What happens here
Once the plugs are sealed, position the logs for the colonization period. The video mentions that logs tend to perform a little better when laid down on the ground, likely retaining more moisture and maintaining a more consistent temperature. However, they can also perform well if set upright against a tree or support. Choose a shaded, humid location for optimal mycelial growth, out of direct sunlight and drying winds.
Goal: Place the inoculated logs in an environment conducive to mycelial growth and mushroom production.
