Welcome to the site  :D

I'm going to move this post over to Grow Your Own where the veggie folk will see it.  :)
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

You can get innoculated mushroom kits; I think they've had mixed reviews on this site. 

I've just been looking in one of the seed catalogues (Mr Fothergills, others are available too) and they have innoculated grains for various types.

Button mushrooms appear to be grown indoors (cool room, shed, greenhouse or garage)in a bag or crate according to the paper catalogue on my lap.
