DIY 5-step Grow Kits are the most economical way to grow your own nutrient-dense, Oyster mushrooms at home.
 
Ideal for dryer regions, Velvet NZ-Native Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus Parsonsiae) produce huge yields and handle temperatures down to 10 degrees celsius. This is the most beginner friendly indigenous mushroom to try for those who are keen to grow a local variety.
 
***Their large heavy mushroom clusters do produce a large volume of spores so you want to harvest them early to avoid them creating a mess in your growing spot. Velvet oysters produce many times with a 1-4 week wait between harvests.
 
This kit is designed to enable you to Learn and Understand How to grow your own oyster mushrooms at home.
 
The kits are great for kids and adults alike and are an excellent source of delicious gourmet mushrooms that are not certainly not available in your local grocery stores.
 
Each kit once mixed makes a 7KG mushroom grow kit. (That will typically fruit/ flush for up to 6-9 months)
 
The kit is a one-off purchase designed to teach you how to use 'spawn' (mushroom seed/ starting culture) to grow oyster mushrooms. After completing this kit you'll be able to purchase a spawn/ >> REFILL for 5 Step Oyster Kit directly from us ($30 +freight), making growing your own consistent supply of gourmet mushrooms extremely affordable :)
 
Please note this method of growing ONLY works for oyster mushroom varieties (Grey Oyster, Pink Oyster and the Native Velvet Oyster).
