"FLORIDA'S SHROOM PICKING CONDITIONS"
If you live in or are planning on
visiting the state of Florida you might find this little chart handy. It is the
average high and low temperatures and the amount of rainfall we have here in Florida.
It is calculated for several different cities around the state so you can see the
better areas for picking in. As most of you already know, what is ideal for
mushrooms to grow is temperatures in the 80's and lots of rain. The idea to add this
section was sent to me by GGreatOne and I thought it worthy of
my website, hopefully you will feel the same.
