Thats mad. I was talking about this today to a customer who is a health food guru.
I remeber my friends growing some in a bowl???
I seem to remeber that you drink the water and then give some of the mushroom (or whatever ) to a friend that then grows it and so on.
Is it the same thing?

Yeah sort of. You continue your batch every 6 to 10 days so it's constantly brewing. Every week your "mushroom" or culture grows a baby and you can give it to a friend.

It's some good stuff. You make it with tea and sugar and water and let the mushroom "eat" the sugar throughout the week. It sort of excretes vitamins and antioxidants but that makes it sound gross.

I used to do that alot, not for some time though. inconsistency in batch taste and effectiveness turned me off to it. and all the damn fruit flies it attracted to my place.

Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama
