Organic Shiitake (100 ct) Mushroom Plugs for Logs | Premium Quality Mushroom Plug Spawn | Handmade in Maine, USA | Grow Gourmet Mushrooms Outdoors on Logs | Lentinula edodes

Received our order in March 2024 and placed our spawn plugs (shiitake, Italian oyster, snow, oyster, and lions mane) into the logs the following month. The order came with an instruction booklet which explained the best time of year to “plant” and what type of trees work best for each mushroom. Unfortunately, we had misidentified the tree we harvested for our logs and it was the one tree not listed. I didn’t want to cut down another tree so we used the serviceberry and hoped for the best. It is now early November 2024 and our shiitakes are blooming and we’ve even seen a few oyster mushrooms too. No growth on the lions mane but that may be due to us using a serviceberry for our logs. Needless to say, I am very happy with this purchase and I will definitely be using North Spore again.

had to keep bags in fridge a couple month longer then expected.. still the dowels inoculated the logs well and looks like its about to start fruiting. Second time i have ordered these and will do so again. It easily pays for itself in fresh shitakes. Note if you have too many mushrooms slice thin and put in a dehydrator for like 12 hours to make them shelf stable in a jar for years. If you want to force the innoculated logs to fruit then soak them in water a couple days and they will assuming its not freezing out.

Followed the instructions and nothing sprouted. We might try again in the future.

Great mushroom plugs, I will buy again

Still producing a year later

Didn't have any luck getting these to grow. I got 1 mushroom and still waiting.... I purchased these some time ago.

They did not grow(

I got these and was amazed how easy it is. Well worth it

Good, reliable vendor.

I haven't harvested any yet but I'm really impressed with the price, packaging, delivery time, and extremely accurate instructions it came with.

Left them on the counter for weeks when I opened the package it said not to store in a cool place. Bit late. Those Instructions sould be on the outside. Waste of money

This is just what I ordered. It came with a guaranty and terrific instructions, as well as information on the other products the company makes. On top of that, the price is reasonable and it even arrived before I expected it to. While I have to wait a while to see how soon I get mushrooms the fact that they stand behind their work makes me feel good.
