Wood Blewit Fruiting Conditions
Wood Blewits are best grown outside in your garden
Wood Blewit mushrooms (Lepista nuda) require certain conditions for optimal fruiting. Some of the key conditions are:
Temperature: The optimal fruiting temperature for Wood Blewits is between 45-60°F (7-15°C). They can tolerate slightly higher temperatures but fruiting will slow down or stop at temperatures above 70°F (21°C).
Humidity: The relative humidity should be kept between 85-95% during fruiting to maintain adequate moisture levels and prevent the formation of dry, inedible fruitbodies.
Fresh Air Exchange (FAE): Adequate FAE is important for Wood Blewits to maintain healthy growth and prevent buildup of harmful gases. A minimum of 1-2 exchanges of fresh air per hour is recommended during fruiting.
Light: Wood Blewits do not have specific lighting requirements during fruiting and can fruit successfully in environments with low light levels, including complete darkness. However, they can benefit from exposure to light, which can help regulate the length of the photoperiod.
It’s important to note that these are general guidelines and conditions may vary depending on the specific strain, substrate, and fruiting chamber setup.

Wood Blewit Fruiting Temperature
The optimal fruiting temperature for Wood Blewit mushrooms (Lepista nuda) is between 45-60°F (7-15°C). This species is a cool-loving mushroom that does best in cooler temperatures. They can tolerate slightly higher temperatures, but fruiting will slow down or stop at temperatures above 70°F (21°C). Maintaining the correct temperature range is important for optimal fruiting and to prevent the growth of unwanted mold or bacteria that can compete with the mushrooms for resources.
Wood Blewit Fruiting Humidity
The optimal relative humidity for Wood Blewit mushrooms (Lepista nuda) during fruiting is between 85-95%. High humidity is important for this species to maintain adequate moisture levels and prevent the formation of dry, inedible fruitbodies. Additionally, maint
aining high humidity can also help prevent the growth of unwanted mold or bacteria that can compete with the mushrooms for resources. Good air exchange can help regulate humidity levels in the fruiting environment.

Wood Blewit Fruiting Co2
Wood Blewit mushrooms (Lepista nuda) do not have specific requirements for carbon dioxide (CO2) levels during fruiting. They can fruit successfully in environments with normal atmospheric CO2 levels, which are typically around 400-450 ppm. However, it is important to maintain good air exchange in the fruiting environment to ensure that the mushrooms receive adequate levels of fresh air and CO2.

Wood Blewit Fruiting Fresh Air Exchange (FAE)
Fresh Air Exchange (FAE) is important for Wood Blewit mushrooms (Lepista nuda) during fruiting as it helps to regulate humidity levels, prevent buildup of harmful gases, and provide the mushrooms with adequate levels of oxygen for growth. A minimum of 1-2 exchanges of fresh air per hour is recommended during the fruiting phase. This can be achieved by using fans or other air exchange systems, or by simply opening the fruiting chamber to allow fresh air in and out. Over-exposure to fresh air can cause stress and slow down fruiting, so it is important to strike a balance between providing adequate FAE and avoiding drastic fluctuations in environmental conditions.
Wood Blewit mushrooms (Lepista nuda) do not have specific lighting requirements during fruiting. They can fruit successfully in environments with low light levels, including complete darkness. However, they can benefit from exposure to light, which can help regulate the length of the photoperiod. If using artificial light, a fluorescent bulb or LED grow light with a red/blue spectrum can be used to provide adequate light without creating too much heat or altering the temperature of the fruiting environment. Light levels can be kept low, around 20-50 lux, as long as the mushrooms receive enough FAE to maintain healthy growth.
