There are basically three types of kits available at our stores. To pick the perfect mushroom growing kit for yourself, it is best to first understand what the differences are between the three types of kits available. The kits that have the sterilized substrate ready have to be inoculated with the plastic injection, which has the mushroom spores within the liquid provided. If you choose to pick this type of kit, then you need to inject the spores into the substrate yourself and wait for the colonization of the substrate to take place. After the entire substrate is colonized you have to transfer the substrate to the terrarium where the incubation will take place.
The first flush of the mushrooms need to be picked fast as this will enable the second flush to appear within a few days. If handled properly, you can easily get three or more flushes of freshly grown mushrooms right at home.
The second type of ready to take home mushroom growing kit has sterilization of substrate, inoculation of mushroom spores done for you. So, all you need to do is simply take home the kit and wait for the entire substrate to be colonized. After this you will need to transfer the entire colonized substrate to the final substrate also called the terrarium where the mushrooms will start fruiting. The ones which are easiest to fruit are certainly the ones which have all the procedures done by experts at our nursery. Such kits have sterilization, inoculation and colonization procedures carried out in a bead of well prepared substrate which has top quality organic matter mixed with the basic materials required for a perfect substratum to be prepared. Now, the benefit of investing in such kits is that you just have to take it and place it on a box or tray of water.
Next, prick holes at various points in the top layer of the substrate so the mushrooms can sprout out from these points within a few days. Remember to keep the moisture levels at optimum during this phase for proper fruiting of the entire colonized substrate. You can get three or more full crops from this single kit if you follow instructions perfectly. Mushroom growing kits are ideal for people who have the interest and enthusiasm of growing their own mushrooms but have very little time to spare for such activities.
However, think carefully before taking the final decision regarding the type of kit that will suit your needs perfectly. Factors like sufficient space and time to look after the shrooms along with how much money you are willing to spend on the entire project play crucial roles. As we all know, the easiest to handle kits come at a slightly higher price range than the ones that need a little more time and effort.
