Consejos de cultivo
Plant Tuber melanosporum-inoculated oak or hazel seedlings from certified nurseries; verify mycorrhizal colonization of root tips before purchasing.
First truffles typically appear 5-8 years after planting; trained truffle dogs (preferred over pigs) are used to locate the underground fruiting bodies.
Maintain the 'brule' (burnt zone) around producing trees — a bare, weed-free area that indicates active truffle mycelium; avoid competing mycorrhizal species.
