Yes Ben try growing it , yourself Kits aren’t cheap Mushrooms are delicious and expensive. I bought a tray of Exotic mushrooms 150grams for $8 as a treat .I cooked in garlic and butter .Amazing the Lions mane Variety are beneficial for brain health etc 😊
Yes please, I would definitely want to watch a video of you growing these yourself,making the substrate,Etc. I take Lionsmane extract, and it helps clear up the brain-fog that I get from fibromyalgia and CFS. Awesome upload again Ben, Thank you!!
Lions Mane is amazing alongside Magnesium L-Threonate it saved me from dementia caused by a long term undiagnosed chronic illness I wished I had known about this before I could have helped my mother with Alzheimer thank you for highlighting this amazing mushroom 🙏
Definitely would like to see more along this line of "how to do something." Your time in showing things is most appreciated! (You and Charles are my favorites 😊 for learning these things!)
A very timely video for me! My husband has Long Covid which impairs mental faculties among other things and I also have a daughter and grandchildren with ADHD so I shall definitely be giving Lions Mane growing a go. Thanks, Ben!
I’d highly recommend trying out mushroom coffee/chocolate powder first to see if you like it and it works for your family. I tried a sample and thought it was super tasty, but my husband wasn’t a fan. I hope you find something for your squad - Long Covid and ADHD are no joke, man
Your very first video where I already knew everything. 😄 I've been growing mushrooms for 4 years but with not much luck with Lion's Mane thus far and so, would love to watch you cultivate a batch from 'scratch'. Thank you so much once again.
I had one growing in my backyard in South Dakota, USA. At the time I didn’t know what type it was, but enjoyed seeing its fuzziness grow. Nice to be able to give it a name now. I just might try to grow some for eating someday. Thanks for the information Ben.
I've been growing my own shoots after watching your other video, had a few nice oyster mushrooms but really like to try chicken in the wood. Shame the kits are a bit pricey but used straw and bought mycelium.
I saw a beautiful lion's mane in the woods ... so cool to see it growing wild. Definitely interested in growing lion's mane and other mushrooms at home. Thanks for the video ❤
Great video Ben, as always. We love mushrooms and this was tremendous, heard about the lion's mane how excellent qualities it has, never seen it where we are. Will look into it, even considering buying the concentrate. It all will be satisfying. I have to agree you also make growing these easy, we tried a box once, it was exciting - more a novelty, but the harvest was not too great, so we never ventured into another variety. Love watching your videos, nice to see what you get up to or into!! Hope you are not too chilly yet. Kind regards.
I enjoyed getting to see some cooking. We're in a food rut in this house. Would love to see what you do with all your lovely garden produce and also if/how you store into winter
Great video and great content, thank you for all the information, you are an encyclopedia source! Can't wait to show us how you will grow them, thank you again so much! ❤
I'm drinking my lion's mane/chicory 'coffee' as I watch 😊 I'd love to see how it's done without a kit...it would be fun to grow my own. Lion's mane has been very good to me❣️
Thanks Ben😊that would be fantastic to grow your own as kits are expensive.I paid $8=£4.09 for 150 grams of Exotic mushrooms.Thanks for showing us how easy it is to grow a kit. Cheer’s 🇦🇺
Good video I'm grind some mushroom packs I've been trying for 2 years to get filled mushrooms to grow in my lawn do you think you can do it I've sent a couple of people manage it
Wow, strange how this video has just came out. I've just harvested my first flush and had a lovely breakfast with Lions Mane as the mushroom. Most the mushroom had black spores as they were coming up to fully grown. The bag was touching the main body and I was misting. Wished this video came out sooner. 😖😂 Anyways onto my, hopefully more successful,next flush. Thanks Ben. I'm trying Shiitake next.
Thanks for filming this. I have been thinking of trying mushrooms but thought it would be difficult (based on a conversation with a grower at the farmer's market). You supplied the humidity information that will push me to try this fungus. Yes, please try your own substrate and share it with us.
Definitely give it a go, funnily enough i got some spores before i saw your video, going out today to buy some buckets, sawdust & hard wood pellets to make my own 💪🏻💚✌🏻
I would love to be able to learn how to grow these where I live. I have found them in the wild in different parts of WA State so I know what to look for.
It will be amzing to get some general info on how to grow mushrooms. You already had that video of how to do them in a bucket, and I am curiosu if you can do the same with this type of variaties
Wow i love this method but i have also seen your other videos on growing mushrooms and there is a difference are those the only ones 2 types you grow and i would love to see more videos
I have grown lion's mane, oyster mushrooms and button mushrooms. I would love to try more, such as shiitakes. Hope to do more mushroom-related videos in the future. :-)
Of course. The painting behind me was painted by a friend. I'm not sure what trees they are meant to me be, but it's a very serene painting which we love. :-)
Inspired for pressie for family of friends who havecquirky kids..they'll love watchibgbit grow and think they can eat despite their complex food allergies
I never heard of Lion's Mane mushrooms. A question: I have rotting oak posts in a shady part of the garden. The posts are actually 200 years old and were left over from a job, 20 years ago. They have started to break down. Would the mushrooms grow there, maybe put them there in Springtime? Do they tolerate frost?
The mushrooms need to grow on freshly cut wood. This is because older wood has a higher risk of other fungal species having already colonised it, so freshly cut wood is safer. They would tolerate frosts, yes.
Yes do some “from scratch” mushroom videos. The kits aren’t practical. I need to get back into trying again. I did a low key method, which does have some risk for contamination. You can do it without lab equipment though.
is it actually cost effective to grow them? The kits are £20+ for a similar volume you can buy in the supermarket. The only other posssibility is if the quaility was better.
The kits should give maybe three good-sized mushrooms, so the price competitiveness perhaps isn't there. But lion's mane mushrooms are very hard to find, so often the only way to enjoy them is to grow them yourself.
0:30 🤣🤣🤣 13:13 ... etc ... 1 Year Later , why waited ao long ??? P.S.: MAKE SPORE PRINT MAKE SPORE SYRING MAKE MYCELL. COLONY COLONIZE GRAIN/BROWN RICE SPAWN .... CLONE MUSHROOM FROM DEHYDRATED ONE !!! MAKE AIR-BOX " GROW VEGG STYLE "
You have piqued my interest Ben. It seems like a wonderful indoor growing project to do when it's cold and dark outside. Please show us how to start the lions mane off from scratch.
Just trying something different from this week's thumbnail. The lion's mane is scientifically proven to help concentration etc, so thought this could be a fun and quirky way to communicate that. :-)
Fact: Lions mane is not scientifically proven to boost anything or to help with any health conditions. Stop spreading pseudo-science for clicks. This is how I unsubscribe.
There are several proper, peer-reviewed scientific studies into lion's mane and it absolutely has been found to offer these benefits. I agree, there's way to much pseudo-science around, but in this instance I stand by the claims made in this video.
@GrowVeg no there are not. Absolutely no human studies on lion's mane prove anything you are claiming. Only studies on animals with a very small pool sample. I am a mycologist and mushroom farmer. Stop spreading misonformation for personal profit.
Yes please Ben, grow your own lions mane and record it all for our future viewing. Love watching your content.
Thanks.
Definitely try growing it! Would love to try doing it as a self sustainable way instead of buying a kit every time.
I would like that also, as I've done kit
Yes Ben try growing it , yourself Kits aren’t cheap Mushrooms are delicious and expensive. I bought a tray of Exotic mushrooms 150grams for $8 as a treat .I cooked in garlic and butter .Amazing the Lions mane Variety are beneficial for brain health etc 😊
Yes, definitely do one on substrate please.
I absolutely want to see that video. Great timing in this video also.
It was so fun to see you not only grow these mushrooms, but also prepare them! We definitely want to see you grow your own.
Yes please, I would definitely want to watch a video of you growing these yourself,making the substrate,Etc.
I take Lionsmane extract, and it helps clear up the brain-fog that I get from fibromyalgia and CFS.
Awesome upload again Ben, Thank you!!
Lions Mane is amazing alongside Magnesium L-Threonate it saved me from dementia caused by a long term undiagnosed chronic illness I wished I had known about this before I could have helped my mother with Alzheimer thank you for highlighting this amazing mushroom 🙏

Have started taking Lions Mane mushrooms powder and noticed beneficial effect from day one ❤😊
What brand and where did you purchase yours? Thanks
These are what I take, if that's any help: shop.realmushrooms.com/collections/lions-mane-mushroom-extracts
A very timely video for me! My husband has Long Covid which impairs mental faculties among other things and I also have a daughter and grandchildren with ADHD so I shall definitely be giving Lions Mane growing a go. Thanks, Ben!

I am here for any/all mushroom growing videos!
I add lionsmane powder to my coffee in the morning.
Thank you! 👍😉
Great episode! Thanks. I'd love to see how you'd do it yourself without a kit. Other mushrooms would also be interesting.
Your very first video where I already knew everything. 😄 I've been growing mushrooms for 4 years but with not much luck with Lion's Mane thus far and so, would love to watch you cultivate a batch from 'scratch'. Thank you so much once again.
I started taking lions mane tablets to help with my focus (AuDHD) and enjoying the results at work already. ❤️
More please! Thanks for keeping us growing in the `off season`. Love your stuff!
I had one growing in my backyard in South Dakota, USA. At the time I didn’t know what type it was, but enjoyed seeing its fuzziness grow. Nice to be able to give it a name now. I just might try to grow some for eating someday. Thanks for the information Ben.
Yes, try starting on your own. I would love to learn more. Thanks!
I've been growing my own shoots after watching your other video, had a few nice oyster mushrooms but really like to try chicken in the wood. Shame the kits are a bit pricey but used straw and bought mycelium.
I am so excited! I found some growing in an old hollowed out oak tree laying on the ground!
The timing of this video was perfect!
I saw a beautiful lion's mane in the woods ... so cool to see it growing wild. Definitely interested in growing lion's mane and other mushrooms at home. Thanks for the video ❤
That's amazing - what a treat to see it growing wild. :-)
yes please, so interested in growing it without a kit. thank you for all the great videos you make! ❤
Great video Ben, as always. We love mushrooms and this was tremendous, heard about the lion's mane how excellent qualities it has, never seen it where we are.

Love watching your videos, nice to see what you get up to or into!! Hope you are not too chilly yet. Kind regards.
So pleased you enjoy the videos. We had a cold snap a week or two ago but it's turned mild-ish again!
Fascinating, really worth giving it a go. Thanks as always Ben.
I enjoyed getting to see some cooking. We're in a food rut in this house. Would love to see what you do with all your lovely garden produce and also if/how you store into winter
I’d love to see that too 👍

I’d love to see you give it a go, Ben 👍
Thank you so much, mushrooms are such an interesting crop. I love your energy btw 🌻
The scallop of the woods. Great mushroom. Love the video great job explaining.

Oh my God I love mushrooms the morel mushrooms my favorite 💕
I'm drinking my lion's mane/chicory 'coffee' as I watch 😊 I'd love to see how it's done without a kit...it would be fun to grow my own. Lion's mane has been very good to me❣️

Would love to see you do that!
Yes! Please show us how! Love your Videos
One of your best videos Ben. Really demystifying the world of edible mushrooms 👍
Thanks so much. :-)
Yes please, would love to see more lions mane experiments!👍🏻
Very excited to see you covering mushrooms
Great video. I've always wanted to try and grow any shroom outside.
Fascinating! Thanks Ben 🦁
yes, please do own substrat and also please advice where to get substrat. Thanks
Thank you and I hope you show us more on how to maximize growing mushrooms.

Another one for growing your own. I've been out off doing it myself since I don't want to keep buying kits.
Thanks for the great content
I baught a kit and followed the instructions months back but not much happening untill 2 days ago, will now sqeese out air and add new bag thanks,
It will be amzing to get some general info on how to grow mushrooms. You already had that video of how to do them in a bucket, and I am curiosu if you can do the same with this type of variaties
Yes, please show me how to do all of it!
I would like to learn more about preparing the substrate for growing lions mane mushrooms
I’d love to learn how to grow it in a self sustainable way, please Ben. It would be great if you could grow your own and then give us advice.
Thanks Ben, yes I would be interested in another vid
Yes pls for the DIY substrate vid
Yes, please. A video on how to grow lions mane using your own substrate would be excellent. Can they be grown on spent coffee grinds do you think?
I wouldn't have thought so, as they naturally grow on hardwoods.
Yes please do that 👍👍. I would love to know and do myself 🙂
Yes please Ben! Great Video.
Maybe do a video on freeze drying some.
Hello Ben.. can you please make a video on blueberry masterclass
Check out our video on blueberries: ruclips.net/video/mBFufBKH7hc/видео.htmlsi=jkrYxUEf0MCiw8iD
@GrowVeg thank you I loveed it
Wow i love this method but i have also seen your other videos on growing mushrooms and there is a difference are those the only ones 2 types you grow and i would love to see more videos
I have grown lion's mane, oyster mushrooms and button mushrooms. I would love to try more, such as shiitakes. Hope to do more mushroom-related videos in the future. :-)
Ok then i am looking forward to it
I love growing lions mane 😍
Fascinating, I might try it, my brain could do with a boost!
Hope it’s okay to ask, what’s the picture of trees on the wall behind you, it’s lovely
Of course. The painting behind me was painted by a friend. I'm not sure what trees they are meant to me be, but it's a very serene painting which we love. :-)
Wow beautiful thanks for sharing
Nice and informative video! Just wanted to say if there is supposed to be a link or something similar at the end of video, it's sadly not there.
Thanks for letting me know. Here's a link to growing oyster mushrooms in a bucket: ruclips.net/video/Cp8Jc1GnDEo/видео.htmlsi=Ea0I89cStvRKWdPC
Good information
Inspired for pressie for family of friends who havecquirky kids..they'll love watchibgbit grow and think they can eat despite their complex food allergies
Ben, Thank you for showing us his mushroom, please try growing it the other way. So inspiring. God Bless You
Very interesting! Thank you!
Yes, plz show how to grow the lion's mane
Yes, please 😊
Yes please, brilliant😀😀👍👍

The mushrooms need to grow on freshly cut wood. This is because older wood has a higher risk of other fungal species having already colonised it, so freshly cut wood is safer. They would tolerate frosts, yes.
@@GrowVeg Thank you!
Yes please do try growing some of your own Lions Mane mushrooms.
Hi Ben where did you get your lions mane kit from would love to give it a try
My particular kit from from here: urban-farm-it.com/collections/lions-mane-mushroom-growing-kits
@@GrowVegoh lovely thank you ben
Yes do some “from scratch” mushroom videos. The kits aren’t practical. I need to get back into trying again. I did a low key method, which does have some risk for contamination. You can do it without lab equipment though.
Yes please!
Another Yes vote
here!
I 😍🤍🦁🍄!! 😄
More Mushrooms!
Depending on where you get it most lions Maine powder will contain virtually no lions Maine if any most are made up of bulking powders
Yes, definitely worth researching properly to make sure you're buying an effective product.
i'd like to see self grown lion mane
would love to see lions mane grown from scratch without a ready-made kit
is it actually cost effective to grow them? The kits are £20+ for a similar volume you can buy in the supermarket. The only other posssibility is if the quaility was better.
From these kits, not really, Doing it all yourself, A very cost effective way if you have the room
The kits should give maybe three good-sized mushrooms, so the price competitiveness perhaps isn't there. But lion's mane mushrooms are very hard to find, so often the only way to enjoy them is to grow them yourself.
Yes, please grow some yourself and show us how!
Could you put it in a propogator rather than another bag?
Yes, I think that would work - anything that enables a more humid environment would work.
Recipes?
Yes, could do with some good, imaginative recipes. This fellow has some good ones: www.youtube.com/@DerekSarnoChef

CLONE MUSHROOM FROM DEHYDRATED ONE !!!
MAKE AIR-BOX " GROW VEGG STYLE "
You have piqued my interest Ben. It seems like a wonderful indoor growing project to do when it's cold and dark outside. Please show us how to start the lions mane off from scratch.
Not allowed to grow it in NZ.
Really? That seems crazy!
Please Ben don't start with the thumbnails.. you're communicating fear.. it hurts the soul..
Just trying something different from this week's thumbnail. The lion's mane is scientifically proven to help concentration etc, so thought this could be a fun and quirky way to communicate that. :-)
Do you have a license for that knife or those scissors?? 👮🏻
No the just a human right of common sense and freedom .
CANNOT WATCH THUMBNAILS THAT HAVE STUPID FACE BECAUSE IT LOSES ALL CREDABILITY FOR ME PERSONALLY! SO WILL NOT WATCH THIS VIDEO!
