you'd be shocked at how easy it is to grow most edible mushrooms. all you need to grow oysters is a syringe full of spores and some uncle bens pre-cooked vacuum sealed rice. If you want to do lion's mane or other more complex growing cycles like that, just add a rubbermade tub half full of vermiculite and coconut coir. You can be in this hobby for like $100 up front and then like $30/batch. And yes you can grow those mushrooms, where legal of course. I haven't tried it but it seems to be no more difficult than the ones I've successfully grown, and the rice trick actually comes from that community (google "uncle ben tek" for more info)

Used to be sword fighting, but difficult after I got into an accident and can barely use my hand anymore...
Ham radio! It's relaxing. My favorite activity is to take my portable gear to parks and operate Parks on the Air.
Just getting into Ham radio and SDR myself as of late, so cool and so fun to tweak around with. Got any recommendations for guides or articles to read and learn from? I'm brand new just got a SDR-RTL dongle ๐ก
You should check out Ham Radio Crash Cpurse on YouTube. Lots of great info there.
What do you think about the baofeng radios with ham? Pretty good to start out with?
They are fine for starting out with, but you'll probably want to upgrade soon. There are better radios for around $75 if you can afford it.
What would you recommend? Is there a good mega thread here?
Most activity, I've seen here: [email protected] but there's a lemmy bug that's not showing a bunch of posts. That should be resolved soon.
These are good cheaper radios (The price has gone up a bit)
Raising ducks. I love it. They're disgusting creatures, but great.
How are they disgusting? When I see them they look quite cute.
Drive by the duck farms in North Jersey and get back to me.
