What is a magic mushroom grow kit?
A grow kit is a way to easily grow your own magic mushrooms. 
The grow kit contains:
- 1x grow box with substrate containing living mycelium (the spores that have developed)
- 1x transparent grow bag with airfilter
- 2x paperclips
The substrate in the Magic mushroom grow kit
consists of rye, vermiculite and perlite. The development of the spores into the mycelium has been done in a sterile laboratory. The only thing that needs to be done to grow the magic mushrooms out of this mycelium is putting the grow box in a warm, light and humid environment. For this you use the transparent grow bag and the clothespin.
You will need access to clean tapwater or mineral water and a warm spot with a temperature between 18°C en 29°C to put the kit to develop. Everything is explained in the magic mushroom growkit manual in a simple way. It also includes tips and recommendations to get the largest produce possible out of the kit.
How long will it take before the magic mushrooms will grow?
After the preparation process, which uses minimal effort and is done within the length of a day, your first mushrooms will pop out of the substratum after two weeks! Harvesting can begin a few days later.
How many magic mushrooms will you get out of the grow kit?
The growing process can be repeated several times, until the nutrients in the substratum are depleted. The first flush (growing spree) will be the largest and the following flushes will be smaller and smaller until no mushrooms grow up anymore. The average result after depletion is between the 300 and 400 grams of fresh mushrooms when the ideal conditions are met. If you take in account that the recommended dose is a portion of 15 grams fresh mushrooms, we will let you do the math!
When will you have the grow kit in your possession?
When we have received your payment, we will ship your order the next business day. Orders will be shipped using United Parcel Service (UPS) and to select countries using PostNL. When placing the order you can choose the shipping method. Here you can see the expected delivery time as well. Generally speaking this is between 1-7 business days to countries in Europe, but this is just an indication and it greatly depends on the local postal services in the country delivering to. Don’t worry! The mycelium in the grow kit can survive up to 14 days in room temperature before they get stressed!

What can go wrong with the magic mushroom grow kit?
Make sure to check on arrival that the content of the carton box is not damaged. The lid of the plastic growbox should be fixed firmly and it is closed with a plastic seal. When one or both of them are removed during transport, contact us as soon as possible!
Make sure you
read the instructions carefully and thoroughly before commencing. Then not much can go wrong. Before you put your hands inside the grow bag, make sure to wash your hands thoroughly with soap or antibacterial handgel (or wear sterile gloves) to minimize the risk of contamination with bacteria and fungi. Never breath inside the growbag!
How to grow successfully from your mushroom grow kit
The temperature in the grow kit and grow bag should be right for the mushrooms to grow. Make sure that the kit stays between 18°C and 29°C (23°C is optimal), also at night. When the temperature is higher or lower than this, the mushrooms will either grow very slow or not at all. Eventually producing less mushrooms than could be expected.
Do not put the grow kit in direct sunlight, because it will be too hot for the mushrooms to grow and the substratum will dry out, not producing mushrooms.
When the mushrooms are almost mature, pick them right away. In the manual is written how to recognize ripe ones.
When you pick them too late, they will drop their spores. This will make the contents of the grow bag color black as you can see in the picture.
This is of no effect to your health or the trip, but the energy used for this to happen, will be wasted and you will produce less mushrooms.
Be a responsible grower and user
Always make sure to keep the mushroom grow kit away from children and animals. Only order products that are legal in your country. Re-use your cultivation supplies as much as possible. If you want to consume mushrooms make sure to do this in a responsible way. Read our responsible use.
