Grow hardwood-loving mushrooms!
Our Wood Lovr is a wood chip-based sterile mushroom substrate formulated by mycologists for hardwood-loving species. The combination of micro-to-macro particle sizes of premium North American hardwood chips and sawdust plus nitrogen supplementation helps to speed up growth and maximize yield. Note: Substrate is hydrated to field capacity.
Use Wood Lovr in monotubs, or experiment with trays, buckets, and containers in a humidity-controlled grow room or Martha set up.
Spawn to bulk ratio:
We recommended mixing 1 colonized grain spawn bag with 2-3 Wood Lovr bags. (Higher inoculation rates may improve your success.)
-
- We recommend clean hands, latex or nitrile gloves, and sterile technique when using Wood Lovr to reduce the introduction of contaminants.
- Be sure to mix colonized grain spawn thoroughly into your substrate.
- It is best practice to wait a minimum of 1 week after arrival before using sterile substrates to ensure they were not compromised during transit. Rest assured that your purchase is 100% guaranteed. If your substrate was compromised, we will replace it.
-
Wood Lovr bags should be stored at room temperature out of direct sunlight. No refrigeration necessary. They can be stored for several months before use.
-
Our Wood Lovr is sterilized in a commercial-grade autoclave. Sterility is verified using biological indicators and temperature sensors.

Thanks for the great review, Stanley! We really appreciate your support.

Great growing medium
I took a while to put it in the back yard with the growing culture. Looking forward to yummy blue oyster mushrooms soon

Amazing Sub
From ordering to using y'all make it super easy and custom support is top notch. This product is very high grade. Never had a problem

Great for pioppinos
The first time Woodlvr arrived, the bag was torn and North Spore replaced it immediately. I'm glad they add a note to check the bag is intact. I inoculated sterile oat jars with North Spore pioppino liquid culture and once fully colonized, I mixed with Woodlvr in various containers - everything was wildly successful. I couldn't be happier--I even got 2 flushes even though other growers said it was unlikely for this species.

Excellent product, service and most importantly…results!
I caught the mushroom grow bug after foraging the most delicious oysters mushrooms I have ever had. While foraging is a delight that I am so fortunate to be able to do regularly in the mushroom rich environment I live in, I wanted to have a more reliable source of these delicious mushrooms. Thanks to North Spore and this perfect substrate, I am growing 4 varieties of oysters in my “lab” and, even more exciting, I have found my passion with the incredibly diverse and mesmerizing fungi kingdom! Thank you North Spore!
