No hassle, no drilling, no need to source logs and start up a project, simply find a good spot for your log off the ground and out of direct sunlight in the garden. All you need to do is regularly water the log throughout the dry months of summer, and keep an eye out for shiitake mushrooms popping up!
 
Natural, low maintenence method for growing organic shiitake mushrooms at home. The most eco-friendly and sustainable option for at-home mushroom growing!
 
These logs are generally 0-3 months old so you can expect the log to start producing mushrooms anytime from spring to autumn roughly about 3-12 months after receiving.
 
The log will continue to produce mushrooms until it runs out of nutrients and decomposes, usually lasting a few years. 
 
Traditionally, Japanese mushroom farmers have cultivated shiitake on logs for centuries. This method mimics nature where shiitake mushrooms grow on fallen trees and logs in the forest.
