Organic Reishi Mushroom Grow Kit Fruiting Block by North Spore

Fulfilled by our friends at North Spore This reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) fruiting block features a strain that is widely cultivated in Asia. Reishi is an edible medicinal mushroom known as “Ling Zhi” in China and “Reishi" or "Manetake” in Japan. Reishi mushrooms are one of the easiest of all of our fruiting block kits, as they are very reliable producers and require next to no upkeep. That's because they can live their entire life cycle within an unopened bag! Reishi take their time and grow very slowly. Depending on your needs, you can harvest your kit early when the mushrooms resemble antlers and are only a few inches tall. Or, you can allow the mushrooms several more months in the bag to form more interesting growth patterns. You can also try for mature mushroom caps, which requires more supervision as well as opening the bag (which is described in the directions section below). This is a more challenging method, but can be very rewarding for those who have some prior experience wit
