- Gently shake to evenly distribute the mycelium.
-
Mycelium development :
- Place the mixture in a dark room at a stable temperature of at least 20°C.
- Let rest for 4 to 5 days until the mycelium filaments develop and the liquid becomes cloudy.
-
Soil inoculation :
- Dig shallow holes or furrows in your garden or natural meadow.
- Fill the holes with a mixture of compost (leaves, wood, straw) or coarsely decomposed humus.
- Spread the mycelium mixture over the moistened substrate.
- Add a thin layer of mulch (dead leaves or straw) to preserve moisture.

Exposure : Meadow Mushrooms prefer well-exposed or semi-shaded areas.
Seasonality and harvest
