 +     * Cloning event in June - say around 18-27 June 
 +     * We will see the mycelium 2 weeks beforehand. it looks like a cake. Then shock it (light, maybe cold), open it slightly (fresh air), wait a few days 3-4, then pinning. then 7 days to the mushroom. 4-5 days of mushrooms before they dry out.  
 +     * Cloning from stems. 
 +     * Main event mid/end September. Details to follow. 
 +    
 +   * Ongoing - every 2-3 years beds expending. Logs can produce 2-8 years depending on the type of mushroomwood, size of the log and conditions.
