Product Overview

Cultivated for its exceptional biological efficiency, this renowned strain is a favourite among commercial operations aiming for massive, abundant flushes. It produces classic, beautifully shaped Shiitake mushrooms with a robust, meaty texture and deeply savoury flavour.

  • 100% Sterile & Lab-Tested: Prepared under strict laboratory conditions to ensure a pristine, contaminant-free culture that guarantees your grains get the absolute best start.

  • Exceptional Culinary Appeal: Yields beautiful, classic Shiitake mushrooms with a thick, satisfying bite and a rich, earthy umami profile that chefs and home cooks crave.

Cultivation Quick Facts

Grower’s Note: Like all Shiitake varieties, patience is required during incubation. The mycelium must undergo a “browning” or “popcorning” phase—where the fully colonized white block develops a brown, protective bark—before it is introduced to fruiting conditions. This phase generally takes 6 to 10 weeks, but the resulting explosion of high-yield mushrooms is incredibly rewarding!

Storage Tip: Shiitake mycelium is incredibly resilient. If you aren’t ready to inoculate right away, simply store the syringe in your refrigerator between 2°C–4°C. It will remain highly viable and ready to grow for up to 6 months!
