Lentinula edodes. Our favorite commercial strain for indoor shiitake block production. This strain fruits best at colder temperatures and tends to produce mushrooms with large caps and smaller stems. Our culture is direct from Belgium and retains the highly desired characteristics of this strain. Yield averages are .75-1.5 lb first flush off of 5 lb supplemented sawdust blocks. 

Lentinula edodes. A variation on commercial indoor shiitake genetics. We've had similar results from this strain as from our '207' strain listed above. We like having multiple varieties of the same species to ensure genetic diversity and reduce the odds of crop failure.

Lentinula edodes. Fast spawn run, heavy first flushes, and quick log recovery after fruiting.

Lentinula edodes. Warm weather strain that responds well to force fruiting. Grows large, plump mushrooms. 

Lentinula edodes. A highly productive, cool season fruiter that yields heavier in the spring.  

Lentinula edodes. Reilable strain, even if the growing conditions and substrate are not perfect. Can tolerate a wider range of temperatures than most shiitake. Produces medium sized caps.
