🌱 Instructions for use
Follow the user guide to ensure the success of your cultivation and harvest.
To start, expel the air from the bag by making a small cut on the top if necessary. Fold the plastic to the side and hold it with tape or by laying it on its side.
Then, make two 5 cm cross-shaped cuts on each side of the block. The substrate must remain moist; use a spray if needed. Primordia appear after 1 to 2 weeks and develop in 1 to 2 weeks.
Harvest the mushrooms when the spines (teeth) measure about 5 mm. If the mushrooms yellow before this stage, they were probably stressed by drafts or temperature changes. Harvest them then and wait for the next crop.

🏡 Where to grow your mushrooms?
Ideal for indoor growing (kitchen, garage, cellar), Lion's Mane enjoys indirect sunlight. Avoid drafts, heaters, and direct sun exposure.
🍄 Harvest and storage
You can make 3 to 4 harvests with this type of block. To harvest, gently pull the cluster by twisting it. Remove all remaining stem pieces to prevent rotting and harming future harvests. After a few days of rest, soak the block overnight in water, drain it, then wait for the next harvest.
Lion's Mane keeps for about 5 days in the refrigerator in a paper bag. For longer storage, dry them and grind into powder.
