Mushroom pics
I got an e-mail back from Dr. Klomparens who forwarded my message to Dr. Stan Flegler.

I've been watering the mushrooms every 3 or 4 days and putting some water on the cardboard and wood shavings underneath to keep the humidity up. There is a little bit of fuzz in the wood shavings, I'm not sure if it is a mushroom or a competitor mold.
On further research, it looks like mushroom hyphae! Hooray! Here are close up pictures:
The mushroom life cycle:
I think right now I am somewhere between the hyphae mating and imperfect stage.
I sent the pictures to Dr. Klomparens from MSU who specializes in electron micrographs in fungi (as per her faculty phonebook bio) so I hope she can help identify the life cycle.
