Plants and Fungi

[citrakayah]

I got mushrooms. Oyster mushrooms, specifically. Unfortunately I waited too long before harvesting them and they were a little woody, but once chopped to bits and cooked in butter for a good long time they were tender enough.



I also got a lizard recently. They're an African-fat tailed gecko. Really should upload pictures of them but here's a picture of their enclosure.



And here's the bench it and the rest of my plants are on. I've got a basil, angelwing begonia, a couple cacti, amaryllis, drunkard's dream cactus, and jewel orchid. The jewel orchid would be blooming, but the cats ate them. Again.

The basil, meanwhile, seems to be dying.

Took about a week. And if anything we left them for too long... so I'd honestly suggest eating them sooner, if anything.

Oh, that's fast! I'll have to give that a shot, thanks :)
