Grey Oyster Mushroom Grow Kit

Growing mushrooms at home has never been simpiler:

• Place the kit in a room with natural light

• Cut a hole in the side 
• Spray with water
• Sit back and watch the mushrooms grow

Our role:

• We pasturise waste coffee, straw, and woodchip to remove any other fungi living on the growth medium
• We then inncoluate the mixture with grey oyster mushroom spawn
• The mixture is then incubated in our farm for two weeks until the mushroom spawn has colonised the mixture

Detailed instructions

• Cut a hole in the box around the dotted line and then cut a ‘X’ in the plastic bag underneath.
• Place the kit in a room with natural light
• Using a spray bottle, water the kit once per day and wait 7-10 days for the mushrooms to grow
• When the mushroom caps start to flatten, they are ready to pick.
• Pick the mushrooms by twisting or cutting them where the stem meets the block
• To maximise the growth of successive crops, remove the block from the cardboard box, soak in a bucket of water overnight, drain and return to the box.
• Each kit produces approximately 500 – 600g of mushrooms over several crops
