Mushrooms growing in the wild from wild spores are the success stories of an odds game played by each particular mushroom species. Mushrooms choose to produce thousands of spores in a scattershot approach to reproduction. The more spores floating about in the wind, dispersed by rain, moved about by insects and other critters, the better chance of finding the perfect environment to grow. The vast majority of spores dispersed will never result in a growing mushroom fruit-body. At North Spore we've selected for productive strains of edible fungi to maximize the success rate for people who use our spawn!
