Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) is a well-known mushroom species valued for its resilience and consistent yields. Our grain spawn is specifically prepared for efficient colonization, supporting the production of medium-to-large mushrooms with characteristic umbrella-shaped brown caps. Ideal for intermediate growers, shiitake is a versatile species that thrives in various conditions, making it a staple for hobbyists and small-scale cultivators alike.

    Instructions

    To fruit mushrooms, you can mix shiitake grain spawn into sterilized sawdust substrate. If you've never used grain spawn before, make sure to read a mushroom cultivation book or watch a video tutorial online.
