LION'S MANE Hericium Erinaceus, organic

Growing conditions:

Temperature: 15-(18)-23°C

RH: 80-98%

CO₂: 500-1000 ppm

Light: >1000 lux

Time: Growth phase from cut: 7-16 days
Maturation phase after the mushroom arrives: 10-14 days

Potential yield: 700-1000g, spread over several harvests

How does the grow kit work?

Step 1:

Cut a hole in the bag of approx. 5-10cm in diameter.

Step 2:

Squeeze the air out of the bag.

Step 3:

Spray water on the substrate and keep it moist at all times until the fungus emerges, then only moisten the area around the fungus. Do not spray directly on the fungus, as this will increase the chance of bacterial growth on the fungus.

Step 4:

The mushroom is ready to harvest when the spikes have started to develop and become approx. 3-5mm long, or turn yellowish. The yellowish color of the fungus is not necessarily dangerous when there are often signs of aging and/or drying out.

Step 5:

When the mushroom has been harvested, it is important to remove all fruit body remains on the substrate in the cut area before the next round.

Tape the old hole and make another cut somewhere else on the bag.

Then repeat all the steps to initiate the potentially multiple harvests that the grow kit can provide. This is taken with the caveat that the grow set does not dry out in the environment in which it has been placed.

Tips.

No. 1.

If the grow set is placed in a very dry environment such as in a new building or in winter with extra dry air and has heat sources screwed on, then it is recommended to make a mini-greenhouse with a transparent bag that will help keep the humidity up.

No. 2.

When the growing set is empty of energy and no more mushrooms are produced, you can take the substrate mass out of the growing bag and dig the substrate into a pallet frame or vegetable garden and cover with soil approx. 5 cm to prevent drying out of the substrate. When the weather is wet and there are plus degrees, there is a high probability that the grow set will spread and live on and produce even more mushrooms! And last but not least, the used substrate is a fantastic soil conditioner that will provide good breeding ground for microbiological life.

Production time:

Normally we have new batches of Porcupine soup/Lion's mane ready every week, but please note that there may be 1-3 weeks production time to ensure quality and viability.

NB.
This grow kit contains live mushroom culture.
Productivity and viability may be reduced if not used within one week of receipt.

The shelf life before use can be extended to 2 months by storing in a refrigerator at 1-4c degrees .

* Right of withdrawal does not apply to cultivation sets.
