Growing Toque F7 Mushrooms
The Toque F7 is known for its forgiveness to less-than-ideal conditions and is very resistant to contamination. That said, this mushroom is one of the easiest to cultivate. The first flush of the Toque will typically be of large fruits sparsely separated across the growing surface. Subsequent flushes are typically smaller in size but more abundant.
There are a variety of different ways to grow Toque F7 mushrooms. Yet, the most beginner-friendly method is to fruit directly from the bag using an all-in-one bag such as this one from Mushroomsupplies.com. However, if you are looking for more hands-on experience, we would recommend using a grow-chamber setup using grain spawn and a manure-based substrate. We have found that the easiest grow chamber setup consists of using a tin container. You can read the full post on how to grow mushrooms using tin containers here. Below is a summary of this post:
- Inoculate grain bag with 3-5cc of Toque F7 liquid culture or spores via spore syringe.
- Store the inoculated grain bag in a dry area for colonization making sure to maintain a substrate temperature of 84-86. Colonizing mycelium generates its own heat, so an ambient room temperature in the high 70s is recommended.
- Once fully colonized, prepare the tin container and begin layering the substrate and colonized grain. Begin and end with a layer of the substrate.
- Set aside for re-colonization (10-14 days)
- Prepare the li by adding fresh air holes and cover with micro-pore tape.
- Replace the lid and place the tin into fruiting conditions. Reduce the ambient temperatures to reduce the substrate temperatures to 74-78 degrees F.
- Mist the inside of the chamber lid when needed.
- Harvest
Preferred Substrates and Conditions
This strain flourishes on a variety of substrates, giving you some flexibility in your setup. You can use various grain types, compost, or a mix of pasteurized dung and straw—all are excellent choices to support robust growth.
Colonization Phase
During colonization, precise conditions are key to success:
- Temperature: Keep the substrate steady between 82°F and 86°F.
- Humidity: Maintain a fully saturated environment at 100% relative humidity (RH).
- Fresh Air Exchange (FAE): Hold off on any fresh air exchange—0 FAE is the goal here.
Fruiting Phase
Once it’s time for fruiting, adjust your conditions to encourage healthy development:
- Temperature: Lower the substrate temperature to a range of 74°F to 78°F.
- Humidity: Dial back the moisture slightly to 90% relative humidity (RH).
- Fresh Air Exchange (FAE): Introduce fresh air 2 to 5 times per day to keep things thriving.
