I didn't have the time, money, or patience for culturing mushrooms - I tried very briefly. The rinse water thing works for SOME mushrooms. You can also take mushroom which are a bit too old to scatter near places you might like them to grow. If placed at the top of a hill, the spores often wash downhill, too, which can be useful...you'll have them re-spore themselves when it rains heavily.

Last week I read a chapter of Anna Tsing's book about matsutake (yes an entire book about matsutake). She learned (from a japanese lady) not to use metal knives to handle it. She had done once and the taste seemed awful due to not knowing how to prepare it. One interesting observation is that caucasians tend to describe the smell as a smelly sock or rotting fungus and tend to pickle them to erase the smell, while asians (like Tsing) tend to smell all sorts of goodness they associate to the memories they've had from childhood etc. The latter tend to dry grill it, according to Tsing - to enhance the smell. Really fascinating reading. Super interesting to learn about the social networks revolving around matsutake, from japan to oregon. Interesting fact though, Tricholoma nauseosum has been renamed T. matsutake. Note the nauseosum ;)
