Bear's Head (Hericium abietis) is a gourmet mushroom species recognised for its cascading white spines and coral-like appearance. Closely related to Lion's Mane, it forms large clusters of hanging teeth that become increasingly impressive as the mushroom matures.
In nature, Bear's Head is commonly found growing on dead and decaying conifer wood. Cultivators value the species for its attractive fruiting bodies, vigorous mycelial growth, and unique appearance.
Liquid culture is a nutrient-rich solution made from distilled water and carefully selected carbohydrates such as light malt extract, dextrose, or honey. These nutrients provide an ideal environment for mycelial growth and expansion.
The mycelium suspended within the liquid culture acts as a living inoculant that can be used to inoculate a grow kit, grain spawn, or suitable substrate. Liquid culture is often preferred because it allows rapid colonisation, efficient expansion, and reliable mycelial growth.
For optimal viability and vigorous growth, use your Bear's Head liquid culture as soon as possible after receipt.
If immediate inoculation is not possible:
Store the sealed syringe in a refrigerator at 2–4°C
Do not freeze
Best used within 3 months of receipt
