I've been wondering what I could/should be adding to my hot compost, 
so this bit of information comes at just the right moment. Are there 
other things that it would be good to add?

Specifically, is there something I can add to the composting 
materials that would benefit the fungi? We've got lots of fungi 
around here, thanks to piles of composting donkey manure mixed with 
shredded bark which we use to keep the stableyard mud-free. When I 
dig into those piles I find long, long strands of fungi.

Can I 'seed' the hot compost bins with the fungal compost and then 
add something to the mix to encourage its growth?
