• Compatible with natural environments or wooded gardens.
• Suitable for outdoor cultivation under ideal conditions.
• Produces tasty and high-quality Hedgehogs.
• Environmentally friendly and sustainable method.
• Allows repeated fruiting if the mycelium is well maintained.

2. Mycelium development :
