Spring shiitake mushrooms

<< < (2/2)

Pat B:
We've done 2 sets in the last 15 years but only about 20 logs each time.  The initial set up is quite tedious but the reward is great!

Pat B:
Hey Grunt. Look what I got yesterday evening. This is the third flush this year. Not many but better than nothing!  ;D

Hillbilly:
I've got to set me up some shroom logs. I cut some white oak logs a couple years ago, but never got around to ordering the spawn.

Pat B:
Steve, order and receive your spore before cutting the logs and do this early in the spring before the trees leaf out. If any other fungi has infected the log the Shiitake fungi will not enter the log. Our first batch of logs produced mushrooms for 8 years with a flush in the spring and one in the fall.
