My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Have I killed them

14 years ago

I bought some shitake plugs last year and drilled some holes into some logs that came off a tree that dropped a few branches in a storm.

I've had them in various conditions from snow to hot dry weather mainly because I didn't have space to look after them properly. I also put them remaining plugs in some sawdust seaed in a plastic bag.

There's been no obvious signs of anything in either the bag or the logs. Should I redo them properly or should I wait even longer?

Regards

Nick
