Auricularia albida

Auricularia albida was described by Romell as Hirneola albida and transferred to Auricularia by Rick in 1958; both authors worked on South American, mainly Brazilian, fungi. It is not treated in the 2021 global revision of the genus, and GBIF has no usable records, so its status and ecology are uncertain. The conditions below are generalised from tropical and subtropical wood ears.

Where it grows wild

Not documented in the sources consulted; like other wood ears it presumably grows on dead hardwood.

No elevation data.

🔒 Growing it like that

The wild conditions above, turned into targets for a shelf, a tent or a greenhouse. The full profile has:

✓ Day and night temperature targets, and the limits it tolerates
✓ Humidity band, and how to hold it
✓ Light as DLI and PPFD for a grow light
✓ Wet and dry seasons, and whether to rest it
✓ Substrate and airflow
✓ A step-by-step setup to grow it like the wild
