*"Shocking" the vigorous mycelia into fruiting, basically by changing temperature and humidity for a shorter period of time, as to fool the mycelia into thinking that spring is here! Common method is called "cold flushing" (If not shocked, it is possible to store the populated substrate in "hibernation", as a kit). | |||

<blockquote>The last important factor for mushroom growing is providing an appropriate environment both for vegetative andreproductive growth. Not being protected by a skin layer, fungi are easily affected by their growing conditions. Soit can be said that the success or failure of mushroom cultivation depends on the control of growing conditions.Environmental factors affecting mushroom cultivation include temperature, humidity, light and ventilation.Optimal levels of them at vegetative stage differ from those at reproductive stage. | <blockquote>The last important factor for mushroom growing is providing an appropriate environment both for vegetative andreproductive growth.
