    I thought I would follow up my thread of last week "there's a tree growing out of the side of my house" - which I didn't think I could top with this week's grand revelation - there's mushrooms growing in my window box - which is a herb garden I have on the inside of my kitchen window... whatever next???

    Oops, that doesn't sound good. Maybe you are watering too much? Although, I'm wondering how the mushroom spore got there in the first place. LOL

    They're pointed like arrow heads and the top bit is bright yellow. Weird hey? What - do you think they are magic mushrooms or something like that? P.S. Luna, I have to keep watering the window box, because it's been up to 30 degrees C here and inside of my double glazing, the window box dries up in a day or two. Also, about the spores... I guess they must just float in the air???

    They sound interesting...might need to do some research on mushroom varieties and see whatcha got growing there, ballistic.

    I watched a Canadian movie where this British guy comes to Canada (BC specifically) and he's given mushroom tea. He says, "What's this for, so I can see Aztec gods?" And the guy goes, "No, no. Local mushrooms: local gods!"

    I'm getting a digital camera this week to take to Mikes BBQ next week, perhaps I'll take a picture of this so you can see what I'm talking about.

    Very cool.

    Once we lived in a house and sometimes when the weather was humid or rainy and we'd be out of town for a few days, we'd come home to find mushrooms growing from the grout by our bathtub.

    LOL - that's bizarre, I can just imagine you heading into the bathroom with a pair of sheers to prepare for breakfast.

    I looked up some Psilocybe mushrooms on the web and it doesn't really look like that, besides, I think I would be too scared to try a mushroom which if I got it wrong might actually kill me.
