100 Shiitake 100 Mushroom Plug Spawn Edible Mycelium Plugs

Bought these as a Christmas gift for a couple family members. Product was great. It came with clear directions on what to do. The whole family had a great time plugging up the logs and finding a nice shady spot for them. It was so much fun we would love to do them again for our house but I don’t think we get enough shade. What a great product this was, a perfect gift. Can’t wait for the mushrooms!!

These came perfectly, I inoculated several logs without any fuss. I can see some growth happening, but I do think that I let a couple get too dry. My fault. I would definitely recommend. Also, just for fun because I had a few left over, I put them into some tree stump, and I water them every so often; I can see the mycelium spreading at the inoculation points! Fun times for me!

They came with quite a bit of spores on them, they are nice a strong wooded plugs. I did need to use a bit of a larger sized drill bit than the one that was provided with the kit because the plugs were bigger than the hole it made, I also used a rubber mallet to tap them into the hold and bees wax to seal the hole.

I’ve ordered these in the past with no issue once but the last shipment came like this. They are not returnable. Even when the product arrives damaged? They are covered with green soupy mold! Nasty. The spores are most likely dead. I would love a replacement but I’m scared it will look like this. I will adjust my review if I get a good replacement. Since this is sent by small business I’m not sure how this happened. Mold is a natural enemy of mushroom growing.

The product arrived with mycelium growing all over it. I put it in the refrigerator and forgot about it for about two months. I found some freshly cut oak trees and cut some 4 foot long by about 5 inch logs weighted two weeks to a month. Drilled my holes, put the plugs in poured the wax over it and forgot to water them to keep them moist. I moved the logs by my faucet almost a year later. Started watering them and mushroom s are popping out. I did everything wrong and I’m now getting mushrooms ! I’m sure if I had put them in the logs when I first got them, watered the logs at least once a week. I have no doubt I’d have a ton of shrooms. No doubt I will be ordering more from here again, they work!!!!

I've bought spore from 3 different brands. One brand of winecaps came up as an inedible non-native and when I contacted the company I was told that the winecap was out-competed and it was my fault. Wasted a lot of time and money. Another brand was the plug spore and has yet to show sign of fruit. This brand was the first to fruit. Purchased Mar 22, 2020 and planted shortly there after. I will recommend and keep purchasing from 2funguys.

The paper that came with the mushrooms says it’s going to be 6 to 12 months before the log is colonized. It says must use log no older than three months, but it will keep producing mushrooms for years. I want to understand why it Hass to be no more than three months at the beginning, but yet it will keep producing for years.

They arrived on time and looked the directions were easy to understand
