Lion's mane is awesome! * 1
    #26634496 - 04/28/20 02:14 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Finally I managed to grow my own Lion's Mane! Really happy that they turned out rather well, all thanks to the abundance of information provided by all the great people here <3
Today was the day of the very first harvest of these funny pom-poms:grin:





Yield of the first flush was 109g, which is ok for ~550g dry weight of substrate, I guess?

What I really like is that they are such fast colonizers. It's very hard to judge in the beginning,
since the mycelium is so thin and whispy. It runs through grains and substrate as fast as Oysters
I would say, but you hardly see it, and then all of a sudden the hole jar/bag turns white.
Therefore, I shake my grains a few days after inocculation even when it looks like there is hardly
any grow. There is plenty, you just don't see it.

Will definitely prepare more bags of them in the future, as the taste is really good.
Quite surprising for the first time, since it's not the usual nutty mushroom flavor one would expect.
Could be a faint of lobster, but with a very 'fresh' mushroom taste. I cannot really compare it to anything else.

Now I only need to fix the problem of my deformed oysters...

mush love

These look good. What kind of fruiting environment are you using? Lion“s mane is my next project...

For the substrate I created some wheat grain spawn and used that to inocculate bags with pasteurized  HWFP, adding roughly 20% of spawn per bag. When it starts pinning in the bag, cut small slits in the bag and move to your fruiting area. Keep humidity and air exchange as high as you can (>90%Rh and almost constant FAE) and you'll be successful:thumbup:

Great Job! What did you use for fruiting? I'm thinking of trying some more hands-off method than what I've been doing -

I've had great luck with just a perlite lined clear tote, lid off center, misting and fanning every time I peek at it. I love how fast they grow. Everyone in the fam likes to peek, so they're all trained to mist and fan! lol

Yum! (I just finished cooking with a month's worth of blue oysters, time to rotate LM again!)
