"One option would be to inoculate the hay on purpose. You’d still have mushrooms growing on them, but you’d know it was a safe type of mushroom. “King Stropharia” is a good mushroom for that. It not only loves growing in hay and straw, it also forms symbiotic relationships with some vegetable species, making the plants healthier and stronger."

Thanks! I will look into this.
