It starts colonising from April and grows well until November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It grows better fully mature. If opened when fully mature,&nbsp; after three weeks the pins start to grow.&nbsp; It needs to be very wet for fruiting. I have drenched the kit (throwing water over it once a day until it was fully wet) for a few days running to stimulate growth. Nameko needs more moisture than others and dries out quickly. It prefers colder\/lower temperatures, below 20 degrees, but does better below 18 degrees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They will grow well outside in cold weather. They need to be in a covered area if grown outside, so the caps are not exposed to rain. If you do not have a covered area, you can put them in a container with a lid that is left partially open for airflow, but prevents rain on the caps which will make the caps soggy.<br><br><strong>Special instructions:<br><br><\/strong>Must be kept very wet and<strong> <\/strong>indoors or outdoors.\u00a0 Be careful not to allow the small pins to dry out. If kept outdoors, do not let it get soaked by rain. Under a covered patio works well.\u00a0 If the temperature drops below 15<sup>0<\/sup>C at night, move the log inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" id=\"block-e29ae10e-ee52-4c0f-bf66-62120efa5ab1\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-510df039-1b46-4b8c-9be8-b47aa6570621\">Place your order at <a href=\"mailto:orders@mushroomroom.co.za\">orders@mushroomroom.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Also known as Pholiota Nameko.Scientific name Pholiota Microspora.
