Reishi Mushroom (Ling Zhi) — Growing Kit

In the Shennong Bencao Jing, Ling Zhi (Ganoderma lucidum) holds the supreme position — it is the very first of the 365 superior herbs listed. The text states: 'Protracted taking may make the body light, prevent senility, and prolong life.' Revered by Taoists as a substance that cultivates Qi, Shen, and Jing, Reishi was considered the herb of spiritual cultivation above all others. Our Reishi growing kit contains a fully colonized hardwood substrate block ready to fruit. Within 2-3 weeks you'll see the distinctive antler-shaped primordia emerge, maturing into the iconic kidney-shaped fruiting bodies. Harvest and dry for teas, tinctures, or decoctions. For educational purposes only. Consult a qualified healthcare provider before use as medicine.
