This mushroom kit has been wonderful, It had everything with it that I needed to set it up & was really easy to do. The only additional thing I needed was a spray bottle for the water.
I was able to pick my 1st home grown mushrooms, Which were a really good size after just 9 days which was fantastic & they tasted fabulous!, After the 9 days i had a total of about 15 mushrooms. Since these i've had a gap of 10 days with nothing but i'm now having more grow again.
I have found that tying the top of the plastic bag loosly with an elastic bag works much better than their suggestion of just placing the cut cardboard on the top & I only spray with water every 2 days & not daily.
I'm really impressed with this kit & am looking forward to having my next lot of home grown mushrooms with my dinner. I am going to be purchasing another kit so that I have more of a supply but thats only because I eat A LOT of mushrooms!.
They were, however, good enough to send out a new kit which arrived in late September. This kit faired a little better with 3-4 crops of about 7 or 8 mushrooms each time. Then, this kit also became infested with flies and when I contacted the company they said this was typical when the kit was at the end of its life. I know the box only says you will get "several" crops but I really hadn't expected so little.
Watching them grow is fun and if you're buying as a novelty its ok but the price certainly isn't worth the return.
