By Marissa Velazquez


Anyone looking to buy mushroom growing kits will be aware of what terrific projects they make. Saving money, learning, having fun, and creating a supply of delicious food makes them an attractive prospect for keen cooks and horticulturists everywhere. Here is a brief overview of what to expect when embarking upon this uniquely satisfying pastime.

Kits are suitable for both beginners and seasoned growers alike. They make the whole process very easy, and the reduced effort needed to produce fungi in this way easily compensates for the initial cost. Also, you can grow virtually any kind of fungi you desire. You are not limited to the varieties you can find in your local supermarket. In addition, by growing your own fungi you eliminate the risk of harvesting poisonous varieties from the wild.

There are a terrific variety of fungi you can grow at home, including shitake, maitake, crimini, portabello, oyster, enoki and plain button variety. Although the principles of fungi cultivation are universal, be aware that each variety will have its own growing requirements. Some do best on compost, while others do best on wood or other products.

There is a huge selection of kits on the market, and they can be found at home and garden centers and of course online. If you prefer to go the organic route, these are available too. You should be aware that the quality of kits can vary, with some manufacturers producing better ones than others. It's therefore always best to buy from a reputable supplier.

A product will basically consist of fungi mycelium and substratum for growing them on. The substratum can be wood, wood-chip, sawdust, straw or a number of other materials. They should be sterilised and ready for cultivation once prepared.

Preparation will generally consist of cooling the substance in water and/or the refrigerator, then placing it in a suitable area ready for the fungi to spawn. Your kit will provide full instructions on the correct preparation for the substratum. This cooling simulates fall climatic conditions and stimulates the mycelium to spawn the fungi.

It is best to place your fungi in a dark, cool, moist environment for growing. A basement is often a good place, or under a sink. A good idea is to check the temperature of your intended growing space to ensure it is in the ideal range. Most fungi do best in a temperature of between fifty-five and sixty degrees Fahrenheit. They should be kept away from drafts, heat and anything else that may dry them out.

Once you have decided on a good place for cultivation, all you then need do is spritz your substratum every day to keep it moist. Within a few weeks your fungi should be ready for harvesting. If done every day, you should get crops for some months. When you buy mushroom growing kits you are investing in a terrific way to grow your own food. Many folks start this way and find it to be an incredibly satisfying way to get a steady supply of delicious fresh food.
