Strands #365
“A fungus among-us”
🔵🔵🔵🟡
🔵🔵🔵
Hi Strands fans. A nice and easy one today, assuming you know your mushrooms.
I had heard of most of them, so was able to find SHIITAKE (top left), BUTTON (right-hand side) and TRUFFLE (top right) straight away.
I then connected the spangram of MUSHROOMS backwards from bottom to top to divide the board in two. That helped me find OYSTER in the bottom-right corner.
Two words were left to find on the opposite side. I vaguely remembered a mushroom ending in OKI, so I connected a few letters in front until I finally got the right combination of ENOKI.
That left one I'd never heard of - CREMINI - to complete the puzzle.
