I wonder if it matters if it’s white oak or red oak. I built a kayak using white oak for the ribs due in part to its resistance to rot (I.e. fungal digestion) That suggests it might not be great for growing mushrooms
Excellent stuff! I am also on Cape and grow shiitakes on oak. After plugging, the first growth was pm licorice ( a good pseudonym as I think further🤔). I found that the shiitake came in, though delayed. Those logs still producing strong!

Enjoy your wordplay!
Thanks David. Hope to see you at a Cape Cod Mycological Society walk soon :)
