Can I start growing mushrooms without a kit?
A lot of people ask me: can I start growing mushrooms without a kit? The answer
is simple: YES!. Because the science behind it is very simple, almost anyone can
start growing them, you do not have to be a rocket scientist to start your own
micro farm. All you need to do is get a cardboard box, make sure it is wet, and
then start to develop mycelium by inoculating the coffee grounds with mushroom
spores, just make sure that the spores are from the desired mushroom variety
3. that you want to grow. The water level in the lowest box should reach about 2 to
3 of the height of the box, imagine the upper box is in place loaded with jars and
resting on the spacers.
Now you can put the inoculated jars in your cardboard box - Cover the jars with a
blanket to keep them dark. Be careful because the water level drops in some
weeks by evaporation. Therefore you have to fill some fresh water in from time to
time to keep the water level high. Be sure not to evaporate so much water if the
heater isn't submerged in water anymore!
Growing mushrooms requires about 3-5 days of germination. This is mycelium. If
anything grows that is not white, for instance green, black or pink, then the jars
are contaminated and their content must be discarded and your cleaning
procedures need some improvement.
After the jars are empty and the jar is cleaned with detergent and boiling hot
water you can use it again, just make sure the jar is clean enough and stored in a
hygienic area. Read More
