Growing tips from our specialist Cut holes in the grow bag, scrape off the seeded straw to provide oxygen to the mycelium, and water with a sprayer. Maintain a stable temperature between 15 and 20°C and high humidity. Nameko prefers cool, humid conditions and is sensitive to temperature. Low indirect light can help stimulate mushroom growth.
