Bins on bins of shiitakes! Grow your own with our help: Growing Shiitake Mushrooms At Home With Our Help Shiitakes are a delicious edible that many people love. You can grow your own at home with the help of a shiitake mushroom log. Instructions below: How to build your own shiitake mushroom log Log cultivation is best done on hardwood logs like oak sugar maple and beech. Other logs will work but will not produce as high of yields. It is best to select logs with a diameter between 3 and 8 for this method of cultivation. One-inch deep holes are drilled every 6 and shiitake plug spawn is tapped into the holes with a hammer. Then the log is rotated 2 and holes are again drilled every 6. It is best to offset the holes so in the end the drilling makes a diamond pattern. Every hole is filled with shiitake plug spawn and then waxed over. The wax ensures the mycelium will not dry out and that no other fungi will get into the log. You can still grow shiitake mushrooms at home even if you do not want to bother with a shiitake mushroom log Dont have any logs to make a shiitake mushroom log with?
