Lion’s Mane Mushroom Grain Spawn

Lion's Mane, also known as Monkey's Head or its Latin name, Hericium erinaceus, is best known for its unique appearance—resembling a mane of white, flowing tendrils, or mane of a lion—this fungi has not only captured the attention of foodies but also that of researchers and health enthusiasts.

There has been growing excitement around Lion's Mane for its cognitive and medicinal benefits in the last few years. As more and more research emerges, demand for this mushroom in both supplement and fresh forms has soared, and it shows no signs of slowing down.

When it comes to versatility, Lion's Mane has a lot to offer. You can cook it, dry it, extract its components, or even turn it into tea. While some consider it to be slightly more challenging to cultivate than oyster mushrooms, it's a reliable choice for both beginner and experienced growers, offering steady, year-round indoor production. When cultivated under optimal conditions, these mushrooms provide robust first, second, and even third harvests—making them a superb option for commercial cultivation.

Originating from the hardwood forests of North America, Europe, and Asia, Lion's Mane thrives on a substrate mix of 80% hardwood, 10% cereals, and 10% bran. If you're considering indoor cultivation, it pairs well with a SacO2 T-Filter growing bag.
