Typically, you can expect your first harvest within 3-4 weeks after setup.
Gently twist the mushrooms at the base to detach them from the growing medium.
You can typically get 3 or more pickings from a single kit.
Use tap water that has been allowed to sit out for 24 hours to let the chlorine dissipate, or use bottled water.
Place the kit in a location with indirect sunlight and a consistent temperature, such as a windowsill.
Harvest mushrooms when they are at your desired size. Overgrown mushrooms are still edible, but may not have the best texture.
The growing medium is designed for one-time use. After the final harvest, the kit should be discarded.
Check the temperature and humidity levels. Ensure the growing medium is moist, and the kit is not exposed to direct sunlight.
Ensure proper air circulation and maintain consistent moisture levels. Consider increasing the humidity slightly.
Remove any mold immediately. Improve air circulation. If the mold is extensive, the kit may need to be discarded.
