The most commonly used <a href=\"https:\/\/pevgrow.com\/en\/mushroom-grow-bag.html\">magic mushroom cultivation substrate<\/a> is a mixture of vermiculite and brown rice flour, known as PF Tek. This stage can take <strong>approximately 1-2 days<\/strong>, depending on the amount you prepare.<\/p>\n<p><em>*Inoculation<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Inoculation involves introducing Psilocybe cubensis spores into the substrate. This is generally done using a <a href=\"https:\/\/pevgrow.com\/en\/4686-magic-mushroom-spores\">magic mushroom spore syringe<\/a>. After inoculation, the substrate must be kept in a dark place with a stable temperature of about 23-27\u00b0C. The time from inoculation to the first signs of mycelium (the white root network of the fungus) is usually <strong>1 to 2 weeks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>*Incubation Phase<\/em><\/p>\n<p>During incubation, the mycelium fully colonizes the substrate. This process can take <strong>2 to 4 weeks<\/strong>. It is crucial to keep the substrate out of direct light and under stable temperature conditions to promote healthy mycelium growth.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fruiting_Phase\"><\/span>Fruiting Phase<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Once the substrate is fully colonized, it is time to expose it to conditions that induce fruiting. This includes increasing exposure to light (indirect natural light or fluorescent light) and maintaining high humidity (between 90% and 95%) and a slightly lower temperature, around 22-25\u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p>The first signs of fruiting, known as primordia or \u201cpins,\u201d will appear <strong>approximately one week after initiating fruiting conditions<\/strong>.
