King Stropharia, Wine Cap, Garden Giant Mushroom, Burgundy Mushroom, Stropharia Rugosoannulata - the mushroom of many names and many uses. This kit contains 2KG of spawn and will setup a 1m x 1m patch that will grow larger overtime.
These excellent garden mushrooms are masters of decomposition as they turn wood into soil (while holding in moisture and unlocking nutrients making it available for plants/crops) and produce delicious, meaty mushrooms.
King Stropharia is excellent in permaculture as it's an aggressive recycler with a dense mycelial mat (aka mushroom roots) capable of grey water filtration. It's an excellent companion for corn and supports overall soil health.
The Garden Giant has been known to help beneficial insects including bees and help build a healthy soil microbiome. Not only do they encourage beneficial garden insects (and are reported to boost bee immunity) but they also help your plants grow!
Once patch is made it can begin producing mushrooms within 2-12 months.
