Lion's Pride (Hericium erinaceus)
The Culture: Drawn from our proprietary liquid culture, "Lion's Pride" is a premier commercial strain bred specifically to produce massive, tightly-packed, show-quality fruiting bodies.
The Profile: The ultimate showstopper for farmer's markets and high-end chefs. Rather than growing loose and shaggy, this strain forms incredibly dense, heavy, spherical "pom-poms." This dense structure translates to a firmer, meatier culinary texture that is absolutely perfect for slicing into thick "steaks" and pan-searing.
History & Benefits: A favorite among commercial cultivators for its market weight and aesthetic appeal. It retains all the legendary functional properties of the Hericium family, packed with neuro-supporting compounds utilized to boost focus, mental clarity, and overall brain health.
Fruiting Conditions: Performs flawlessly on supplemented hardwood (HWFP) or masters mix. Prefers standard fruiting temperatures between 60°F – 70°F with high humidity (85-95%) and excellent fresh air exchange to fully develop its iconic teeth.
