THE CULT CLASSIC METHOD FOR GROWING MUSHROOMS IN BULK
The Millet Grain Spawn and CVG Mushroom Substrate Bundle takes the prep work off your hands so you can skip to the best part: watching your mushrooms grow!
We all love a good grow, but it can take a lot of time and effort trying to gather all of the things needed to cultivate a successful harvest from scratch. This is why we've bundled together everything you need: our best-selling millet grain spawn and CVG substrate, expertly prepared and ready to use.
No more hunting around for supplies or spending hours on prep. Just fresh materials, proven results and more time to enjoy the process. Perfect for refilling a Martian MonoTub, this bundle will keep you going grow after grow.
Because once you've experienced that first successful harvest and caught the mushroom growing bug, you'll want to do it all over again
SPORES NOT INCLUDED
Millet Grain Spawn + CVG Bulk Substrate (regular refill)
HOW TO USE
The process is simple:
Inoculation: Start by injecting the sterilised grain spawn bag with your chosen mushroom spores or culture (available separately).
Colonisation: Allow the substrate to colonise. Once at around 30% mycelium coverage, mix the bag fully. Our optimally hydrated millet and milo blend is superior to many other grains like rye as it colonises more rapidly and resists contamination.
Spawning: Once fully colonised, mix the grain spawn with the included bulk substrate bag (for a perfect 2:1 ratio) and transfer it to the MonoTub container.
Fruiting: Maintain the ideal conditions, and soon you’ll see mushrooms begin to fruit right before your eyes!
Gone are the days of having to trawl through decade-old forum posts to figure out the fascinating but often confusing science that is growing mushrooms. Our step-by-step, easy-to-follow guide ensures a successful harvest, eliminating guesswork and making the whole process a breeze.
GROWING CONDITIONS
Temperature:
Colonisation: Mycelium (the vegetative part of the fungus) colonises the substrate best at around 24-27°C (75-80°F)
Fruiting: For the fruiting stage when mushrooms begin to develop, slightly cooler temperatures (about 21-24°C, or 70-75°F) are recommended.
Humidity: High humidity (over 90-95%) is essential for healthy, large fruits. Use misting, humidifiers, or a fruiting chamber to maintain humidity.
Light:
Colonisation: Complete darkness is preferred for rapid colonisation.
Fruiting: Indirect sunlight or ambient light is sufficient.
Fresh Air Exchange (FAE): Proper ventilation is necessary to provide the growing mushrooms with fresh air and prevent the buildup of carbon dioxide, which can inhibit growth.
Sterility: Maintaining a clean and sterile environment is paramount to prevent contamination from other fungi or bacteria, which can compete with the mycelium and hinder its growth.
INGREDIENTS
Good ingredients make for excellent grow kits. That is why we only use 100% natural and organic CVG substrate and proprietary millet and milo grain blend in our kits. We only use the high-quality, natural ingredients for our products, specifically selected to support the optimal growth of mushrooms.
Our Sterilised CVG Mushroom Substrate is a premium blend of coco coir, vermiculite, and gypsum, optimised for high nutrient availability and moisture retention. This substrate has been designed to support impressive yields while reducing contamination risks.
We pair this with our optimally hydrated millet and milo blend. These small, nutrient dense grains are ideal for spawn production because they colonise quickly and resist contamination better than many other grains, including rye. We first soak and then cook our grain, carefully hydrating it to around 50% water content before sterilising the bags in a computer-controlled steam autoclave for 2 hours at 121°C.
