Pholiota rubra

A red Pholiota described from southern China by Bi Zhishu, Loh and colleagues in 1985. GBIF has no usable wild records, so there is no measured range or climate. The conditions assume Guangdong's humid subtropical forest and are generalised from the genus.

✓ 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
