What´s special about Shiitake is the fact that Shiitake needs less air humidity in comparison with other cultivated mushrooms. For Shiitake the greenhouse can be replaced by a plastic bag. The ready matured Shiitake mycelium is taken out of the bag for spawn run phase and placed on a plate or similar at room temperature (20-25°C). To avoid drying up a larger bag is placed over the Shiitake mushroom culture, to generate enough air humidity for growing just spray the inside of the bag using a water sprayer.

The Japanese name "Shiitake" consists of the words "Take" (= mushroom) and "Shii" (= Pasania-tree) and means "mushroom that grows on a tree". The Shiitake has originally been domiciled in Japan, Korea and China and his special characteristics are known by the people for more than 2000 years.
