1/26 Mushroom Garden Instructions

Today Matt informed me that he had the materials for the mycelium project and that we would begin. Here's a summary of the procedure on the box...

Step 1 says to place the box indoors and to keep it from direct sunlight.

Step 2 says to open the front panel (it has a perforated rectangle for easy opening) and cut a 3x5 inch "+" (plus sign) into the bag.
