Cultivate mushrooms that thrive on hardwood!
Our Tree Hugger substrate presents a wood chip-based, sterile mushroom substrate meticulously crafted by mycologists specifically for hardwood-loving species. This formulation incorporates a blend of premium North American hardwood chips and sawdust across varying particle sizes, combined with nitrogen supplementation to accelerate growth and optimize yield. Please note that the substrate is hydrated to field capacity.
Employ Tree Hugger Substrate in monotubs or get creative with trays, buckets, and containers within a controlled humidity grow room or a Martha setup.
Recommended spawn-to-bulk ratio:
For optimal results, we suggest combining 1 colonized grain spawn bag with 2-3 bags of Tree Hugger Substrate. (Increased inoculation rates may enhance your chances of success.)

We advise employing proper hygiene practices such as washing your hands, using latex or nitrile gloves, and maintaining a sterile technique when utilizing mushroom substrate to minimize the risk of introducing contaminants. Ensure thorough mixing of colonized grain spawns into your substrate.
As a best practice, it is recommended to wait at least one week after receiving your order before using sterile substrates. This precautionary measure helps ensure that the substrates have not been compromised during transit. Rest assured that your purchase is backed by a 100% guarantee. If your substrate is found to be compromised, we will promptly replace it.
