Premium Nameko Mushroom Mycelium for Consistent Gourmet Growth - Pholiota microspora/nameko

Lab produced, Belgian made, top quality, fresh mycelium spawn on sterilized rye grain berries in special sealed mushroom bags.

Once the bag is opened, the spawn must be used and applied to the substrate immediately. You will receive ready colonized rye grain spawn for inoculation on various fruiting substrates of your choice. Your spawn is prepared fresh after ordering to maximize quality. For this reason it may take between 10 to 14 days to produce.

Ideally, the product should be used immediately after delivery, but it can be stored in the fridge at 4° Celsius for a maximum of two months and will still be viable - Respect the expiry date on the package.

 

EDIBILITY

 

The Nameko mushroom (Pholiota microspora) is very edible and very popular in Japan and China, known for its nutty flavor and slippery texture, but it must be cooked thoroughly as it is not safe when raw. It adds a natural thickening glaze to dishes like miso soup.

HOW MUCH SPAWN TO BUY

The weight of your mushroom spawn ordered determines its intended use, so:

300g - Used to inoculate a sterilized/pasteurized block of 1.5 Kg
500g - For larger sterilized/pasteurized substrate inoculations of up to 2.5 Kg.

BEST GROWING CONDITIONS FOR NAMEKO

 

Substrate: Hardwood sawdust

Colonization Temperature: 24-29C, 75-85F

Fruiting Temperatures: 10-18C, 50-65F


GROWING AND SUBSTRATE

For maximum results it is best that this mushroom is grown indoors within a hydroponics grow room/tent, but a clean area or dark corner where there is a decent amount of humidity, air exchange and constant temperatures could also be used.

A humidifier would help to maintain humidity. Do not put in direct sunlight and watch out for gnats.

Nameko mushroom growing conditions are best when substrate moisture, clean handling, and stable temperatures are maintained throughout colonization and fruiting.
