Growing shiitakes, whether for home or commercial use, requires problem-solving. Some problems are strictly environmental; others include pests and pathogens. Many pest and pathogen issues can be traced back to inoculating logs that are not freshly cut. The more time logs sit prior to inoculation, the greater the risk of contamination from weed fungi that can outcompete the inoculated species during colonization. Using fresh-cut logs from the appropriate tree species can help mitigate problems with colonization and fruiting.
