Cordyceps is a remarkable fungus that has long been coveted for its amazing ability to enhance both physical and mental well-being.
Used in traditional Chinese medicine for more than 300 years, cordyceps sinensis was the first species of cordyceps humans found to have beneficial properties, but this variety only grows out of insects and is very difficult to cultivate. Fortunately, cordyceps militaris boasts similar medicinal properties and can be made to thrive using at home cultivation techniques!
Cordycepin is probably the most noteworthy compound found within cordyceps militaris, known for its potential to boost energy and stamina, support respiratory health, strengthen the immune system, and enhance cognitive function.
In this video, I’ll show you the easiest way to grow cordyceps militaris at home with NO FLOW HOOD REQUIRED! While I recommend using a still air box for this method, the self healing injection ports mean that it’s even possible to get by doing your sterile work in a clean room with minimal air movement.
Whether you're an experienced mushroom cultivator or a curious newcomer, this method will allow you to enjoy a successful harvest with as little gear as possible, so you can start harnessing the incredible benefits of cordyceps!
