Description
Bear’s Head, also known as pom-pom mushroom, is a unique mushroom that is an aggressive grower in the grow room. It has a light delicate taste that works wonderfully in many dishes. It’s has a meat-like flavor when battered and fried.
Bear’s Head and Comb Tooth are close cousins to Lions Mane and have many similarities. While there aren’t any poisonous look-alikes for the Hericiums, they are often hard to tell apart and confused for each other. As such, while Comb Tooth and Bears Head haven’t been studied as much as Lions Mane, it’s reasonable to think they may share the beneficial properties as well.

Simply put, liquid cultures are mycelium grown in a liquid environment as opposed to growing on a solid substrate such as agar. These liquid cultures are syringes filled with a mix of this growing mycelium and nutritious liquid and can be used to inoculate anything from agar plates, grains, sterilized substrates, or even more liquid culture of your own. Each syringe comes with 10 cc’s of liquid culture, which in our experience is enough to inoculate 5 X 5 lbs bags of sterilized grain. Store in the fridge until you’re ready to use it.
