 The word "MYCORRHIZAE" only refers to the RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ROOT AN=
D
THE FUNGI…..you cannot add that to anything. It is not a spore or a fungi=
.
Just an often, improperly used word.

THE FUNGI to which you refer are MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI. Mycorrhizae vs
mycorrhizal fungi...two different things.

Sorry for being so picky, but not really!

Why do you want to grow mycorrhizal fungi in tea?

Teaming,
