Organic Shaggy mane- Coprinus comatus - Grain spawn
Synonyms: Lawyer's Wig, Shaggy Ink Cap, Maotou guisan
The Shaggy mane (Coprinus comatus) contains a balanced composition of vitamins and minerals. It therefore makes an important contribution to a balanced daily diet. The high lectin content and the L-ergothioneine it contains are of therapeutic interest. The polysaccharide fucogalactan has recently been identified as a potential active structure in Coprinus comatus.
The cap is usually 4 - 10, maximum 15 cm high and 3 - 4, maximum 5 cm thick on a long, narrow stem.
It grows outdoors in late summer and autumn across all climatic zones of the world, often on roadsides and meadows.
As an edible mushroom, the crested toadstool is only edible when young, with a closed white cap.

Vitaminen und Mineralstoffen. Er stellt damit einen wichtigen Beitrag
zur täglichen ausgewogenen Ernährung dar. Von therapeutischem Interesse
sind der hohe Gehalt an Lektinen sowie das enthaltene L-Ergothionein.
Als potentielle Wirkstruktur konnte vor kurzem in Coprinus comatus das
Polysaccharid Fucogalactan identifiziert werden.
Der Hut ist meist 4 - 10, maximal 15 cm hoch und 3 - 4, höchstens 5 cm dick auf einem langen schmalen Stil.
Im Freien wächst er im Spätsommer und Herbst quer durch alle Klimazonen der Welt, oft an Wegrändern und an Wiesen.
Als Speisepilz ist der Schopftintling nur jung, mit geschlossenem weißen Hut verwendbar.
