Cultivation Profile

Growth Characteristics:
Moderate colonizer; produces thin, bright orange fruiting bodies (“clubs”) with a unique upright growth pattern.

Ideal Conditions

Colonization: 65–75°F (18–24°C) in bright ambient light

Substrates: White rice, enriched grain, nutrient broths, or insect-based substrates such as silkworm pupae

Fruiting: 60–70°F with 75–85% humidity

Lighting: Cordyceps thrives under high light exposure (12–16 hours/day)

Flushes: Typically 1–2 depending on substrate nutrition

Harvest Timing
Harvest when the clubs reach full length and develop a deep, saturated orange color. Avoid over-drying the substrate; consistent moisture improves fruit body density.
