La « poule des bois » (Laetiporus sulphureus) produit de grands sporophores orange vif, multicouches, dont la texture rappelle celle du poulet. Une fois cuits, ces champignons sont juteux, succulents et charnus, avec un léger arôme citronné.

La poule des bois peut être difficile à cultiver et est donc recommandée aux cultivateurs enthousiastes qui ont déjà réussi avec d'autres espèces plus avancées ou qui cherchent à expérimenter et à essayer de nouvelles méthodes. Comme la poule des bois n'est pas une forte concurrente, elle nécessite une stratégie de culture différente. L'inoculation fonctionne mieux lorsque les billes sont stérilisées à la vapeur, incubées et colonisées dans des sacs à filtre, puis retirées des sacs et partiellement enterrées dans un endroit ombragé.

Utilisation recommandée :

  • Le blanc sur sciure de poule des bois est recommandé uniquement pour les projets sur billes de bois.
  • Un sac de blanc sur sciure inoculera de manière fiable 20 billes.

À la réception de votre blanc :

Retirez-le de la boîte d'expédition dès que possible. Ensuite, dépliez le haut du sac, en laissant de l'espace pour l'air. Il est également important de vérifier et de confirmer que le filtre n'est pas obstrué. Cela aidera l'organisme à respirer et à continuer de se développer!

Tools you'll need

To grow on logs using sawdust spawn, you will need a Log Inoculation Tool, Log Sealing Wax, and Wax Daubers. 

For larger log projects you may also want to purchase an Angle Grinder Adapter and specialized 12mm drill bit.

Inoculation

Chicken of the woods does best in oak logs. However, it should be noted that chicken of the woods is prone to being out-competed by other fungi. For this reason, we recommend the following:

To limit competition and increase the chances of success, we strongly recommend sterilizing 8" by 8" segments of oak log in a pressure cooker or steam sterilizer before inoculation. Incubate your sterilized log segments for a few months in XL sealed filter patch bags until they are completely colonized. After colonization period, logs should be removed from bags and partially buried under 2 inches of top soil. The mushrooms will fruit from logs and emerge out of the soil.

(You can sterilize your log segments in a 22 qt or larger pressure cooker such as an All-American.)

Storing

If you don't plan to use your Chicken of the Woods sawdust spawn immediately, you can refrigerate your spawn for up to 6 months.

Cooking

Be sure to harvest chicken of the woods mushrooms when young to avoid a brittle texture. When cooked, they have a meaty, slightly lemony, flavor with a texture similar to chicken. The tougher outer pieces are best dried and used in soups or risottos or ground down to make rubs. The more tender, center pieces are delicious when sauteed with garlic, onions, salt, and olive oil. (A splash of white wine is nice, too!)

Ingredients

All our spawn is made using organic cultures from our own culture bank. Our sawdust spawn is handmade from a blend of locally sourced, all-natural, organic, and non-GMO woods and supplements from farms and forests in New England and North America. 

Cautions & considerations

If you’re going to consume home-grown mushrooms, make sure to cook your fresh mushrooms thoroughly with heat. If it is your first time eating this species, it is best to start with a small amount to check for allergies, even if cooked.

Sawdust Spawn Frequently Asked Questions

Sawdust spawn is sterilized sawdust colonized with mushroom mycelium. It’s used to inoculate a growing substrate such as logs, wood chips, or outdoor garden beds to start mushroom growth.

It serves as the "seed" for your mushroom crop — transferring live, growing mycelium into your chosen growing medium.

Sawdust spawn is best for outdoor projects like logs, stumps, or garden beds and is slower to contaminate.
Grain spawn is ideal for indoor grows or bulk substrate inoculation because it colonizes faster but is more contamination-sensitive.

Sawdust spawn is mixed or packed into a substrate (like logs or wood chips) to inoculate it. Common methods include:

  • Drilling and filling holes in logs
  • Layering in outdoor wood chip or straw beds
  • Mixing with sterilized sawdust or wood pellets for bag cultivation

Most sawdust spawn performs best on hardwoods like oak, maple, or beech. Some species (like Wine Cap or certain Oysters) can tolerate small amounts of softwood in the mix.
