14-15" Shiitake Mushroom Log with Soaking Tray

Here's another shiitake mushroom kit but this one comes with a soaking tray. The tray seems quite helpful and keeps the log self-contained. Harvest mushrooms from this log every 2 months for years if you water it every two weeks and give it a little light. These kits make great gifts although you must open it right away so it can get air and light. Wrap it at the last minute and make sure the recipient understands that it is a living organism and can't be neglected for too long. Available from Amazon for $30.50.
