Our Shiitake Mushroom Grow Kits ship during the start of the "curing" stage which help produce large, beautiful, delicious mushrooms. Take your cooking experience to the next level and enjoy the rich flavor on top of health benefits provided by the shiitake mushroom. Our Shiitake 5 pound grow kits use a proprietary mix of
hardwood & grain spawn. Using only first generation mycelium, our
colonized bags produce around 2.5-3 pounds of mushrooms. Easy to use, just
cut and mist or place the bag in a clear tote along with a small amount
of water and mist daily.

Shiitake: Everyone has heard of shiitake mushrooms. Probably the most widely cultivated mushroom at home, and most popular variety for cooking! Our shiitake strain is very aggressive and usually produces a large amount of mushrooms over several flushes. We ship these during the curing stage which is when the outer layer of mycelium turns brown and forms a hard leather-like skin. Waiting to introduce light later in its life produces higher quality mushrooms. This is how professional growers produce the large shiitake mushrooms that you might find at restaurants and grocery stores. Shiitake is extremely easy to grow and can produce mushrooms for months!
