I have a hypsozigus tessalatus-beech (spelling butchered) culture I cloned from store bought I'm thinking of growing once or twice before I buy a plate from you guys but I know almost nothing about it. On grain it grows really slowly but really dense. What kind of incubation time am I looking at? Is it fast fruiting  like oysters or need to sit a long time like chestnut or shiitake? Also just got brick caps to fruit the first time recently but really disappointed. Only 6 mushrooms and I can't even find anyone that has got them to fruit before, that was like 5 months of incubation on the successful block....... Not successful but it fruited. Cased with non sterile compost, stamets book noted they need micro organisms in the casing to initiate a pin set. Any idea how to grow them properly? If not no worries it's just a side project
