Learn how to grow shiitake mushrooms at home year after year. Fungi Farm’s mushroom logs that we have for sale gives you years of shiitake mushrooms that you can continue to harvest from your garden. Shiitake mushrooms are a low-maintenance addition to your garden that requires minimal attention; with proper placement, the log will continue to grow shiitakes each season, or even every few months, if you prefer.
Shiitake mushroom logs are easy to care for and grow naturally without the need for seeding, weeding, or extra maintenance. Fungi Farms plants the shiitake mushrooms’ mycelia cells inside the log, which sets the stage for shiitake mushrooms to grow. Once the mycelia cells are in place, the shiitakes will continue to grow even when the outer mushrooms are removed for eating. Simply place the shiitake log in a cool, damp area with some sunlight, (not direct sunlight) and the shiitakes will grow naturally.
Log grown Shiitakes (NOT sawdust grown) provide high levels of protein (18% by mass), potassium, niacin and B vitamins, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus. The Shiitake mushroom also contains all eight essential amino acids and according to the American Cancer Society, is known to fight the development & progression of cancer & AIDS by boosting the bodies immune system.
