Details

This kit contains a tube of liquid mycelium of Bordeaux Boletes (Boletus edulis), produced under optimal sterile conditions. The mycelium is ready to be diluted in a sugar water solution before being inoculated onto suitable soil.

Bordeaux Boletes live in mycorrhizal symbiosis with host trees such as:

• Oaks
• Beeches
• Chestnut trees
• Pines and firs

Their biotopes include forest edges or wooded areas with a litter rich in organic matter.

Product advantages:

• Suitable for both amateurs and experts.
• Compatible with natural environments or wooded gardens.
• Produces boletes prized for their exceptional taste and unique texture.
• Allows repeated fruiting under ideal conditions.
• Contribute to a natural ecosystem in symbiosis with the trees.

Cultivation instructions

1. Preparation of the sugar water mixture :

   • Use bottled mineral water to minimize chlorine presence.
   • Add an apple- or lemon-based syrup without preservatives (10% of the water volume).
   • Shake the mycelium tube well, then mix it at a rate of 10 ml per liter of sugar water.

2. Mycelium development :

   • Keep the mixture away from light, at a stable temperature of at least 20°C.
   • After 4 to 5 days, the liquid becomes cloudy, a sign of mycelium filament development.

3. Soil inoculation :

   • Dig holes or trenches about 20 cm deep around the target trees, about 1 meter from the trunk.
   • Fill these holes with a mixture of forest compost (decomposed leaves, wood, straw) or enriched soil.
   • Spread the liquid mycelium over this substrate, then add a thin layer of dead leaves to retain moisture.

4. Environmental conditions :

   • Moisture : Maintain constant humidity by lightly watering during dry periods.
   • Temperature : Favor a moderate climate between 10°C and 25°C.
   • Exposure : Place the inoculated areas in shade or partial shade with indirect light access.

Seasonality and harvest

• Inoculation : Spring or early autumn, when conditions are mild and humid.
• Expected fruiting : The first boletes can appear after 2 to 3 years, usually after heavy rains, from spring to autumn. Once established, the cultivation can last several years.

Transform your garden or a forest into a true mushroom sanctuary. Grow your own Bordeaux Boletus and enjoy the pleasure of a home harvest.
