Lion's mane mushrooms have grown in popularity for good reasons. Not only are they very easy to grow, they have a taste and texture very similar to crab or lobster. So much so that they make a great shellfish free "crab" cake. Aside from its taste, there have been a growing number of studies on their benefits to your immune system and cognitive health. Though it can be less forgiving than the oyster mushroom grow kits, it is still a great choice for anyone interested in growing their own mushrooms and can yield well over a pound of mushrooms from your first harvest.

My grow kits come with everything you need to grow mushrooms on your countertop. They include a 5lb fruiting block that uses the same same substrate and mushroom cultures I use to grow my mushrooms. The kits are as simple as finding a surface in your house where you wont forget about it. Following the provided instructions the only things you have to do are cut an "x" in the fruiting block and use the provided misting bottle every day with tap water.
