Latin: Inonotus obliquus
Strain number: 454773892067 / M9746
Package size: 1000 pcs

Chaga is “planted” on a tree using wooden dowels carrying chaga mycelium. The dowels are made by propagating a mushroom in the top mushroom laboratory of our partner Mycelia in Belgium. The Mycelia laboratory was founded in 1985 by mycologist Magda Verfaillie, and its main activities are the production of mycelia, research and development. In the laboratory, chaga is grown and propagated on wooden dowels, ready for planting.

Mycelium is extremely sensitive to transportation. Our biggest enemy is temperature. When mycelium is transported in warm conditions > 5°C (41°F), it will start to grow.
