Chestnut mushroom yield

First yield from this: log inoculation using sawdust spawn

These are lovely, they have a nice nutty flavor and are very, very tender. Hence why I've never seen them in a store.

One of the joys of gourmet mushroom cultivation is having access to all these edible species that I would otherwise never get to taste.

I was supposed to bury these per the north spore instructions but they seem to be doing just fine above ground?
