- and,
- allowing the morel mycelia to grow 2-3 cm through the layer of loose soil and into the compost;
- flipping the spawn, by flipping the filled mushroom spawn bag onto the ground for seeding, the flipping including
- cutting off the top of the mushroom spawn bag to create an opening in the bag;
- flipping the cut, and filled mushroom spawn bag onto the ground for seeding, the opening providing direct contact between the inoculated layer of soil and the ground;
- and
- compressing the filled mushroom spawn bag onto the ground;
- managing the humidity of the ground to have a surface soil moisture of 70-85%;
- and, harvesting the morels;
- wherein the mushroom spawn bag comprises a body and a cap, the cap is capped on the body, air holes are arranged at the side or bottom of the body, and a layer of air-permeable filter material covers the air holes.
