Review: So much fun!! - 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!!
Review: It really worked!!! - 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!!!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use fir or apple tree wood?**
A: Oak is best/optimal for shiitake. However any other hardwood should do, except pine. Stay away from softer woods (i.e. fruit trees).

**Q: Are these ok to purchase and have shipped in the winter?  In other words, will they freeze during shipping?**
A: We make sure all the dowels have on their winter coats! (just kidding) The spawn is fine in transit, and you can store in the fridge until you are ready to use! Hope that helps!

**Q: can then used in jars with substrate**
A: Yes you can. So long as your process is safe from any contamination. I tried making plug spawn my self with this plug using birch plugs bought from home depot and it was a big success.

**Q: I did not get inoculation instructions. Where can I find some?**
A: Honestly, if you look on You Tube you can find step by step videos on how to inoculate. 
If you haven’t gotten your logs yet, cut down your oak tree and let sit for about a month and then they will be ready to put in your plugs...  it’s important to let your tree/logs sit for a month after cutting because there is a deterrent that live trees have naturally to keep fungus’s from growing on it. That needs to die off before plugging.  Then you want to inoculate with your fungus before Nature does it with other fungus’s.  
You will need a 5/16th drill bit with a spacer, a rubber mallet and bees wax works best but you can use cheese wax too to cover all plugs and ends. You want to seal the log. Then soak overnight about every month for about 9 months to a year. You should be able to get a harvest off each log every 4-6 weeks or if it rains:) Good luck! There is a lot of info out there to help with questions.

### ⭐ They came to me moldy!!!
*by S***S on October 15, 2024*

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.
