Amateur mushroom cultivation is becoming more and more popular. Here's how to inoculate wild mushroom mycelium in your own garden. This method gives 100% success in growing mushrooms, but you must stick to a few key tips. Boletes, chanterelles, morels and even truffles.
To sow mushrooms in your garden, you will need a mushroom of the species you want to grow, fresh baker's yeast and sugar. To grow wild mushrooms in your own garden, you need mycelium and spores. When going mushroom picking, also take the overripe mushrooms with you. The so-called mushroom peels, like peeled stems, roots and cut off caps, will also be useful. The mushrooms needed for mycelium application should be fully developed and mature, so that they contain both spores from the cap and mycelium from the stem.
Therefore, you need a cap and a root, they may be worm-infested, but it would be good if they were not completely moldy or dry. The mushroom caps contain mushroom spores, from which mushrooms spread in nature, and the root contains the mycelium needed for the mushroom's development.
It is not enough to just sprinkle  mushrooms  under the trees in the garden, although this method is often used, it is not sufficient for the development of mushrooms. Here's what you need to do:
So, collect the mushrooms and put all the parts in a bucket. The next step is to activate the yeast, which will awaken the fungus spores. Dissolve a cube of fresh yeast in a glass of warm, but not hot, water. It should be around 35-40 degrees Celsius. This is the optimal temperature for yeast multiplication.
Add 3 tablespoons of sugar and 3 tablespoons of flour, mix and set aside for an hour. Sugar is a source of food for yeast and flour for mushrooms,  sugar is also a growth stimulator for mycelium. Yeast is a type of microscopic fungi that has the unusual ability to multiply quickly. Yeast is common in nature.
They live on the soil or rotting fallen fruit, for example as a whitish coating on the skin of decaying plums. However, wild yeasts function as they want, in an unpredictable way, there are relatively few of them and they are unable to consume and process complex sugars.
1 gram of baker's yeast cube contains about 25 billion yeast cells. To  live, they must eat. Various types of sugars feed the yeast. It can be fruit sugar, but also plain white sugar.
Depending on the type of yeast, they perform different functions. Yeast supports many organisms in nature, protecting them against diseases or facilitating healthy functioning as well as reproduction and further proper development.
Research conducted by scientists from the Iraqi Journal of Agricultural Sciences in 2013 showed an increase in oyster mushroom yield by 50% after adding yeast. The results showed that yield and biological efficiency increased with increasing yeast extract concentration.
After waiting an hour for the yeast to activate, add it to the mushrooms and add rainwater. It cannot contain chlorine, because it kills all fungi, viruses and bacteria. There are billions or even trillions of spores in one mushroom. Therefore, it does not take much to inoculate the mycelium.
The minimum dose is 1 liter of water for 1 large mushroom, a teaspoon of sugar and 5 tablespoons of yeast. You can even dilute this solution in a barrel of water. Then the whole thing should be crushed well, for example by crushing it in your hands or grinding the contents in a food processor.
Cover such a mixture with a cloth, or lid and leave it outside for 2-3 weeks in the shade.
It must have access to oxygen. [...]
