The mycelia of Poria cocos will decompose the matrix components under suitable external conditions, choose to absorb and transform into their own nutrients, and gradually increase. When the mycelium forms in large quantities and occupies the whole matrix, it agglomerates in the suitable place to form sclerotia. When the sclerotia developed to a certain extent in the soil, the sclerotia gradually expanded upward and the upper part of the soil surface was exposed, and milky flake small honeycomb fruiting bodies were produced below the exposed soil surface. After the fruiting body matures, a large number of spores are released from the fruiting body layer. Under suitable conditions, the spores germinated and grew, formed a new mycelium and began a new generation of life.
