Trametes merisma

Trametes merisma is a polypore described by Charles Peck in 1910 from Fine, St. Lawrence County, New York. GBIF holds only the 1909 type-area collections and nothing is published about it beyond the description; it may be a synonym of a commoner northern Trametes. Conditions are generalised from temperate Trametes and the measured climate at that site.

✓ 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
