Are my mushroom logs toast?
It looks like there’s contamination. A few months after I covered the inoculation sites with the soy wax that I purchased from the vendor, I noticed that the wax was pretty much gone.
Fast forward to now, one year later, there appears to be mycelium growing in patches across different areas of each of the logs, but there are also small fungi.

Plum tree issue

Traditional Grains: A Path to Sensible and Relevant Food Security
Zimbabwe and many parts of Southern Africa have long relied on maize as the staple crop. However, the increasing climate variability even in good rainfall years like 2025 and the 2024 El Niño-induced drought have exposed maize’s vulnerabilities. Traditional grains such as finger millet, sorghum, and pearl millet are proving to be more resilient and sustainable, both nutritionally and environmentally. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has emphasized the importance of diversifying staple crops to improve food and nutrition security across the region. This piece shares the growing urgency around transitioning from maize to traditional grains such as finger millet, sorghum, and pearl millet, particularly in the context of arid Zimbabwe and broader Southern Africa.

Hope for endangered penguins as no-fishing zones agreed off South Africa
Deal will restrict fishing near colonies on Robben Island and Bird Island for 10 years, after long debate between industry and conservationists
Efforts to stop the critically endangered African penguin from going extinct took a step forward on Tuesday after South African conservationists and fishing industry groups reached a legal settlement on no-fishing zones around six of the penguins’ major breeding colonies.
Sardine and anchovy fishing will not be allowed for 12 miles (20km) around the penguin colony off Cape Town on Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned, and Bird Island, across the bay from Gqeberha, also known as Port Elizabeth. There will be more limited closures around four other colonies, according to a court order formalising the agreement.

Confusion about nitrogen fixing plants
I am confused. Some websites say that gooseberries, blueberries, blackberries and elderberries are nitrogen fixing plants. Some websites deny this information. Which statement is correct then? Where can I find correct information about plants that actually fix nitrogen (books, website)? What plants (shrubs – potentially with edible fruits) do you suggest I plant in my food forest (EU – continental climate)?
