spore release: The fruitbody releases spores into the environment for propagation. Spore generation is the sexual reproduction phase of the mushroom life cycle. mature fruitbody: The organism channels all of its energy and nutrients to develop the fruitbody, which will then produce spores. fruitbody selection: From thousands of primordia, the growing organism selects the most promising few to develop into mature fruitbodies. Host Defense harvests during this peak stage of growth to capture an abundant constituent profile including polysaccharides (beta glucans, arabinoxylanes), glycoproteins, ergosterols, triterpenoids and other myco-nutrients. primordia formation: The mushroom organism produces an amazing array of enzymes and optimizes the constituents of both the mycelium and the developing fruitbody. hyphal knot: Mycelium condenses into hyphal knots, which then develop into “primordia” or baby mushrooms. In this sense, the mycelium is the immune system of the mushroom. During this stage of growth, mycelium expands at an exponential rate. In its environment, mycelium encounters many competitors and predators which it repels with an amazing array of protective enzymes and compounds. mycelial expansion: Developing mycelium breaks down organic matter and absorbs nutrients from its surroundings. Compatible hyphae mate to create fertile mycelium.

inoculation: Spores alight upon a growth medium (or substrate). If conditions are favorable, spores will germinate.Fruitbodies form only at the completion of the mushroom life cycle and for most species, occur but for a few days, then disappear.
The mushroom cultivator follows the path of the mushroom life cycle. The mushroom life cycle remains largely invisible to most mushroom hunters not so to cultivators.
