Special Fruiting Mix

This popular new mix is ideal for many varieties of mushrooms that require a slower growth rate.

Special Fruiting Mix Pellets are designed to provide a great nutritional makeup for varieties with a longer colonization and overall growth cycle. Comprising 80% Oak and 20% Organic Wheat Bran, these pellets are blended and compressed into an easy-to-use form. This mixture provides an optimal growing medium for Shiitake, Maitaka, Reishi, and more. Pelletized simplifies labor and measurements typically involved in mixing sawdust and wheat bran or wheat midds.

When crafting your ideal substrate mix for many slow fruiting species, the two essential ingredients are 100% Red Oak Sawdust and Wheat Bran. These pellets offer a convenient alternative, being easier to handle, transport, mix, and measure than loose b. They also break down rapidly when water is added.
