MUSHROOM GROW KITS
Grow your own mushrooms from home! Our grow kits come ready to fruit. Each kit contains a 5 lb block of colonized substrate, spray bottle, and instructions. Simply cut open the bag, spray a couple times per day to keep moist, and within 1-2 weeks your mushrooms will start to grow. Yields roughly 1 lb of mushrooms for the first flush and sometimes a second, smaller flush. This is the perfect item or gift for beginning growers. Right now we have limited stock but check back in early November for more.
ABOUT OUR MUSHROOMS
We grow our mushrooms indoors in grow tents to be able to control humidity and temperature. They are not certified organic, but we do not spray or use any chemicals in their production. If you purchase our product, they are clean and do not need to be washed before eating. The best way to store is in a paper bag in the refrigerator.
Growing process
We begin by sterilizing grain spawn and injecting it with liquid culture. Once this is colonized, we mix that into our substrate bags, which have been cooked in a barrel overnight to kill any bacteria. The bags are left in the dark to colonize until they are ready, at which point we place them in our grow room, a tent that is kept at 80%-90% humidity and temperature controlled. Once the blocks fruit, we harvest and place in our walk in cooler until they go to market.
Varieties
We grow shiitakes, lions mane, pioppini, blue oyster, golden oyster, black king oyster, king trumpet, hen of the woods, and chestnut. Availability may vary so contact us if you are interested in a specific variety.
