Mushroom kits have actually had a fair amount of bad press recently with many critics claiming they provide very poor value for money when comparing the yields of the mushroom kits with the actual price of the mushrooms in the shops. I find this a very unfair comparison and feel that it really is wrong to simply compare both with the quantity of mushrooms that they produce.
You can buy mushroom growing kits for only a few different species of mushroom – you will get button mushroom grow kits and you can get oyster mushroom grow kits. These two are the most common and can be purchased for the most part garden centres and usually on garden centre websites. However you may also grow other varieties from more specialist websites, allowing you to grow your own mushrooms like Shiitake, Portobello and much more. buy lsd online cost around �5 to �10 and will probably present you with around �5 worth of mushrooms (if grown in the best possible environment, and depending on the variety as some mushrooms cost more then others in the shops).
I don’t understand why people moan when it costs more to buy a mushroom growing kit then it can to get the mushrooms themselves. A lot of the supermarket mushrooms are grown massively in bulk and are usually grown far away and imported across, where it is so much cheaper to allow them to grow them. Then theres the fact that in a kit you obtain a box and obtain the substrate (compost or straw) in addition to a small bag of spawn. Once you buy mushrooms from a shop you aren’t left with excellent compost for the garden (mushroom compost is among the most expensive and nutritious forms of compost as the mushrooms breakdown and recycle many nutrients within the substrate). And there’s the fact that you’re growing mushrooms yourself – surely the excitement and fun factor are worth paying for too.
For me mushroom growing kits are an excellent way of growing your personal mushrooms and even if sometimes they don’t offer amazing affordability in comparison with the shop price you will learn so much from doing it yourself and can probably take great pride in growing and then eating your own mushrooms. Maybe even once you have learned a bit more about cultivating mushrooms you can cut out the middleman and find your own substrate (straw, newspaper, manure) and purchase or make your own mushroom spawn. That’s where you can get real affordability too, growing hundreds of pounds worth of mushroom from literally a few pounds investm
