Cauliflower mushroom cultivation ?

I found a huge Sparassis crispa specimen yesterday that I'm about to clone to agar and wondered if anyone could give me some info on cultivating this species. I've heard it's covered in GGMM but unfortunately don't have a copy yet.

I attempted cloning just few days ago. I don't have a copy of GGMM here but generally it's grown like other woodlovers. It can be grown indoors on sawdust and requires relatively low fruiting temps. There are some articles about it on: www.mushworld.com

Thanks for the reply zeronio
I've already checked mushworld and found 2 articles but only 1 on cultivation which was very vague.
There must be someone out there with a copy of GGMM at hand

Growth Parameters
Spawn run: Incubation temperature: 70-75f (21-25c) relative humidity: 90-100% duration: 20-25days co2 : >5,000ppm fresh air exchanges: 1 per hour light requirements: n/a
Primordia formation: Initiation temperature: 50-60f (10-16c) relative humidity: 95-100% duration: 7-14 days co2: 500 - 1,000 ppm fresh air exchanges: 5-7 per hour light requirements: 1,000-1,500(2,000) lux
Fruitbody development: temperature: 55-65f (13-18c) relative humidity: 85-90% (95%) duration: 7-14 days co2: 500-1,000 ppm fresh air exchanges: 5-7 per hour light requirements: 1,000-1,500 lux
Natural habitat: Growing at the base of coniferous trees ( pines, Douglas firs) and in the eastern North America and Europe on oaks from late July through November, preferring older forests.
Fragrance Signature: Grain spawns musty smelling, not pleasant.
Recommended courses for expansion of mycelial mass to achieve fruiting: Standard agar-to-grain, grain-to-grain transfers or via liquid fermentation for the begiing of the grain sequence.
Substrates for fruiting: sawdust from oak, alder, cottonwoods/poplars, aspen, and elm support mature fruitbody development. Supplementation rates, from my experience, should not exceed 15% of the sawdust mass.
hope this helps

If you have success, would you trade some spores/myc ? Would like to give it also a try ...

Hey MushMuhi,
are you typing that, or have you got a "online copy" of GGMM ?
