Frequently Asked Questions

HOW MANY TIMES WILL MY KIT PRODUCE MUSHROOMS?

Depending on species you may get 2-4 flushes. But we guarantee at least one flush of mushrooms.

There are many factors which determine the amount of flushes. Mushrooms are a living organism and it is quite a skill to cultivate them. Humidity, fresh air and temperature are the pillars of mushroom cultivation.

WHAT IS A "FLUSH"?

Besides a hand of playing cards of the same suit. A "flush" in mushroom cultivation is each crop or harvest of mushrooms. Depending on species, they usually appear once every 7-14 days.

HOW MANY MUSHROOMS WILL IT GROW?

Most mushroom kits are token size, ours weigh between 2.2 and 2.6kg. They are what the mushroom industry calls "fruiting blocks".

That said, depending on species, first flushes usually yield 400g-1kg.

Each subsequent flush is usually smaller.

WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR KIT ONCE ITS EXPENDED?

Remove your block from the plastic packaging and

Bury your block in the garden and cover with mulch or soil - this will encourage them to flush again!

Break it up and use as mulch

WHY DID MY MUSHROOMS STOP GROWING?

When there isn't enough humidity around the block, mushroom pins usually stop growing. Don't be alarmed! Your mushroom kit is still alive and can fruit. Simply remove the dried-up pins (mushrooms) and leave the block to rest for a week. After that, soak the block in cold water for 20 minutes, remove all the water from the bag, and begin again.

Please Note: These yield numbers are estimates and actual results can differ, as they're based on the concept of Biological Efficiency.

Lion's Mane Mushroom Grow Kit - Your Ticket to Gourmet Mushrooms at Home

Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a mushroom not only sought out for its delicious flavor, but also for its unique medicinal properties that improve digestive health and cognitive function. It is commonly known as “the smart mushroom” and said to improve memory, mental clarity, and mood. Now you can grow your very own TRUE Lion’s Mane Mushroom!

We emphasize TRUE, because not all Australian products are made from the real thing. In fact, due to historic regulations many are made from a close relative known as the “Coral Tooth Mushroom” (Hericium corraloides) which is also called the “Australian Lion’s Mane”. This is what most Australian growers are producing and selling as Lion’s Mane.

While both of these mushrooms are in the same genus Hericium, they are different species and only distantly related. For example, within the mushroom genus Amanita you have choice edible species and also deadly poisonous ones! While both types of Hericium share a lot in common, only the health benefits of the true Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) have scientific support. For this reason, we offer you the true and scientifically studied Lion's Mane Mushroom in our grow kits.

Enjoy the Health Benefits and Unique Flavor of Lion's Mane Mushrooms

Scientific research indicates that there are numerous potential benefits of Lion's Mane mushroom. This unique mushroom may help elevate mood, boost cognitive function, and fortify the immune system.

Although Lion's Mane is not a miracle cure by itself, incorporating it into your diet can serve as a valuable addition to healthy lifestyle habits.

When is Lion's Mane ready to Harvest?

If you're using our Lion's Mane grow kit, you'll find that the Lion's Mane mushrooms (Hericium erinaceus) are typically ready to harvest when the fruiting bodies have reached full maturity. This usually occurs around 7-14 days after the initial pinning stage.

The ideal time to harvest, especially when using our Lion's Mane grow kit, is when the mushroom's spines or "teeth" are fully developed but still soft and moist.

As a general rule, it's best to harvest Lion's Mane before the spines begin to dry out or turn brown, as this indicates that the mushroom is past its prime.

Lion's Mane Growth

After a while, you will notice small, dense clusters of mycelium forming at the cut. This is when the excitement begins! Over the course of 7-14 days, these tiny clusters will gradually expand, ultimately developing into full-sized Lion's Mane mushrooms.

How Do I Grow It?

Step 1
Step 2
Step 3

Place your block on its side and where the block presses against the plastic, take a sharp clean knife and make a 10-12cm cut along this part of the bag (you could cut an “x” shape or a simple line).

Place your sliced bag in a humid part of your home (near the kitchen sink or bathroom). Make sure it is kept away from direct sunlight, and keep it well hydrated. Do this by spraying the outside of your block, over the sliced area, with water at least once per day but preferably 2-3 times.

The mushrooms can take 2-6 weeks to fruit, but will usually appear within 5-7 days. Once they appear, keep watch, they grow very fast and will be ready to harvest in 7-21 days. Harvest them all at once by gently grasping the mushrooms at the base, twist and pull.

Great kit

Ordered both the pink oyster and lion's mane kits. Great projects that just require misting a few times a day! I set them up on my kitchen bench and have already had a first flush - looks like second flush is coming up now (pink oysters grew super fast in a week). Very happy with these kits thanks!

I love Lions mane

This product was great, I loved watching them grow and eating them was a treat, they are so tasty and have a meaty texture. The mushroom guy was very helpful and answered all my questions. I would fully recommend trying this amazingly healthy and tasty product.

Lions mane

First time growing mushrooms and it couldn’t have been easier. Instructions were super easy to follow. We now have a huge lions mane mushroom affectionately called Martin growing on our bench top.

Great Kit!

Works as described, got a monster mushroom growing already! Too easy, I'll probably get a couple more to keep them on a rotation. Thank you!

So glad to hear you're already growing a monster mushroom! thanks for the awesome feedback!
