Growing mushrooms on logs is a low-maintenance method of cultivation that can be very rewarding.

Once the spawn has fully colonised the log, it will produce mushrooms when mother nature allows, generally in the spring and autumn.

Depending on your log size, it can take anywhere between 12 & 24 months for the spawn to fully colonise the log. The log will produce mushrooms when the conditions are right, typically in the autumn and spring, until all its nutrients are depleted. Every 2.5cm in diameter typically corresponds to a year's worth of mushroom growth.

Using our method, all 75 log spawn plugs will fit into a 1.5m x 250mm log or several smaller ones.

Beeswax is supplied with each pack to help seal the spawn into place.

All you will need is a drill, a 9-9.5mm drill bit and some freshly cut logs. See our detailed instructions page for the easy-to-follow process.
