Product Details

Our chestnut (Pholiota adiposa) fruiting blocks feature a popular strain widely cultivated in Japan. Mushrooms are velvety with small-to-medium, delightfully speckled caps resembling the color of their namesake nut. And when cooked, they have a woodsy aroma, a crunchy texture, and a rich, nutty, mildly-sweet flavor.

Chestnuts prefer cooler temperatures and are prone to drying out or stopping their growth if humidity is not maintained when the mushrooms are still in their early stages. They can also be trickier to get subsequent fruitings, so attempting a second flush requires extra work and attention. 

Upon receiving your kit:

Remove kit from the shipping box as soon as possible. Then, unfold the top of the bag, making room for air space. It's also important to check and confirm that the filter patch is not obstructed. This will help the organism breathe and continue to thrive!
