A mushroom farmer from Gongcheng in southern China's Guangxi Province is celebrating after harvesting a bumper crop of giant mushrooms. According to Rong Guiling she has more than 10 fields of white mushrooms of all different species. However, what the fields all have in common is that fact the mushrooms have all grown uncommonly large. Guiling says: "It's hard to find a mushroom which is less than 2kg (4.4 lbs). However, when I bought the spores the person said they were for normal little white mushrooms." Local agricultural experts say the mushrooms' size could possibly be down to the fertilizer she uses, which includes lotus seed shell powder, peanut powder and maize powder
