Cultivation of Pluteus salicinus?
    #6453964 - 01/12/07 10:22 PM (17 years, 4 months ago)

Does anyone have any information on the possibility to cultivate this species?

I've been told that they are quite common in NW Europe, growing on willow.

I am working on it now that I have spores, but progress is slow. An exhaustive internet search only produced one reference to fruiting a related species, Pluteus cervinus, on exhausted shiitake blocks. Every Pluteus I have seen in a natural setting is growing on very well decayed wood. They probably won't fruit on fresher substrates. I'll post if I make any significant progress but don't expect anything soon.

I have some spores also, it doesn't seem to like fresh wood at all.
I inoculated some sterile sawdust and with an agar wedge and it isn't doing much.

Every Pluteus I have seen in a natural setting is growing on very well decayed wood.

Yep, me too.

I'm going to try some different substrates. Coffee grounds, year and a half old wood chips(somewhat decayed), a couple of PF sort of jars: ground Hen of the Woods with vermiculite, ground oysters with vermiculite, and ground Resinous polypore with vermiculite. And one or two jars of Resinous polypore
just by itself.

The Hen I used to make tea so it's been leached. The oysters are ones that I had dried earlier this year and were just ground and then rehydrated. The Resinous polypore I collected with this in mind earlier this year, it was also leached before sterilizing.

I'm not even sure that I have Pluteus growing since the spores I have are far from clean. :smile:

What does the mycelium look like?  What does it smell like?

I have one strain that is mostly linear apressed, white and turns brown or slate grey with age and also gets somewhat cottony with age, and another that is cottony and so far remains white.

I spoke too soon about it not colonizing sawdust, whatever I am growing does,
it is very fine and hard to see till it is fully colonized.
