Grow premium Truffle seeds (mycorrhizal spores) designed for easy planting and long-term truffle development outdoors. Truffles are underground fungi that grow only through mycorrhizal partnership with certain tree roots, making them unique compared to standard plant seeds. By using these spores to inoculate compatible trees, growers establish a long-lasting network that naturally produces truffles under the soil.

These Non-GMO Truffle spores are suitable for outdoor planting in areas with the correct climate, moisture, and compatible host trees such as oak, hazelnut, and certain pines. Ideal for forest gardens, long-term orchard setups, and truffle cultivation projects.

Features

• Mycorrhizal spores designed to grow truffles through tree root inoculation.
• Ideal for outdoor planting with oak, hazel, and pine trees.

Planting Guide

• Select suitable host tree species such as oak, hazel, or pine.
• Apply spores directly to moist soil around young tree roots.
• Cover lightly with native soil and maintain moderate moisture.
• Keep the planting area free of heavy disturbance to protect root growth.
• Maintain mulch or natural leaf litter to support soil ecology.
• Provide consistent moisture while avoiding soil saturation.
• Allow 13 years for full root colonization.
• Once established, harvest truffles underground during maturity seasons.
• Leave some truffles to maintain spore presence and long-term growth.
