Growing wood mushrooms

Combine oyster mushrooms with mulch and some water to craft shroom slurry - apply to mirkwood logs and after a couple of days collect delicious farmed shrooms. Allows for a couple of harvests before the need to reapply the slurry, similar to refilling garden pots. Would be of course great if we had a bigger variety of wood growing mushrooms, e.g. chicken of the woods or perhaps lion's mane, maybe some with medicinal use?

Splendid idea. As a fungus himself, I am sure OP would love for his idea to be implemented +1

cool idea, additional thought maybe, instead of needing to reapply slurring it slowly consumes the log to generate mushrooms? Maybe not only Mirkwood, but any log and log q can matter? (you can innoculate regular logs irl with mushrooms to farm them this way, the log doesn't need to be already rotting.)

not opposed at all to this, mirkwoods were my first pick since they just look nice. I would advocate for the quality of the log to matter though, influencing the final quality of the harvestable mushrooms - it would be after all an alternative to foraging mushrooms available in the wild, so you ought to be able to produce specimens of higher and stable quality.
