About the product
Breed
The Shiitake is brooded for at least 9 weeks on certified and controlled organic straw or beech wood substrate. During this time the brood is exposed to light for at least 12 hours a day. This gives the fungus enough time to penetrate its hyphae into even the smallest part of the substrate material and thus create the basis for maximum nutrient uptake. In the fruiting phase, the light phase is extended to 24 hours. This enables various precursors of important micronutrients such as vitamin D3- to be formed.
Harvest
The harvest takes place shortly before the mushrooms are sporulated. This ensures that the fruit body is maximally enriched with nutrients. Immediately after the harvest, the medicinal mushrooms (Shiitake) are sold or processed (dried, smoked, pulverized, extracted …). Thus we guarantee you always fresh medicinal mushrooms for consumption.
Indication
- Fresh medicinal mushrooms can only be picked up in the shop on Possinger Strasse 59, 1160 Vienna. We ask that you contact us in advance so that we can harvest fresh medicinal mushrooms for you.
Shiitake has a very pleasant taste, but, like most other medicinal mushrooms, contains a lot of chitin. Therefore, excessive consumption can eventually lead to flatulence.
