UnorthadoxDude Hello! This is a weird one, not a plant, but fungi! This diary is for the short fruiting of a Lions Mane Mushroom Grow Kit from The Lockdown Garden. It came already grown mycelium ready to fruit. I cut three holes in the bag and kept it moist. I am using the shower cubicle as a makeshifit fruiting chamber, there is a window in the room so the shrooms get daylight but not direct light. This is my first time fruiting any kind of fungi.

428g was the yield from the first flush. Fried lion's mane tastes like fried halloumi cheese. There may be a 2nd and possibly 3rd) flush - if so I will update diary again.

UnorthadoxDude Well to be fair this harvest crept up on me, the strucutre of my mushrooms wasn't the same as I was seeing online so it was not as easy to judge. Anyway, not a bad start, however with a yield like this it would not be commercially viable to grow these.

Oh how fun. I grew oyster and lions mane mushrooms a few years ago. Ate the oysters and made tincture from lions mane. 💚🍄💫

@Natrona, Awesome! I plan to eat them, but this is an experiment, if it goes well I may start fruiting more and selling them.
