fructified boxes
Explanation:
Fructification chambers, fructification rooms, etc. generates a lot of google hits in relation to mushroom culture. Am assuming these boxes, chambers, etc. already contain mushrooms in them that have fructified, i.e., are ready for harvest.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I’m sorry I should have added more text. After the crates have been placed in “Zuchträumen” there follows a 2 week “Fruktifikation Phase” during which the crates are watered. At the end of this period the crates are: “an die Züchter ausgeliefert” who presumably continue the growing process, so when the crates are delivered to the growers, the mushrooms are only at an early stage of growth.
