You may have to add some fertilizer chemicals to the slurry. Oyster mushroom, Pleurotus sojar kaju is a good edible mushroom which would grow on substrate containing lignin.

I'm looking for information (and experience) on growing edible mushrooms using anaerobic digestate. I'm trying to get the most out of processing of waste organics. I've grown button mushrooms but have read that the digestate isn't good for growing them. Maybe there are other types of mushrooms that can be grown. We will have straw and other farm residues available to us. Also if I can use dry digestion I get to keep nutrients in the digestate that would normally be in the liquor. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
