smaller branches and rice water thrown over il at
intervals TO prepare IL for the mushroom. In For

Of mushrooms, while in Japan IL takes three They
Improve IN size and flavor up to the third year
This mushroom was grown in Shinchiku Prefec-
ture, about forty miles south Of Taihoku but
not of very good quality. the climate apparently
being too warm. They now growing il in the
