Lion’s Mane Grain Spawn – 1kg

About Lion’s Mane

Lion’s Mane is one of the most distinctive gourmet mushrooms you can grow, producing dense clusters of cascading white spines rather than the traditional cap-and-stem form. Our 1kg grain spawn is fully colonised and ready to use, with a choice of Organic Rye or Sorghum.

Prized for its firm, meaty texture and delicate flavour, Lion’s Mane is a rewarding species for home growers and small-scale producers looking to grow something a little different.
