Growing Mushroooms from plug spawn

I recently obtained 7 species of mushroom spawn, 100 dowel plugs per species, from a firm in Oregon. I am experimenting with setting these up in logs of broad-leafed maple, Garry oak, Bitter Cherry and Grand fir from the farm.

I have the logs stored under the Douglas fir trees on a scaffold.2015-11-03mushroomhang
