Book Grow Kit
Grow Grey Oyster mushrooms on your own book. Our kits give you all you need to grow and harvest your own crop of Grey Oyster Mushrooms on your own book of choice.
Description
Oyster mushrooms are the world’s great recyclers, and this kit is a wonderful project for anyone wanting to learn more about growing mushrooms. Our Book Grow Kit comes with everything you need to get growing; you just need to decide which book. At Caley Brothers HQ, we’re fascinated with the growing ability of Oyster Mushrooms and this kit will show you how they can grow on many different substrates. So here we have created our own small-scale kit to give you a taste of growing mushrooms from scratch.
This fascinating growing technique was pioneered by Adrian Ogden of Gourmet Woodland Mushrooms in 2004.
