Second question is about what you burn. Can the wood be green? Can you burn small twigs with leaves on them or maybe grass clippings?
Do you actually make a fire I thought that the process pyrolysis, does that actually burn?

Terra preta works well in humid, tropical regions, where it was developed.
Not so well elsewhere, unless you can mimic the conditions.
Georgia does a good imitation of humid, tropical regions.

Flour is baby food for fungi. When you make up plating media to start spores, you use about 1-2% starch (flour) and 0.5% gelatin or agar (protein) to make up your media. These very easily digestible molecules allow the spores to get a good start on life while they are hunting for a mate.
Yes, fungi do thing rather backwards from us animals. Animals are born, they grow up and sexually mature and then they mate. Fungal spores are 'born' into hyphae, they mate with the closest available partner, and then they grow.
