This product is designed for easy and efficient growth. However, it's crucial not to remove it from the bag or uncover large areas of the block, even if there are many primordia under the foil. If you find fruiting body primordia (cauliflower-like, hard to touch) under the foil, make 1-2 cuts (4-8cm) where the primordia are largest. Leave smaller primordia under the foil. This product thrives in cool places like basements or garages.

It requires a lot of fresh air for proper growth, so make sure to ventilate the room several times a day or leave windows slightly open. In non-winter periods, outdoor cultivation is preferred in a place sheltered from wind and sun. Ensure high air humidity and mist with water. Indoor cultivation is also possible, although it may be more challenging. Keep the product away from heat sources.

The cut can be misted several times a day. Natural or artificial light for 7-10 hours a day is beneficial. Air humidifiers, especially ultrasonic ones producing mist, are very useful in cultivation. If you have one, set the mist near the mycelium. Do not pull the block out of the bag or make large cuts.

When you see hairs on the fruiting body, it's a sign that it's ready to be harvested. Fruiting bodies should be twisted off by hand. They may come out with some substrate. After the first harvest, the block rests for a few days, after which another flush appears.

The block can produce up to 4 flushes. After use, the mycelium can be used as a natural fertilizer for plants. Once dried, it can also be used as a briquette for burning, for example, in a fireplace.
