The Mystery of Growing Mushrooms and Hydroponic Plants
Humans have been cultivating plants and mushrooms for food and medicine for thousands of years. The supplies we sell at Mountain Lion Garden Supply make these activities approachable and easier to do at home hobbyist scale.
We will be discussing different ways to grow plants hydroponically and how it compares to growing in other media. We will also discuss equipment needs, natural pest control and different fertilizers for indoor gardening. Finally, we will touch upon home mushroom cultivation and lead into the mushroom cultivation workshop the following week.
Free Community program

The workshop will consist of a discussion of different techniques of cultivating culinary mushrooms at home. There will be a demonstration of some of these techniques and the equipment used.
