About Lucas
Hello, my name is Lucas and I am a mycology enthusiast with years of knowledge built up from researching and cultivating a large variety of fungi. My goal is to share the information I have amassed, with you, anyone else with a passion for mycology, a passing interest or anyone interested in the medicinal properties many mushrooms provide. From improved cognition, potentially preventing Alzheimer's with lion's mane; to fighting cancer with the shiitake. The cultivation of fungi is an incredibly rewarding experience, going from a microscopic spore to a fully ripened fruiting body in as little as a few weeks, depending on species. Exotic mushrooms can be very expensive, so if you have an interest in fungi it is almost always cheaper to grow them yourself.
