cubensis mushroom spores

Hericium erinaceus or Lions Mane grows primarily on hardwoods, though conifers can also be used with some success. Either logs or stumps can be inoculated. Mycelium is whitish in color. The spawn plugs should be inserted into the open face of cut wood. This eminently edible mushroom species is ideal for inoculation into stumps or partially buried logs. Hericium erinaceus is widely distributed on hardwoods, particularly oaks, and can be found naturally across much of North America. These are beautiful mushrooms, with cascading white icicle-like spines, and are some of the best of the edible fungi.

Also known as Yamabushitake, has long been used for its anti-tumor and immune-stimulating properties. It has recently been the focus of studies as a stimulant for the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF).
