Q: Can you put these into an alive tree? Or does it have to be a cut log?

As I understand it, shiitake mushrooms are saprophytic, that is they consume the wood they grow on. They are traditionally grown on freshly cut, hardwood logs. So no, don't try to grow them on a living tree. Read Paul Stamet's Mycelium Running for everything you could possibly want to know about growing gourmet mushrooms.

Q: can this whole process be carried out in the garden? Purely outdoor. Have no room indoors to start the process. Appreciate any advice. Thank you.

Our Shiitake log growing kits are designed for outdoor growing. For indoor growing we recommend you check out our Oyster Mushroom growing kits!

Q: Should I remove moss on log

Yes, we advise that all moss is removed from the log before inoculating with the Shiitake dowels.

Q: How long after delivery can i wait to "sow" plugs. want to give as a christmas present so worried if i get too early. how do i store before giving?

This is the 'gift' version of our Shiitake Log Growing Kit, so a voucher is included instead of the live mushroom spawn. This allows the recipient of the kit to redeem their voucher online to claim their spawn at a time that suits them (at no extra cost). We use this system as mushroom spawn is a living organism that requires specific storage conditions and to be used within a certain timeframe. Sending them out this way ensures freshness, high quality and lets you/the recipient choose when you/they wish to start growing.
