By making a controlled tubular environment, we realised that we can provoke the direction of mycelial growth through our planting system. The mycelium, reaches out - in hunt for nutrients, and in doing so can connect multiple planting points to one and other through the network. Once the connection is established the plants can benefit from the system by sharing nutrients with one and other. We experimented with various nutrient rich substrates for the mycelium to inhabit, but found that used coffee grounds, rich in nitrogen and phosphorus encouraged fast and stable growth. With this knowledge, we’ve managed to vacuum form inoculated substrates and create living panels, capable of housing, and taking care of the plants in our system.
