ʻO ke ʻano o ka ulu ʻana i nā halo oyster nona nā ʻano ponoʻī. Pono kēia mau halo i ka nui o ka lā, no laila hiki iā lākou ke ulu ʻaʻole wale i loko o ka hale ʻōmaʻomaʻo, e like me nā champignons, akā ma ka ʻāina ākea. Pono kēia i ka mycelium maoli (mycelium) a me ka lāʻau.
No ka hoʻoulu ʻana i nā halo oyster, hoʻololi pinepine ʻia nā kumu i waiho ʻia mai nā kumu lāʻau deciduous e ulu ana ma ka pūnaewele. ʻOki ʻia kahi disk 4-6 kenimika mānoanoa mai ka piko o ke kumu, a mālama ʻia ka ʻokiʻoki me kahi paʻi kūikawā. Pono kona papa mai 5 a 8 millimeters. A laila hoʻokomo ʻia ka disc i ʻoki ʻia a hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua. No laila ʻaʻole maloʻo ka mycelium a ʻaʻole make, ua uhi ʻia ke kumu i ka mauʻu, nā lālā a i ʻole nā lālā coniferous spruce. Ua kūpono ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni no kēia. Inā wela ka lā, pono e hoʻoinu ʻia ka ʻōpala me ka wai maʻemaʻe. I Mei a i Iune paha, pono e hoʻopili ʻia ka mycelium, a i ka hāʻule hiki iā ʻoe ke hōʻiliʻili i ka hua mua. E ʻike ʻia nā halo a hiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hau. Akā ʻo ka kiʻekiʻe o ka huahana i ka lua o ka makahiki. Hiki i ke kumu ke ulu i nā halo ʻoyster a hiki i ka hāʻule hope ʻana i kēlā me kēia manawa.
Hana ʻia ʻo Shiitake ma ke ʻano like me nā halo oyster, i kūkākūkā ʻia ma kahi kiʻekiʻe. Hiki ke ʻoluʻolu kēia ʻaha i ka malu, kokoke i nā pūnāwai, nā pūnāwai, nā loko a me nā kino wai ʻē aʻe. ʻAʻole ia e hoʻopōʻino i ka māla, no laila e ulu nā māla me ka leʻaleʻa. ʻAʻole maikaʻi ʻole, ulu maikaʻi ma luna o nā lāʻau i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia me ka wai, a i ʻole ka sawdust. Makemake ʻo ia i ka wela, akā ola ma kahi mahana o + 4 degere, akā ua make nā hau iā ia.
He ʻono loa ʻo Shiitake, ma hope o ka kuke ʻana, ʻeleʻele kona pāpale. Ua waiwai pū ʻia ka halo no kāna mau lāʻau lapaʻau. Kākoʻo ia i ka palekana o ke kanaka, a me ka hoʻohana lōʻihi ʻana, hiki iā ia ke pale aku i nā maʻi maʻi maʻi.
