Thanks for that Irene.
I do know of some varieties that attract and digest insects but did not know
about the milk bonnet eating nematodes. żIs that beneficial? Nematodes are
harmful to some farm crops, but are they just a part of 'Natures balance' on
the whole?
I guess being fungi are genetically closer to animals than plants you can't
blame them for wanting a 'burger'!
My parents farmyard (because of farm activity, past livestock,etc) provides
quite a classroom.
I'm starting to think like jsp now Irene, you're awesome;
