Growing Instructions

Lion’s Mane Growing Kit

**To ensure success, please start the fruiting process within 2 days of purchasing.
Fruiting - Place your bag in the most humid part of your home and outside of direct
sunlight. We suggest putting it on a kitchen counter close to a sink where it will be near
a source of moisture. Put a plate under the bag to catch any excess moisture.


Cut an 'X', ½” to ¾” in size in 6 different places on the bag, or simply poke up to 6 holes
with a pencil. Mist the outside of the kit where the cuts or holes were made with fresh
water at least 2-3 times a day. Use a spray bottle and tap water for this step. DO NOT
remove any plastic from the bag. Do not hold the plastic back when spraying. The
mushroom mycelium will sense the oxygen in the air and produce mushroom ‘pins’,
another word for baby mushrooms.


Harvesting- Harvest lion's mane when the mushroom forms visible ‘teeth’ and before it
starts to yellow. Mushrooms grow quickly, so when you spot your first pins keep an eye
on them. The warmer the environment the faster they will grow. Mushrooms should be
ready 2-5 days after pin formation.

After you’ve harvested your first flush of mushrooms, continue spraying 2-3x daily.
If it's looking a bit dry, you can cover it with a humidity tent. It's important to keep it
hydrated throughout the process. There's no need to take the block out of the bag or cut
a second X in it. It may take a little longer for mushrooms to appear every subsequent
fruiting. In 2-3 weeks, you should start to see baby mushrooms (pins) forming again.

 

Store the freshly harvested mushrooms in a paper bag in the refrigerator. Cooking
mushrooms prior to consumption is recommended.

Oyster Mushroom Growing Kit

When the sawdust block is white and has been completely colonized by
mushroom mycelium. Slice 4-6 X’s into the plastic with a sharp knife or
scissors.

 

Fill a spray bottle with tap water and generously spritz the plastic where you
sliced your X’s. Spritz your kit at least twice daily - more if you're in a
particularly dry climate. Place your kit in the most humid part of your home
and outside of direct sunlight. We suggest putting it on a kitchen counter close
to a sink. The mushroom mycelium will sense the oxygen in the air and
produce mushroom 'pins,' another term for 'baby mushrooms.' Once the pins
start to form, it is very important to keep them moist. You may have to
increase the spraying to 4-5 times a day.


It usually takes 5-14 days for pins to form. Once pins begin to form,
mushrooms will grow quickly. So when you spot your first pins keep an eye on
them. The warmer the environment the faster they will grow. Mushrooms
should be ready to harvest 2-5 days after pin formation.
