Method for cultivating edible fungi on a commercial site, in which a cultivation takes place according to a cultivation cycle which successively comprises one or more preparatory phases and one or more harvesting phases, and in which the site comprises at least a set of cultivation cells (4), in which this set (4) comprises a first cultivation cell (1), a second cultivation cell (2) and a third GO cultivation cell (3) and the cultivation cycle is distributed over these at least three cultivation cells (1, 2, 3) by moving the cultivation from the first cultivation cell (1), in which at least one preparatory phase takes place, to the second cultivation cell (2), in which at least one harvesting phase takes place in the second cultivation cell, and then to the third cultivation cell (3), in which at least one harvesting phase takes place.

A panel of mycological polymer consisting entirely of fungal mycelium as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/190,585 is post-processed to impart desired characteristics thereto, such as, texture, flavor and nutritional profile for use as a foodstuff or a tissue scaffold. Alternatively, the growth conditions of the growth media may be tailored to obtain a desired density, morphology, and/or composition of the undifferentiated fungal material with or without the use of post-processes.

The mycelial foam contains macroscopic void spaces that are formed by filler elements, such as agar beads, that are incorporated in the mycelial matrix during growth of the matrix and are removed from the matrix after growth in a non-destructive manner, such as by heating. The foam may be made of pure mycelium or may be a composite biomaterial.

An edible meat substitute product includes a fibrous mycelium mass in a range of 10 wt % to 100 wt %. The fibrous mycelium mass has a protein content greater than 40 wt % of a dry mass of the fibrous mycelium mass. The edible meat substitute product includes a water content in a range of 0 w % to 90 wt %.

A monokaryotic mycelium sheet producing system for creating a sheet of monokaryotic mycelial material. The mycelium sheet producing system includes a culture unit, a spore stock unit, a plating unit, a section unit, a sub-plating unit, an expanding unit and a colonization unit. The culture unit prepares a monokaryon culture. The spore stock unit grows a plurality of fruit bodies in sterile laboratory conditions to create a spore stock. The plating unit performs a peroxide-based spore rescue and a plating process. The section unit is adaptable to section robust hyphae. The sub-plating unit sub-plates and expands the robust hyphae onto a spawn grain master. The expanding unit subsequently expands the spawn grain master into appropriate production of spawn volume. The colonization unit is adaptable to perform a subsequent colonization of mycelium substrate thereby creating a substantially defect free sheet of mycelium.
