timeline
Stages and milestones of the box from the image analysis as of 26 Sep 2026. Axis: days since inoculation.
The harvest goes by ripeness, not by the calendar: once the fruiting bodies stop growing taller and their tips thicken. In all the boxes they emerged later than studies report, so the harvest may also come later than planned.
air at rack 3
Tent sensors at the rack, not in the box. Inside the box the air is saturated.
Between 17.8 and 18.8 °C. Most studies grow at 20–22 °C.
