The Reishi Sopron strain comes from our own wild collection in Sopron (western Hungary). This breeding strain is ideally adapted to the European climate and is ideal for outdoor cultivation. In contrast to other strains, Reishi Sopron produces good yields even in low humidity. When grown as a finished culture, it is also ideal for the production of antler-like fruiting bodies, the so-called antler form. The filter bag is kept closed during the entire cycle. This virtually eliminates yield loss due to contamination, but the harvest is slightly lower than when grown in an open bag.
This mushroom is called Ling Zhi in China and Reishi in Japan. The German name Glänzender Lackporling refers to the appearance of this typical tree mushroom. According to tradition, this fascinating mushroom has a history of around 4,000 years! In East Asia, it is traditionally a symbol of health, physical and mental recovery, long life, high sexual activity, wisdom and wealth.
Reishi is rich in micronutrients such as iron, magnesium, calcium, zinc, copper, manganese and germanium. The polysaccharides and triterpenes contained in reishi, such as ganodermic, ganolucid and lucidemic acids, are particularly valuable.
Ganoderma lucidum is a saprobiont (secondary decomposer) that mainly colonises deciduous woods such as oak, beech, alder and birch. It prefers warm oak or egg forests.
