Growing mushrooms typically requires a dim or shaded area which stays cool and moist. This area is put up or found in advance of maintained and growing until the flames are ready for harvesting. However, there might be a moment, whether due to weather or a change in conditions, when you need to transplant the fungus to keep them healthy. If this is needed, the practice is not difficult but does require a hand.
Prepare a location for your mushrooms in a shaded area with rich compost. Set the compost in containers or spread it out above the ground. If you are transplanting into containers, put a 2-inch layer of top soil at the bottom of the container and also the compost at the top.
Mix in a few manure to provide moisture without needing to water. Watering might make it too moist or wash away good nutrients.
Dig across the mushrooms you are transplanting, raising a massive clump of dirt with each mushroom. Eliminate at least 6 inches of dirt from beneath the mushrooms. Place them in a pan another container to transfer them to the new area.
Cover the containers with plastic to prevent them from drying out.
Move the compost over to the side in the new transplant area, to expose the dirt underneath. Place the mushrooms in addition to the exposed dirt, including the 6 inches of dirt that has been dug with the fungus.
Push up the compost to and then across the mushrooms to settle them in to place.
