occidentalis Posted April 20, 2007 Some fungi will fruit invitro, even with the small amount of substrate found on a plate. Perhaps shiitake likes to fruit at low temps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rev Posted April 20, 2007 reliably so whn ive had plates or jars or bags of susbtarte about and the autumn changes comes through they all automatically go to fruiting mode a warm weather shiitake strain is something i dont have. all mine are cool weather ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
