Yea. We decided to go ole timey. We want it to be serious too. We crammed a lot of info on the label. Including a list of bio actives.

I like the labels! Where are you getting the 2oz bottles? I scoured the net and found 1oz and 4oz for under a buck but couldn't manage to find the 2oz ones for as cheap for some reason

Nice labels, Av! Good clear font and the picture is a great touch.

Yeah, but once I factor in shipping, for the small quantities I need it comes to like $1.40ea (for 24). Guess I'm just cheap
AV, just curious, what's the 2x mean?

Container and packaging dot com. .32 piece. 2x means double extracted. The droppers run about .48 a piece.

Looks very sharp and professional, AV. Nice job. Out of curiousity, unless it's a high-level trade secret, what do you get for a two ounce bottle of double extract?

Nice labels.
Just throwing it out there - but look at your label from a non-mushroom person's perspective. Maybe the word 'Fungal' will be associated with infections, germs and skin conditions.

Good point, but I think the kind of people that would actually buy them would know enough to know the difference. Mostly anyway. I mean I'm not gonna buy reishi unless I have some idea of what it does, you know? I get what you mean about the word fungal though... kinda icky

Maybe on subsequent printings, Mycological or Mycelium might be substituted for the word Fungal?

Ask twenty people at random what first comes to mind when you say the word fungus. The people I have ask overwhelmingly say athlete's foot.
