Flower mushroom is actually a kind of Lentinus edodes. However, it is very different from other kinds of Lentinus edodes. The top of its mushroom has large spots and lines. Other mushrooms generally do not have spots, or the spots are relatively small. Therefore, we can judge whether a mushroom is a flower mushroom from the size of the spots on the top of the mushroom

It should be kept in the ambient humidity of 45% - 65% and the humidity of the plant should be kept in the normal environment. Otherwise it will be difficult to survive. The general mushroom does not have so many requirements for the environment. It can grow as long as it is in a warm and slightly wet environment

Usually, ordinary fresh mushrooms can be sold for 5-8 yuan per kilogram, and dry mushrooms can be sold for 30-40 yuan per kilogram. The price of mushroom is higher. Generally, fresh mushroom can be sold for 12-20 yuan per kilogram, while dry mushroom can be sold for 60-150 yuan per kilogram
