Flammulina velutipes

Wild Enoki produces the species’ natural form with shorter stems and brown caps rather than the long, pale appearance associated with tightly controlled commercial production. It is a specialty culture best suited to a controlled indoor setup.

Made to order: Usually 2–3 weeks to prepare. Request Wild Enoki and confirm timing →

Growing conditions

  • Colonization: 70–75°F

  • Reported fruiting: 40–85°F (not TT-verified)

  • Substrate: Master’s Mix or supplemented hardwood

TESTING — Wild strain found growing around 85°F. The reported 40–85°F fruiting range has not been verified by Texas Toadstools. The 85°F figure describes the original wild-growing observation, not Dewayne’s own cultivation result. Warm-weather performance remains under evaluation; do not treat 85°F as a recommended fruiting target.

Harvest & use

Mild and slightly nutty. Well suited to soups, noodle dishes, and stir-fries.

Syringe details

10 mL liquid culture syringe

Included: One culture syringe, one sterile 18G needle, and one alcohol wipe. Grain, substrate, and growing equipment are not included.

Before you begin

Refrigerate on arrival unless your label gives different instructions. Do not freeze.

This is a starter culture, not a ready-to-fruit block. Follow the culture-to-harvest guide for grain and substrate preparation.
