Cultivation Instructions

3. Incubation :

   • Leave the solution in a dark place at a stable temperature (minimum 20°C).
   • After 10 days, the mixture becomes cloudy and small filaments should appear, indicating mycelium development.

4. Substrate inoculation :

   • For indoor cultivation: Mix the mycelium with a moistened substrate and place it in well-ventilated bags or containers.
   • For outdoor cultivation: Insert the mycelium into holes drilled in logs or incorporate it into straw bales. Maintain moisture and place in a shaded environment.

1. Fruiting :

     • Reduced temperature to 15-20°C.
     • Moderate indirect light.
     • High humidity (85-90%, to be maintained with a humidifier or by regularly misting).
   • Make cuts in the bag to allow the mushrooms to grow.

2. Harvest :

   • Harvest oyster mushrooms when their caps are well formed.
   • One substrate bag can produce up to 3 mushroom cycles over a period of 2 to 3 months.
