Red Reishi, Ganoderma lucidum or Ganoderma multipileum

Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), also nicknamed "the mushroom of immortality," has been valued for millennia in various cultures for its traditional uses. This mushroom contains a variety of bioactive compounds, such as triterpenes and polysaccharides, studied for their role in supporting the immune system and their contribution to a balanced lifestyle.

How to inoculate logs with mycelium on wooden dowels?

Necessary equipment

  • Log or recently cut wood block (max 3 months). Avoid softwood. Most hardwoods are suitable. Contact us if you want more specific information. Log diameter: between 10 and 25 cm. Length: between 50 and 150 cm.
  • Mycelium on dowels: For a length of 1 m, multiply the diameter of a log by 2.5. Example: a log 1 m long and 20 cm wide requires 20 x 2.5 = 50 dowels.
  • Drill and bit of 8-9 mm
  • Hammer
  • Optional: vegetable wax, beeswax, paraffin, or green clay to cover the holes.

Instructions

  • Wash your hands before touching the mycelium to maximize the chances of success.
  • Make the holes in your log. The holes should be slightly deeper than the height of the dowel. Space the holes about 10 cm apart. A 1 m long log requires about 50 dowels.
  • Insert the anchors into the holes using a hammer. The anchors should not protrude from the hole.
  • Cover with wax. The wax is used to protect the mycelium from insects and diseases as well as from drying out. Alternatively, you can also use paraffin, cheese wax, or green clay.

  • Wait: Place your logs in a shaded area, sheltered from the wind. Avoid direct contact with the ground, which could attract small insects and contamination. You can, for example, place them on a pallet covered with a tarp. In case of heat, occasionally pour a watering can of water over the logs to prevent them from drying out.
  • Harvest and enjoy your production. A log made under good conditions can produce mushrooms for 3 to 5 years.

Remarks

The optimal periods to inoculate the logs are autumn, winter, and early spring, before the sap rises.

The main enemy of this culture is drought: cover the wood with a tarp or a veil if necessary to maintain the moisture of the logs, especially during incubation.

We prepare our bags by weight, so there may be slight variations compared to the indicated number.

We inoculate the dowels with a mixture of grain spawn and wood shavings. It is therefore normal to have some sawdust mixed with the dowels. This remaining sawdust can also serve as inoculum.
