Mushroom Logs
Sawdust substrates that have been colonised by Gourmet and Medicinal Mushroom mycelium. These substrates are sterilised and inoculated in the laboratory, then the mushroom mycelium is allowed to completley colonise the substrate before being dispatched. At this time the mycelium holds the sawdust particles together, making it resemble a "log". Dimensions: 15cm x 40cm 18 logs per carton. Delivery via refridgerated container. Available mushroom log varieties: Pleurotus ostreatus  - Oyster Lentinula edodes     -  Shiitake Grifola frondosa       -  Maitake Ganoderma lucidum  -  Reishi Other varieties can be made to order!	R 20 per Log R 360 per carton Prices are subject to volume.
