When cooked, these mushrooms are juicy, succulent, and meaty with a mild, lemony aroma.Chicken of the woods can be difficult to cultivate, and is therefore recommended for enthusiast growers who have had some success with other more advanced species or are looking to experiment and try new methods. Because chicken of the woods is not a strong competitor, it requires a different cultivation strategy. Inoculation works best when logs are steam sterilized, incubated and colonized in filter patch bags, then removed from bags and partially buried in a shaded spot.Each outdoor log kit contains:A drill bitLog sealing waxA wax applicator100 ct plug spawn or voucherInstruction guideNote: Dowel may be fluted or spiral. Aside from being kiln dried, our wooden dowels are not treated in any other way.
