Grow Hardware
    #7749563 - 12/12/07 02:12 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

Hi all, first post here.  I have a question regarding the hardware needed.  I'm looking for something compact and easy to use and came across this on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Mushroom-Grow-Kit-automated-system-with-free-magic_W0QQitemZ270194696154QQihZ017QQcategoryZ45206QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Now it seems like it would be perfect (it even dries the mushrooms!) and the price seems reasonable to me, but I know nothing about growing!  Any thoughts?

Excellent little community, by the way.

Looks just like a Mycodome



Does seem a lot of cash for what it does you could get a lot more pf tek cakes in a rubbermaid.

I'd also have a look at RR's videos as a good introduction to the PF Tek.


edit: you could do compact with:
1. Jars incubate in a cupboard.
2. fruit in a small rubbermaid with perlite (show in the video)
3. there are many really easy way to dry them.

probably cost a quater of the price.

This is part 1, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHJQrsZFQdE you can find links to the other 3 parts on youtube.

I know it's expensive for what it does, but it does seem really easy and convenient.

Thanks for the input guys.

funny how the ad for it on the e-bay listing goes on about how its great for kids to learn about mushrooms, when the mushrooms growing in it look very much like cubensis. i wish i got to learn about cubes when i was a kid!

Look up me and a few guys have a thread going where we started growing for as cheep as we can. Look for the "Cost of getting started thread" You can see how much a kit is a rip-off unless you are rich or have no time.

growing mushies can be cheap  and have a greater set-up..  Shit!  just buy a 10 gallon tank  and grow it in there..  Includes lights, heater, air pump. Everything included in auction.  Throw a clear trashbag over it.  :tongue:
