Provide moisture if needed and avoid it from totally drying out. Bury wood in mixture of chainsaw shavings (I use mesquite mixed with other spalted wood shavings), leaves (oak), beer (if I have any stale) and my secret ingredient...rotting bananas [
]
I sometimes put my wood in old/damaged large trash bins (40+ gallon). Avoid it packing too tight so there will be some air movement. Or just put wood on soil and cover a bit with the mix to prevent fast drying. Check after 2 months and every month thereafter. Most are ready for harvest after 2-4 months.
I just hope I did more of these. Right now I am not making any...I should.
Good luck!!!
