Small Shiitake-Inoculated Oak Logs: Discover the joy of growing gourmet mushrooms with ArborActive’s expertly prepared Shiitake-inoculated logs. Perfect for beginners and seasoned cultivators, our logs come with Shiitake mycelium already introduced, setting you up for a successful growing experience.
Manageable Size for Shipping and Smaller Spaces: Each log is cut to a manageable length of 11- 13inches length with a diameter of 3-4 inches, making them easy to handle and ideal for personal use. They come inoculated and ready to go. Since logs are freshly cut and inoculated, you should expect 6-18 months before logs are ready to fruit for 2-3 years.
Premium Wood Selection: Oak is renowned for its excellent properties for Shiitake cultivation, offering the right balance of density and porosity for optimal mushroom development. We use fresh-cut Oak logs, one of the best species for cultivating Shiitakes, to provide a superior substrate.
Beginner-Friendly Experience: As a first-time grower, you can expect your Shiitake logs to start fruiting within 6 to 12 months, depending on care and environmental conditions. Our logs are designed to be low-maintenance and produce mushrooms for several years with proper care.
What to Expect: After setting up your log in a shady, moist area, you'll simply need to maintain consistent moisture levels. The first mushrooms typically appear in the fall, creating a delightful and rewarding harvest. Full instructions will be included, so even if you're new to mushroom cultivation, you'll have all the guidance you need.
