How Long Will a Mushroom Grow Kit Last?
Most mushroom grow kits will produce mushrooms for 1 to 3 months, depending on the variety and how well the kit is cared for. After your first flush (harvest), you may get a second or third flush if you continue to mist and keep the conditions right.
For longer-lasting results, consider mushroom plugs which can provide harvests for years when placed in logs outdoors.
Should Mushroom Kits Be Kept in the Dark?
Not necessarily. While mushrooms like a low-light environment, they don’t need complete darkness.
Before you're ready to set up your kit, store it in a cool, dark place like a basement or refrigerator. Just be sure to follow the specific storage instructions that come with your kit, as some varieties may have different needs.
Once you're ready to grow, bring the kit to a spot with fresh air flow and consistent humidity. Just avoid direct sunlight, which can dry out your kit and harm the mushrooms. A north-facing window or a shady spot usually does the trick.
What is the Fastest Growing Edible Mushroom?
Oyster mushrooms are some of the fastest-growing edible mushrooms. The blue oyster mushroom grow kit can begin producing mushrooms in as little as 7 to 10 days after setup.
These mushrooms grow quickly and produce beautiful clusters with a mild, savory flavor perfect for stir-fries and soups.
Some other fast-growing vegetables that may complement your mushrooms include arugula, lettuce, and spinach.
What is the Best Mushroom to Grow for Beginners?
Shiitake and lion’s mane mushrooms are great for first-time growers. Lion’s mane is a smart choice if you’re looking for both flavor and health benefits. It contains antioxidants and natural compounds that support memory, focus, and immune health.
You can cook it like scallops, toss it into pasta, or even dry it and grind it into a powder for teas or supplements. It grows well indoors with little effort, making it a fun and beneficial mushroom for any beginner to try.
There are a few other vegetables that are perfect for beginners, including but not limited to cucumbers and squash. Check out our full collection of easy-to-grow veggies for the ultimate garden-to-table experience.
What is the Difference Between Mushroom Grow Kits and Plugs?
Mushroom grow kits come ready to use—just mist and watch them grow indoors. They’re perfect for beginners or those with limited space.
Mushroom plugs, on the other hand, are small dowels infused with mushroom spores. You’ll need to drill holes in a hardwood log and insert the plugs, then wait a few months to a year for your first harvest.
Kits offer quick results, while plugs offer long-term harvests and are ideal for outdoor growing.
