Description
- THE IDEAL STARTER KIT FOR GROWING ON LOGS: These kits were designed with everything you need to start growing on logs! Each kit contains a drill bit, log sealing wax, a wax applicator, 100 ct plug spawn, and instruction guide. (Mushroom plugs work best for small to medium log inoculation projects. 100 count packs are usually enough for 1-2 logs.)
- 100% MADE IN USA: Plug spawn is handmade in Maine from the highest quality cultures by expert Mycologists.
- FOR BEST RESULTS: Shiitake mushrooms should be grown the following wood species: Alder, Beech, Hophornbeam, Hornbeam, Hard Maple, Oak, Sweetgum, Basswood, Birch, Chestnut, Eucalyptus, Hickory, Soft Maple, Pecan, Sassafrass, Sycamore, Tuliptree, Tupelo, or Willow.
- LOG COLONIZATION: Be patient! Growing on logs takes time. Depending on the species, it will take at approximately 12 months for the log to fully colonize. Most mushrooms will fruit in the spring, summer, or sometimes in the fall when temps are cooler.
- STORING PLUG SPAWN: If you don't plan to use immediately, you can refrigerate your spawn for up to 6 months.
- THAT’S NOT MOLD, IT’S MYCELIUM: Your kit includes plug spawn colonized with mushroom mycelium. It may appear covered with a soft, white, mold-like substance - that's the mushroom mycelium! It is completely normal. The mycelium of some species is more prominent than others.
