This will be my very first time in growing mushrooms. I am shopping for grow supplies and came across two grow kits. Would anyone here recommend ****NON SPONSOR**** If yes, which of these two kits would you recommend for a newbie like myself? ****NON SPONSOR****

I'd recommend spending like 40-50 bucks on nicer versions of the same materials and doing it yourself so that you don't have to deal with what it's like to run a grow kit here.

I hear the The 4 Tier Mushroom Greenhouse can be very convenient and prevent contamination if you are growing different strains of mushrooms at once.

Kits are fine. Sure, yields could be better if you grow from scratch and they are overpriced but hey, kits are convenient. I like how they are pretty resistant to contamination as they come with a colonised substrate.

Yeah, what they send us in the US and Canada and presumably many other countries is just 150 dollars for a bunch of jars and a tub and brown rice flour, with fish tank heaters and goofy shit like that. So about 40 dollars worth of stuff you could get at the store, mailed to your house, as a mushroom growing kit, which if anything, only alerts authorities more that you're doing something illegal.
I can't think of anything bad to say about live-mycelium kits because good procedure can actually be used there and those are sold in countries where the mushroom is decriminalized or legal.
