Lion's Mane Mushroom Liquid Culture

Live, lab-tested Lion’s Mane liquid culture in a ready-to-inject 10ml syringe. Cascading white spines with a sweet, crab-like flavor — and one of the most sought-after gourmet species in cultivation.

Lion's Mane is the mushroom that converts people. It grows as a shaggy white globe of soft, hanging spines, and when cooked in butter it takes on a sweet, delicate flavor most people place somewhere between crab and lobster. It is also one of the most studied gourmet species in the world, long associated with cognitive and nerve support.

It is a forgiving species to cultivate. Lion's Mane fruits well over a broad temperature band, tolerates modest humidity swings better than most gourmets, and does not demand the precision that species like Shiitake do. That combination of unusual flavor and easy temperament makes it an excellent second grow for anyone who has already fruited an oyster.

This culture performs best on supplemented hardwood sawdust or masters mix, and it will happily run through sterilized grain for expansion.
