Part 6/7:
Humidity and Light: Keep the mushrooms in a humid setting and provide indirect light. A window, out of direct sunlight, is suitable for this purpose.
Misting: Regular misting two to three times a day will help maintain the necessary moisture levels.
Within days of managing the right conditions, tiny mushroom pins will appear, signaling it's time to sit back and watch them grow—often doubling in size daily!
Harvesting and Reusing Mycelium
When the mushrooms are ready for harvest, collect them before their caps fully open to prevent spore dispersal. Simply twist and pull the mushrooms free.
Once an initial crop is done, a second or even third flush of mushrooms may be possible from the same straw. This can be done by keeping the humidity levels up.
