Root & Earth

Happy Hericiums. Like all of my pictures on here, these are a cultigen that I have developed from from a wild specimen that I have developed through cloning, fruiting, multi spore isolations etc.

So much work has gone into this to get to this point and I am constantly excited and inspired for more

Yes. The struggle is definitely real.

The blocks aren’t wack btw, that should have said “each”. 😂🥴😂

And, thank you so much!

These are on MM, but this isolation has produced equally on Hickory Pellets with wheat bran. The original specimen was growing on hickory.

The Lion’s Mane from my last couple posts have produced better than I could have ever expected with wack block producing 3 or more lbs of perfect dense fruits.

I’ll have them available today at Hub City Farmers Market in Spartanburg SC while supplies last.

My wife and I have completely switched over. I do still check the main stories from legacy sources but mainly just to see the biases.

We haven’t heard the sound of the incoming presidents voice since before the election and it is our goal to never hear it again.

Thank you for speaking truths!

Yes my district has changed as well. Always to favor Republican control. It’s absolutely disgusting. At least we were able to deny second terms to McCrory, and Cawthorn.

As a long time citizen (40 years) of NC it has been such a disgusting display by the GOP ever since they were allowed to employ extreme gerrymandering to hold our state hostage.

I would venture to say that our state is high in the running for the most blatant Republican corruption in the country.

Really happy with the way this particular Hericium erinaceus isolation is performing with the top fruiting method. I collected the wild specimen last fall and have been working with it and a few other distinct genetics ever since.

Thanks so much!

I absolutely will..

Thanks! With these wild genetics I’m still playing around to see what they prefer.

The ones I’ve opened before they pin seem to definitely be producing better defined fruits although they do take a little longer.

Some of my wild WNC genetic lines of Hericeum fruiting in the tent this morning.

Developing unique phenotypes to bring our customers a unique culinary experience is a joy of ours.

The Odd Numbers “About Time”

The Cure is excellent.

A beautiful flush of Apioperdon pyriforme fruiting among debris left in the wake of #helene #WNC

A beautiful Laetiporus that I found shortly before Helene wreaked havoc on WNC.

This is a lovely Hericeum fruited from wild genetics I’ve been working for a while now. Very happy with this cultigen.
