They will probably work okay without them. It seems likely that those collars tended to hold water and promote the rusting of themselves and the mushrooms. There may be some concern about whether the rusting collar means that the mushroom is about to fall off. - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
