    The Nameko mushroom is a delicious and unique addition to any dish. Their nutty, earthy flavor and slippery texture are a beloved characteristic in Japanese cuisine. But their amazing taste isn't the only reason to love these mushrooms. While growing, Nameko mushrooms produce a thick, clear goop on the cap that gives them their incredible flavor and major health benefits. With high levels of antioxidants and immune-boosting properties, they're a nutritious addition to any diet. And with some studies even suggesting that they may have anti-cancer properties, they're a mushroom you don't want to miss out on.


    While Nameko Mushroom Grow Kits are reliable, they do require some extra attention and patience. These mushrooms prefer cooler temperatures and higher humidity, so using a humidity tent or humidity-controlled fruiting chamber can help with moisture issues as long as proper gas exchange is maintained. But don't worry - with our 5 pound grow kits that use a proprietary mix of hardwood and grain spawn and only first generation mycelium, producing 1.5-2 pounds of fresh mushrooms is easy. Just cut and mist, or place the bag in a clear tote along with a small amount of water and mist daily.

    So why not try something new and experiment with these small but mighty mushrooms? The Nameko mushroom might be small, but it packs a big punch of flavor and nutrition that will take your meals to the next level.

    To get the best yield results with our gourmet mushroom grow kits, we recommend using one of our monotubs. Check them out here!

    You can also use one of our humidity domes. Find those here!

    Here are some details on the ideal fruiting temperature, light cycle, water cycle, and average yield for growing Nameko mushrooms:

    • Fruiting temperature: Nameko mushrooms fruit best at a temperature range of 50-65°F (10-18°C). Lower temperatures will result in slower growth, while higher temperatures can cause the mushrooms to become deformed or fail to form.
    • Light cycle: Nameko mushrooms do not require light to fruit, and in fact, should be grown in a low-light environment. Exposing the mushrooms to direct sunlight or bright light can cause the mushrooms to dry out and turn brown.
    • Water cycle: Nameko mushrooms require high humidity to fruit properly. The ideal humidity range is between 85-95%, which can be achieved by misting the mushrooms with water several times a day or by using a humidifier. The substrate should be kept moist but not waterlogged, and excess water should be drained off to prevent mold growth.
    • Average yield: The yield of a Nameko mushroom grow kit can vary depending on the conditions, but a kit with 5 lbs of substrate can typically yield 1-2 lbs of fresh Nameko mushrooms. This can vary depending on factors such as temperature, humidity, and the skill of the grower.

      It should be emphasized that cultivating mushrooms can be a sensitive undertaking, demanding meticulousness and precise control over environmental conditions. To ensure success, it is advisable to adhere to the guidance included in the Nameko mushroom grow kit, and to conduct further research on the subject before commencing. It's important to note that "cold shock" may be needed to induce pinning for Nameko mushrooms.

      Nameko mushrooms are a type of small, amber-colored mushroom that are commonly used in Japanese cuisine. They have a slippery texture when cooked and a slightly nutty and earthy flavor. Nameko mushrooms are often used in miso soup, udon noodles, and stir-fries. They are also sometimes used as a garnish for sushi and sashimi dishes. In addition to their culinary uses, Nameko mushrooms are believed to have several health benefits, including being high in antioxidants and having immune-boosting properties.

      Took a while for these to grow but was impressed with the mushrooms once they finished growing. Very interesting looking mushrooms but taste great in soups! Will be purchasing again.
