You likely could, but I think it would be dependent on what turkey tail strain you use. And Turkey tail is so prolific on logs that we tend to use that method!
What we have noticed is that the block will fruit for more than one year, but generally once the maitake eats through the block substrate it will stop fruiting.
Thank you very much. Im just starting a outdoor mushroom seasonal farm among others crops in Greece and your Chanel has been very helpful thank u again if you ever come in Greece just say hi
Not sure about this. Looks good but. I was told not to introduce mitake to my oak trees (anywhere near them) since it is a parasite and will kill them.
Lol that spider. I love that you showed that it actually grew. I always see videos where they just plant and say, "there you go".
Beautiful and simple thanks for sharing ❤❤❤❤
Great video, thanks for posting! I'd say you more than quadrupled what I expected to see. I'm impressed with this method. Good idea!
Another awesome video! Thank you!
Thanks for the video! I'm just wondering if it will work for turkey tail too. 🤔

@@FieldandForestProducts Thanks. I've found a turkey tail straw spawn for growing in bed outdoors. Fingers crossed!
i got a heart attack at the end from that spider
You and me both!
Scared the hell out of me with that spider lol
😂
What artist is playing that Django Reinhardt-style guitar?
Hello, are these blocks had fruited indoor once already? Thank you!
This was the first fruiting. Typically Hen of the Woods only fruits once from a block.
It would be nice to coment about timing, how long before fall should be done...
Great point. We would plant them as soon as you're sure the last frost has hit in the spring, and then no later than mid-july.
If you keep top dressing this with oak wood chips or logs, could this be perpetual?

The blocks are spawn blocks or ready to fruit blocks?
Ready-to-fruit blocks.

Is there still risk for contamination?
Contamination to surrounding trees?
at 1:02, why flip the block upside down?
So this is buried once then the following fall you get 1 harvest off blocks then it's finished. Is this correct?
After one year the blocks will keep fruiting for about 7.
How much fruit per season? Ie you showed cutting a fruit from a buried log. Will it produce again during the same fruiting year?
Do you sell Maitake bricks ready to drop in ground?
I mean blocks
@@embry729 We do, but right now they are a special order item that would need to be placed over the phone to ensure best timing of plant.
WHY DID THE SPIDER MAKE ME JUMP

they tend to only go after weakening tree but its a good idea to not have them near your oaks.
You should mention this is a "one & done" kinda thing..... don't expect more than one fruiting.
