Made in Maine from the highest quality cultures by expert Mycologists. - TOOLS YOU WILL NEED: To grow on logs using plug spawn, you will need a drill bit, log sealing wax, and wax daubers. - FOR BEST RESULTS: Chicken of the woods does best grown on oak logs. After colonization period in filter patch bags above ground, logs should be partially buried under 2 inches of top soil. The mushrooms will fruit from logs and emerge out of the soil. - RECOMMENDED METHOD: Because chicken of the woods is not a strong competitor, cultivation works best when logs are first steam sterilized, then incubated and colonized in filter patch bags, and finally removed from bags and partially buried in a shaded spot. - SKILL LEVEL: Chicken of the Woods can be difficult to cultivate and is therefore recommended for intermediate and advanced growers who have had some success with other more advanced species or are looking to experiment and try new methods. - STORING PLUG SPAWN: If you don't plan to use immediately, you can refrigerate your spawn for up to 6 months. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Product Dimensions | 17.78 x 5.08 x 12.7 cm; 159 g | | Sunlight exposure | Partial Shade | | Manufacturer | North Spore | | ASIN | B096CQ7G4K | ## Product Details - **Plant or animal product type:** mushroom - **Indoor/outdoor use:** Outdoor - **Brand:** North Spore - **Material features:** Organic - **Colour:** Chicken of The Woods ## Images ![Chicken of The Woods Mushroom Plugs for Logs (100 Count) | Premium Quality Mushroom Plug Spawn | Handmade in Maine, USA | Grow Gourmet Mushrooms Outdoors on Logs | Laetiporus sulphureus - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81VdzzdT-aL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What type of wood is best to grown them in and should I prop the log up somehow? What’s an ideal configuration?** A: Chicken of the woods is a hard mushroom to grow and definitely needs some special considerations. One way to do it is the pasteurization/sterilization method outlined on the product page and plug pamphlet on our website: https://northspore.com/collections/plug-spawn/products/chicken-of-the-woods-plug-spawn Another way to increase success is likely just a super high spawn rate. So, I'd probably put all these plugs into one log. You would colonize a log like this just as you would a shiitake log, but for fruiting you would want to at least partially bury the log (a trench is good). https://northspore.com/pages/grow-mushrooms-on-logs-videos Please check out those links and let me know if you still have questions!
