Looking over the wikipedia page on this mushroom and all the similar, very edible ones...Yeah I'm never foraging mushrooms.

And this is why I grow my own. I'm very fond of Albino Texas PE6. Easy to grow, consistent, and you can clone and agar spawn over and over again. Such an aggressive little strain. And looks very distinct. Unmistakable.

There's nice little kits you can buy online for your kitchen. :)

Those don't have very good reputations among growers. Bunch of crap you don't need, and the stuff you do need is garbage quality.

Nah, but they're easy for laymen. If you've got links to affordable kits for beginners pls share.

Edit: How could I forget. One of my favourite physical food stands at a public market I used to go to sells kits online. They're good people.
