== The Growing Process ==
There are numerous ways to successfully grow oyster and shiitake mushrooms, all of which share the same basic steps and principles. More details on each point is below.
*Creating a growing environment; humidity is key, temperature seems important as well. It also needs to reduce the risk of contamination from alien bacteria.
*Getting spores (several methods: )
*Preparing the growing medium (several methods: ). Needs to be sterilized!
*Inoculation of spores into the growing medium.
*Maintaining conditions for growth in the growing environment (several methods: )
*Optional: Stopping the process and turning the mycelim populated medium into a kit that is "hibernated"
