I&#39;m going to lower the temperature to 60F and raise the lighting and humidity levels to hopefully kickstart the fruiting phase.en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/design-challenges/vertical-farming/b/blog/posts/maitake-mushroom-cloning---waiting-to-fruitSat, 20 Oct 2018 03:10:45 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:e3e57d73-3b2e-4de8-b4b2-0cac91220603jw07520<p>Hi R. Scott,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I went back and looked at your previous posts which I had over looked before. Biology is not my focus interest but what you have done is very interesting. This also points out how important it is for one to not get too specialized. Applications of electronics to other sciences abound but are only able to be realized if someone like you is sufficiently diversified and can recognize them. Great Job.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>John</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=5733&AppID=120&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/design-challenges/vertical-farming/b/blog/posts/maitake-mushroom-cloning---waiting-to-fruitSat, 20 Oct 2018 02:17:37 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:e3e57d73-3b2e-4de8-b4b2-0cac91220603dougw1<p>How long do these phases take?
