Pholiota galapagensis

A Pholiota described by Pegler in 1981 in the Kew Bulletin account of fungi from the Galápagos Islands. GBIF holds no usable wild records, so nothing here is measured; conditions are inferred from the islands' climate and general Pholiota practice.

Where it grows wild

Galápagos Islands, presumably the humid highland zone where most agarics occur; substrate not documented in accessible sources.

Unknown; the humid zone is roughly above 200-400 m on the larger islands.

🔒 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
