'''Cultivate mushroom''' is an [[Knowledge Points|amateur]]-status [[Sage Ability|sage ability]] in the [[Sage Study|study]] of [[Fungi (sage study)|Fungi]], governing the practice of growing mushrooms in order to produce food or sources for the making of medicinal cures. Mushrooms are not plants and require different conditions for optimal growth. This can include the employment of creatures such as leafcutter ants, termites, beetles and snails to promote growth.

Instead of seeds, mushrooms produce asexually through spores; it is the contamination of spores that make mushroom growing difficult, as it can destroy a whole crop. Cultivating mushrooms therefore requires a controlled environment and labor. Typical cultivation rooms are 200 square feet in area, requiring a day of tending (8 hours) every seven days. For each day after 10 days of not tending the crop, there is a 10% chance of the spores becoming contaminated, initiating a disease that will destroy 10% of the crop every three days.

Yield is 50 lbs. of mushrooms per month. If poisonous mushrooms are grown, 3 lbs. of fungi mass can be substituted for vegetable matter in [[Prepare Ingestive Poisons (sage ability)|making ingestive poisons]].

 '''Cultivate mushroom''' is an [[Knowledge Points|amateur]]-status [[Sage Ability|sage ability]] in the [[Sage Study|study]] of [[Fungi (sage study)|Fungi]], governing the practice of growing mushrooms for food production or as a source for creating medicinal cures. Unlike plants, mushrooms have unique biological requirements for optimal growth, necessitating specialised knowledge and care. This includes understanding their need for specific conditions such as humidity, temperature and darkness, as well as the possible use of symbiotic creatures like leafcutter ants, termites, beetles and snails to enhance cultivation.

-Instead of seeds, mushrooms produce asexually through spores; it is the contamination of spores that make mushroom growing difficult, as it can destroy a whole crop. Cultivating mushrooms therefore requires a controlled environment and labor. Typical cultivation rooms are 200 square feet in area, requiring a day of tending (8 hours) every seven days. For each day after 10 days of not tending the crop, there is a 10% chance of the spores becoming contaminated, initiating a disease that will destroy 10% of the crop every three days.
+Mushrooms reproduce through spores, not seeds, and the high risk of spore contamination makes cultivation a meticulous process. Spores that become contaminated can devastate an entire crop, requiring cultivators to maintain a carefully controlled environment. Mushroom cultivation typically occurs in enclosed spaces designed for this purpose, such as growing rooms of approximately 200 square feet. These spaces must be tended for 8 hours every seven days to ensure optimal conditions. Neglecting the crop introduces a 10% chance of spore contamination for each day beyond ten days without tending. Once contamination sets in, the resulting disease will destroy 10% of the crop every three days until remedied or the crop is lost.

+Under ideal conditions, a successful crop yields 50 lbs. of mushrooms per month. If the cultivator chooses to grow poisonous mushrooms, 3 lbs. of the resulting fungi mass can be substituted for vegetable matter in [[Prepare Ingestive Poisons (sage ability)|making ingestive poisons]]. This alternative use highlights the potential versatility of the skill, whether applied to food production, medicinal preparation or more nefarious purposes.
