Description

THE HASSLE FREE, READY TO FRUIT SOLUTION TO GROWING LION’S MANE AT HOME

Lion’s Mane has been treasured in Asia for thousands of years due to its cognitive and nerve benefits. Some reports even suggest that Buddhist Shaolin monks used Lion's Mane tea to increase cognitive function and improve their focus during meditation, allowing them to reach deeper states of consciousness. 

Today, Lion’s Mane is best known for its nootropic or brain-enhancing benefits. Scientific research has found that Lion’s Mane mushroom contains terpene compounds, called hericenones and erinacines, which can cross the blood brain barrier and stimulate the production of a protein called Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). NGF can repair, maintain and develop neurons in the brain, helping to protect it from neurodegenerative conditions and promoting cognitive function, focus and memory. 

Besides the many potential health benefits, Lion’s Mane is a highly adaptable mushroom can be used in a variety of preparations - cooked, dried, turned into an extract, or even brewed as a tea. Lion's Mane is also celebrated for its culinary properties. Serving as an excellent substitute for meat, its flavour and texture, particularly when cooked, bear an uncanny resemblance to the succulent consistency and taste of crab meat. 

Growing your own Lion's Mane mushroom and reaping its incredible benefits has never been easier with our Lion's Mane Grow Kit. Whether you’re a seasoned grower or a complete beginner, our kit takes the guesswork out of mushroom cultivation and turns it into a fun, straightforward process. Say goodbye to complex setups and hello to thick, dense, and luscious clusters of mushrooms, ready to be cooked, extracted or made into a tea.  

Our kit comes with everything you need in one convenient package: a pre-colonised fruiting block that is ready to go right out of the box—no need for messy inoculations or waiting periods. Simply follow our easy step-by-step guide, and watch your mushrooms grow! With minimal effort and space required, you’ll be harvesting beautiful, therapeutic Lion's Mane mushrooms in no time. 

The process is simple: 

  1. TOP FRUITING: Cut the top off the bag just below the seal to let air in. Mist once or twice a day and watch your Lion's Mane mushrooms flourish! 
  2. SIDE FRUITING: For a different approach, cut a small "X" or slit in the side of the bag for mushrooms to grow outwards. Mist daily to keep the cut area moist. 
  3. HUMIDITY-CONTROLLED CHAMBER: For optimal growth, place the fruiting block in a chamber like a MonoTub or Martha tent, as this will help to maintain optimum fruiting conditions  

Gone are the days of having to trawl through decade-old forum posts to figure out the fascinating but often confusing science that is growing mushrooms. Our step-by-step, easy-to-follow guide ensures a successful harvest, eliminating guesswork and making the whole process a breeze.

INGREDIENTS

Good ingredients make for good grow kits. That is why we only use our 100% natural and organic grain and masters mix substrate in our kits. We only use the best, natural ingredients for our products, so you get the best mushrooms. 

Our proprietary substrate blend is a mix of optimally hydrated millet grains, milo grains, hardwood pellets, soy hulls and gypsum. This mixture is carefully hydrated to field capacity and sterilised in a computer-controlled steam autoclave for 2 hours at 121°C. The result is an optimal 6:1 substrate to spawn ratio. This is then inoculated with our own Lion’s Mane liquid culture, the substrate providing the perfect nutrient rich environment for mycelium, ensuring rapid colonisation, large yields, and minimal risk of contamination. After a period of a few weeks the substrate is fully colonised and ready to ship to customers.

FAQ

DOES THIS COME WITH SPORES OR CULTURE SYRINGE?

There is NO spore or culture syringe included with the Blank Grain Spawn Bag. It is non-inoculated to allow you to inject the species of your choice. Liquid cultures for gourmet varieties are available here.

HOW MANY SYRINGES DO I NEED?

You only need 5ml of spore or liquid culture solution for one uninoculated bag. We don’t recommend using more than 5ml per bag, because too much liquid can throw off the moisture content within the bag.

Fruiting kits don't need to be inoculated as they are pre-colonised and ready to fruit.

You can store any used solution in the fridge for future use. Stored that way, they’ll keep for many months

HOW DO I STORE THIS GROW KIT?

Some popular types of mushrooms that can be grown with our kits include Oyster mushrooms, Shiitake mushrooms, Lion’s Mane, Reishi, Chaga, Turkey Tail and many others that are legal and safe for cultivation at home.

It’s important to note that while our kits can technically support the growth of various types of mushrooms, we strongly advise against and do not condone the use of our kits for the cultivation of mushrooms that are illegal to grow in your country. This is due to the legal restrictions in many regions, including the UK where we are based, it is illegal to cultivate certain species of mushrooms.

At Martian Mushrooms, we are committed to promoting responsible and legal use of our products. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone suspected of intending to use our products for illegal purposes.

CAN I GROW MULTIPLE TYPES OF MUSHROOMS WITH THE SAME KIT?

We dont recommend growing more than one type of mushroom per kit. Growing multiple types of mushrooms may result in poor flushes.
