Add mushrooms to the database

After reading the books "Gaia's Garden" (on permaculture methods) and "Mycellium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World," I am very high on altering my traditional gardening methods to incorporate the principles in these very exciting books. Especially, the idea of mycopesticides and smartly using the symbiosis between plants and mushrooms to enhance yields, soil quality, water conservation, and garden health will appeal to any gardener who would be using the Easy Bloom. Not only that, Stamet's work has profound implications for how we gardeners can really make a difference for the health of the planet as a whole. I'll bet if you contacted Paul Stamets at Fungus Perfecti (http://www.fungi.com/) he would work with you to make these data available. (Tell him one of his fans who owns two of his books suggested it.) I know the database is an extensive and ongoing project, so just please add this request for long-term development. For me, now, the info on optimal conditions for different species of mushrooms and the plants they partner with is more important than any other aspect of gardening.
