Red Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is an edible medicinal mushroom known as “Ling Zhi” in China and “Reishi" or "Manetake” in Japan. It produces beautiful, reddish-brown, shelf-like fruiting bodies that are highly prized for their wellness properties.

Red Reishi is widely cultivated on logs commercially in Asia. However, most commercial producers in North America grow reishi indoors.

Red reishi can be difficult to cultivate and is ideal for advanced and enthusiast growers who have had some success growing other mushrooms.
