When will they start growing?
After cutting the X, you can usually expect growth within 3–15 days.
Once the first pins appear, your Lion's Mane will continue developing and should be ready to harvest within approximately 14–21 days.
Where should I keep my log?
Keep your mushroom log in a clean, bright indoor space with indirect light and fresh airflow.
Avoid direct sunlight and strong drafts. Ideal fruiting temperatures are between 16–22°C.
How often should I mist?
Lion's Mane loves moisture. Gently mist the growing area at least three times per day.
If your environment is particularly dry, place a humidifier nearby to help maintain a comfortable, humid environment.
Will they grow again?
Yes! With the right care and suitable growing conditions, your log can produce approximately 2–3 harvests.
After harvesting, allow the log to rest. New growth may begin appearing again within approximately 7–20 days.
