Details: Truffles grow a few inches down in the earth, in symbiosis with the roots of hardwood trees like oaks, chestnut, hazelnut, and hornbeam. The irregularly shaped knobby little spheres range in size from an inch or so across to over a pound (though truffles of that size are rare). The firm flesh of a white truffle is pale cream to light brown in color, with white marbling throughout.Planting instructions: To produce a nice harvest of truffles, you will need a lot of lands to be able to plant the number of trees that you’ll need. Truffles require a soil pH of 7.5 to 8.3. Next, you’ll need to plan an irrigation system. Cover the seeds with a layer of land to in near the trees. After planting the seeds, gently water them and keep them moist. As you can tell, growing truffles is not an overnight success story. It takes lots of time and effort to make them produce. But watering is one of the things that causes people to give up so soon because they require so much water. Most people have found that training a truffle dog is the easiest way to harvest your truffles. This will save you a lot of time and effort with digging into the ground only to find that there weren’t any truffles. Finally, around a few years, it will be time to harvest your truffles. When you decide to grow truffles, you need to be sure that you live in an area where you have 4 solid seasons. The reason is that truffles need a change in temperature to prosper. Amateur cultivation of mycorrhizal and other soil mushrooms doesn’t give a guaranteed result as the harvest of mushrooms strongly depends on the weather and many other factors. Attention! A very important factor for the successful cultivation of mushrooms is the acidity of the soil. For this mushroom, the optimum acidity is Ph = 7,5 - 8.3. Happy harvest!
