Bring the wonders of the forest into your home with the Merry Mushroom Maidens Lion's Mane Grow Kit.

Our 6 lb. kit makes it incredibly simple to grow this striking, delicious mushroom right on your countertop.

Why Choose Our Grow Kits?

• Premium Quality Hardwood Substrate: We use a professional "Masters Mix" consisting of a 50/50 blend of oak sawdust and soy hulls. This nutrient-rich formula ensures your mushrooms have the best possible substrate to grow large, healthy clusters.
• Locally Sourced & Organic: Every kit is handcrafted at our facility in Missouri using 100% organic materials sourced locally from the hardwood forests of the Ozark Mountains.
• The 6 lb. Advantage: Our kits are significantly larger than many standard retail kits. A larger fruiting block means more nutrients and the potential for bigger, more robust harvests.
• Incredibly Easy Instructions: You don't need a green thumb to succeed with our plug-and-play grow kits! Follow the easy-to-use instructions printed on the box.
• Get 2-3 Flushes: After each harvest, rotate your substrate bag to an uncut section, close the box, re-cut the bag, and mist the substrate to trigger the next flush.
• 2-3 Months of Shelf Life: Merry Mushroom Maidens 6 lb. grow kits can be stored in the refrigerator for future use.

Health & Wellness Benefits

Lion's Mane is widely celebrated not just for its lobster-like flavor, but for its remarkable functional benefits:

• Brain & Memory Support: Lion's Mane contains compounds that may support nerve growth factor, helping maintain focus, memory, and overall brain health.
• Mental Clarity: Many people use Lion's Mane to help clear brain fog and support a steady, calm mood throughout the day.
• Digestive Health: A gentle, natural way to support the lining of the digestive tract and promote a healthy gut.
• Natural Anti-Inflammatory: Packed with antioxidants that help the body manage inflammation and stay resilient.

Harvest & Cooking

When your Lion's Mane feels firm and the icicles start to grow long, it's time to harvest! Because of its meaty texture, it is a fantastic seafood substitute — try it sliced into steaks and seared in butter, or shredded to make vegetarian crab cakes.

Ready to start your first harvest? Just place your kit in a spot with indirect light, follow our simple instructions printed on the box, and enjoy the freshest mushrooms you've ever tasted!

*Spray bottle not included to reduce waste. You can easily find a spray bottle online or at any local general store. The mushroom block and box are 100% compostable — though the bag is not, we aim to be as eco-friendly as possible.
