You need something to grow the mushroom on/in, most plants grow in the dirt or as they call it, topsoil or potting soil. We call it "substrate" if it grows mushroom. For substrate I use straw. Other agriculture wastes can also be used, even used coffee grounds, whether by themselves or mixed together.
the straw as it comes from the bale is not suitable as substrate. The size of the strands needs to be between 1½ to 3 inches; also the strands need to be broken or crushed so water can be absorbed. To accomplish this modification, I use a chipper/shredder to chop and crush the straw
The next step in preparing the substrate is to add moisture to the straw; then the straw needs to be pasteurized. Some people wet the straw first and then use steam to pasteurize it. I take the easy way and just "cook" it. The straw is placed into a large wire basket, then placed into a 55 gallon drum full of water that has been heated with a propane burner placed underneath. After spending 1 hour "cooking" in the water at a temperature of 160 F. the straw has absorbed water and pasteurization has occurred. The basket is then raised to let the free water run off.
The mushroom and the green plant
mushroom = fungus; fungus does not = plant
Both GREEN PLANT EX - FERNS and mushroom REPROUDUCE SEXUALLY BY MEANS OF SPORESGREEN PLANT EX - FERNS AND MUSHROOM THEY BOTH STINKThank you
If the mushroom is parasitic on the plant, yes.

No, because a mushroom is not a plant, but a fungus. Fungi are not members of the plant kingdom. In fact, mushrooms are genetically closer to animals than they are to plant.
bacause the mushroom is not a plant while the caulerpa seaweed is an algae plant
A mushroom is a fungus. There is no measurement of how much of a classification of plants is in a plant. So, a mushroom is 100% fungus.
They're a fungus, a plant
