 ## **MYCELLIUM**
 
+For the mycellium, we used the Grown It Yourself kit from [Grown bio](https://www.grown.bio/) which comes with a easy to follow tutorial. There are a few steps to follow.
+
+Steps
+
+- Wear gloves, mask and a lab coat for best sterile environment
+- Sterilize your tools (steam/alcohol) and the space you are going to use
+- Prepare your moulds by sterilising it with alcohol
+- Open the kit, weight the amount of mycelium you want to use and break it down into smaller pieces
+- Add 10% of the weight of mycelium of FLOUR to boost its growth and mix well with the mycelium
+- Put it into the mould and PRESS so that it is really dense inside the mould.
+- Cover with a thin plastic and make some holes on it so that the mycelium can breath
+- You can put it in a dark storage preferably at room temperature (around 22 - 23°C was working well for us)
+- Depending on the size of your mould, give it a week and more to grow (without fruiting !)
+- Dry it using the oven or a dehydrator
+
+For my experimentations I was interested in shapes made with *moules à lamelles* - moulds made of slices that are used for glass blowing. You can see below the experimentations.

 After 5 weeks, we harvested the kombucha. Unfortunatly its environment is too humid and cold so it didn't grow that much. The layer is really fragile and we won't be able to make something out of it :(
