Why buy mushrooms from the shops when you can simply grow your own with the Myshrooms Mushroom Grow - Button Culture.
To grow your Button Mushroom the mushroom grows best in nitrogen-rich manure, like horse manure. To create an indoor bed for your mushrooms, fill a wooden box thats at least 6 inches deep with manure. Leave a few inches of space below the rim of the box. Spread the inoculated material from your kit on the top of the soil and mist it thoroughly. Keep your bed in the dark, damp, and warm 21 C for the next few weeks.
After a few weeks, you should notice a fine white webbing on the surface of the bed. This is called mycelium, and its the start of your mushroom colony. Cover your mycelium with a couple inches of damp potting soil or peat this is called casing. Lower the beds temperature to 12 C.
Make sure to keep the bed moist. It may help to cover the whole thing with plastic wrap or a few layers of wet newspaper. In about a month, you should start to see mushrooms. Care of button mushrooms after this point is very easy. Harvest them by twisting them out of the soil when youre ready to eat them. Fill in the empty space with more casing to make way for new mushrooms. Your bed should continue to produce mushrooms for 3 to 6 months.
