The CHIEF NIWOT Oyster Mushroom

The CHIEF NIWOT oyster mushroom strain is a reliable strain with a wide temperature range. Several farms that we're working with are pleased with the results of growing this strain. When I asked them if they like better the Hungarian HK, I was told we prefer the Chief Niwot because of this and that.. Just to remind you - the Hungarian HK is considered one of the best oyster mushroom strains worldwide.
