Button Mushroom Kit

No store-bought variety compares in taste and texture with a fresh-picked mushroom, and you’ll be picking plenty — over a period of at least 4 to 5 weeks — from this highly-productive kit!Here’s what you get in the Button Mushroom Kit: a lightweight box, preplanted with fine fresh mushroom spawn in a rich mixture of compost and topsoil, plus easy-to-follow instructions. It’s very easy to grow indoors in any cool, dark spot with temperatures between 55 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit.When your kit arrives, be sure to start it immediately. It weighs about 8 pounds, and will yield about 3 pounds of delicious mushrooms. (If you want a larger crop, we also offer a 6-pound kit. )Sorry, we cannot ship this kit to Hawaii.
Children’s Mushroom Garden
Bring the garden indoors and grow not only mushrooms but future gardeners with this fun and easy kit! It contains spawn of Enokitakes (Flammulina populicola) mushrooms, which not only offer a charming elongated shape, but have a nice crisp bite and fruity flavor — nothing like the mushy store-bought ’shrooms kids may have suffered in the past. They grow easily in their clear cylinder, so kids can watch the entire process. And after the first crop is harvested, chances are another one is right behind it!This kit comes with everything you need to get kids started on this project. The instructions are simple and easy to understand, and the process turns out to be very simple, with a forgiving watering schedule and lots of room for error. You don’t need any equipment or special conditions, beyond a place to grow the mushrooms at 40 to 60 degrees F. (You can even do this in the fridge!)Enokitake mushrooms have a satisfying crunchy texture and a sweet flavor, so kids usually like them. And you’ll love sharing this adventure with your children or grandchildren — or giving the kit as a unique and much-appreciated gift!. Ships now
