Lactarius Indigo
    #22089709 - 08/14/15 12:22 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Hey all. Had this crazy idea to try and cultivate Lactarius Indigo. So from what I know it can't be cultivated cause it grows on lives trees? So I was interested in collecting a sample and using it to LC to wood grain. What would stop it and why exactly can't this be cultivated in a controlled environment?

Yes, it is ectomycorrhizal (a form of symbiotic relationship that occurs between a fungal symbiont and the roots of various plant species)
It wouldn't work well in a controlled environment because too many factors play into the mushrooms life-cycle ie. yeasts, sugars and bacteria are needed from certain plants for the mushrooms to grow. People have spent million of dollars trying to grow truffles in non-native environments with little to no success. IMO the best thing you could do is spread spores of these mushrooms in identical habitats in which they were found but do not currently grow and hope for the best, don't hold your breath because it might take years for the mushrooms to gather up enough nutrients to finally fruit.

truffles are ectomycorrhizal as well? The times ive seen the indigo, its always around an oak tree with heavy foliage. The video above is actually my own. So your saying i wouldnt get far even if i introduced these yeast and bacteria to the environment?

I don't think it would be possible to introduce the right mixture of the things needed to get them to grow. You should try though I suppose, I don't mean to sound defeatist, hell maybe we will all learn something new from it.
If were trying to get them to grow I would put the LC (or whatever you plan on using) around oaks under heavy foliage, like the environment in which you found them in.
You almost certainly won't get them to grow in a monotub in your closet, but if you do you will become a billionaire.

That's the idea right? Couldn't hurt to try,  but sounds like i wouldn't be the first. Maybe cross breeding or something might help. Maybe I'll attempt LC and a grain transfer to see if anything happens

There's at least 5 more appropriate forums on this site for this post as far as getting answers about cultivating. Nice video though and great find!
