Maitake is a polypore mushroom, growing in clusters at the base of trees, especially oak. It is also perennial and will often grow in the same place for a number of years. It forms a sclerotium, which is an underground mass of mycelium from which the fruiting bodies emerge. The fruiting body can grow up to 100 centimeters consisting of a cluster of grayish-brown caps. The caps are 2-7 centimeters each with wavy margins. As with most polypores, it should be consumed young as it becomes very tough with age.

OutGrow® is proud to present a full line of edible and medicinal mushroom cultures. Economically priced so that everyone can enjoy the wonderful hobby and benefits of mushroom cultivation. Our cultures are made by experts and are 100% clean and viable.

The liquid culture syringes are between 10 and 12cc and are ready to inject to your substrate of choice such as sterilized rye berries.
