Our pre-colonised Lion’s Mane Mushroom Fruiting Block Kit doesn't include spores or liquid culture, as it is already pre-colonised with Lion's Mane mycelium and ready to fruit. 

Fortunately, it’s really easy to use; you just need to follow our guides by clicking here.

Physical copy of the growing guide: You can find our online step-by-step mushroom growing guide here, as well as some of our own tips and tricks for optimising your grow. We highly recommend reading it before purchasing!

Please aim to use your Lion’s Mane Mushroom Fruiting Block Kit soon after receiving it. If you are not using it right away, store the bagin the fridge. Stored this way, your kit should last at least 3 months.

Please refer to delivery details.

Lion’s Mane mushrooms typically take about 1 to 2 weeks to start fruiting from a fully colonised block, provided the conditions are optimal. This timeframe depends on maintaining the right environment, including high humidity (80-95%), temperatures around 15-25°C (59-72°F), and proper air exchange. Once pins appear, they can mature into full-sized fruiting bodies within another 5 to 10 days.

Biological products, by their very nature, can be unpredictable and sometimes things don’t go as planned. Growing mushrooms is always a battle against contamination, and sometimes it wins.  

When things go wrong, don’t worry. We offer replacements for contaminated kits or substrates as our guarantee.  

Ensure the humidity is high by misting two or three times daily or using a humidity chamber. Make sure there's enough airflow by providing proper ventilation. Keep the temperature between 15-25°C (59-72°F)and place the kit in indirect light. If the substrate looks dry, mist more often or soak it briefly and let it drain. Sometimes, it just takes more time, so be patient. Check for any contamination, like mold. If you still need help, contact our support team!

Browning in Lion’s Mane mushrooms usually indicates environmental issues such as low humidity, excessive airflow, or high temperatures. These mushrooms thrive in high humidity (85-95%) and moderate temperatures of 15-25°C (59-72°F). If the environment is too dry or the airflow is too strong, the fruiting bodies can dry out and turn brown. Additionally, browning can occur if the mushrooms are overmature or exposed to contamination. Regularly misting, controlling airflow, and maintaining consistent conditions are key to preventing this issue.  

To address browning, first ensure that humidity levels are high and that there is gentle, consistent airflow without directly blowing on the mushrooms. Check the temperature to keep it within the optimal range, and consider harvesting sooner if you notice the fruits are aging. If contamination is suspected, remove affected areas and improve air exchange. Proper care should restore the natural white colour and encourage the characteristic fractal-like growth of healthy Lion's Mane fruiting bodies.

Yields can vary substantially based on the genetics of the mushrooms you’re growing, environmental conditions and size of the kit you purchased. Typically, you can expect to grow 1kg+ fresh mushrooms over several flushes from our 1.25kg or 2kg (depending on selection) fruiting blocks.
