Key features of our mushroom growing kit
Our instructions will take you step-by-step through the process: https://qr.io/r/mh59PF
It includes email and phone service available to ask any questions.
With our kits, you can grow up to 19 different varieties of mushrooms

Other kits
Traditional mushroom kits offer limited options (4 or 5 varieties)
The bag arrives fully colonised with mushroom culture. It is a more straightforward option as it removes part of the process, such as inoculation and incubation. However, doing so omits vital learning steps for anyone who wants to be an accomplished mushroom grower. For example, it is like buying a grown plant at bunnings, which requires only watering to bloom.

What is included in our spawn kit?
1x Syringe with 10cc of Liquid Culture of your choice
1x bag of sterile spawn and substrate
3x Alcohol wipes
1x 18 G Sharp Needle.

What are some of the easiest varieties to grow? Oyster mushrooms Kits

The Pleurotus Ostreatus family such as:
Pink Oyster
Blue oyster
Yellow Oyster
White Oyster
King of Pearl Oyster
Princess of Pearl Oyster

Although lion's mane is not from the oyster family it is still very easy to grow and they’re delicious.

What are some of the steps required for this kit?
Choose the specie you want to grow according to your level of expertise and the location you are based in (follow the temperature range guide in the second photo)(Side fruiting varieties are more manageable than top fruiting ones).
Inoculate the bag following the right sanitation procedures
Incubate the bag
Once colonised, proceed with the fruiting instructions

Everything you need to start

Who can buy the kit?
Anyone interested in buying an educational tool to learn a new skill and who is willing to become more knowledgeable. This kit will teach you the entire process from start to finish. It is suitable for all ages. Kids, however, need to be supervised by an adult as there is a sharp needle in the kit.

Keep in mind
This kit is intended for educational and entertainment purposes only. Expect a small harvest as it is just a 1 kg bag.
It may require patience. It takes about 45 to 60 days for the entire process, sometimes longer in winter.
Use the bag upon arrival. The traditional kits sold in the market can be kept in the fridge. Our bags can only be placed in the fridge once fully colonised.
You dispose of time and energy to read and learn about mushrooms. It is critical to pay close attention to the instruction and safety guidelines provided.
You know your current weather and can choose as per temperature guidelines and your experience level.
You can provide them with care and humidity.
Although allergies to spores are rare, so it is critical to keep your distance if you react allergically to them.
