How to Cultivate

A step-by-step masterclass to achieving explosive oyster mushroom harvests with our lab-grade spawn.

Step 01

Start with a high-quality substrate like straw, sugarcane bagasse, or sawdust.
Chop the material into small pieces (2-4 inches).
Pasteurize the substrate by soaking it in hot water (65-80°C) for 1-2 hours to kill contaminants.
Drain the substrate until it's moist but not dripping wet. Squeeze a handful – only a few drops of water should come out.

Step 02

Once the substrate is cool, you're ready to spawn. Work in a clean area to avoid contamination.
Break up the Smart Mushroom Farming spawn inside the bag until it's loose.
Mix the spawn thoroughly with your prepared substrate. A good ratio is 5-10% spawn to substrate weight.
Pack the mixture firmly into cultivation bags.

Step 03

Place your spawn bags in a dark, clean room with a temperature between 22-26°C.
Mycelium (the white, root-like network) will start to cover the substrate. This is called the 'spawn run'.
The spawn run takes about 15-20 days. The bag should be almost completely white when it's ready.
No light or fresh air is needed during this phase.

Step 04

When the block is fully colonized, move it to the fruiting room.
Cut small 'X' shapes on the bag to allow mushrooms to grow out.
Fruiting conditions: High humidity (85-95%), fresh air, and some indirect light.
Tiny mushroom 'pins' appear in 3-5 days. Harvest by twisting the cluster off at the base in another 4-5 days.
