g'day ivan,

over her we buy it from the farm and just tip it into the agrden break
it up a bit and then plnat into it, some care is neded as it can still
get hot for the plants but leaving it spread out in the bed with no
mulch on it for a couple of weeks helps that.

do a google for mushroom farms near you.

Well I bought some mushroom compost!!
I'm beginning to think I bought too much though. How much should be
used in a raised bed in proportion to potting mix?
By what you said it makes it seem as if though you're planting
directly into the mushroom compost.. Is this the right thing to do?
