I must admit that before I learned how to grow I bought the kit from Sjamaan. At the time i got three kits for $120 on special, with total yeilds (4 plus flushes) of about 500 wet grams. I would never do it again because i get much more fun out of doing the work myself but it served its purpose at the time.

That's a great deal! I assume you mean 500 per tub.
After the 4th flush of my first one, I chopped the cake and spawned a couple of trays of poo with it. They're colonizing now.

Homestead sells a great product . I have not used the EZ grow kit , but was given a classic kit , I also have an old kit (15yrs old ) I have been using the old supplies (with exception of new spores ) and experimenting . It is turning out much faster than anticipated . As I said they sell a great product and garantee it , would reccomend it if you are lazy .
I agree with Mickey though,...... you could by the stuff yourself for at leat 30% less, but a lot more time finding and deciding what to get is spent .
Mickey .......... In regards to the illegality of it ........ I think they sell it to you seperated , and then you mix together . So it is not premade "substrate" with mycelium growing thru out .
They also have a creative way of shipping for descreteness , mine came in a box marked "PARISHABLE " , and was a box for a seafood suppliy wherehouse . If you chose to buy from them , I personally think for the money , the classic with a cultivators book is the way to go , you get alot more out of it , and learn shitloads more ! Ignore what they say (homestead).............it took 5 weeks for my stuff to come , and person who gave to me used credit card !!!!!!!!!!! Good luck
-------------------- Any information I give is not intended to aide you in the production of potentialy illegal substances !None of my exp comes from growing illegal varities , so take it as you will .

Yes, this is 100% true for the Homestead family of kits. I was talking about the fully colonized trays available from the Netherlands and the UK.

Sjamaan sells illegal spawn. Buyer beware.

I think the main point about the homestead kit (which I have used with great success but Im not that rich) is that it is guaranteed. If you get contams they send you a new kit no questions asked, except for the questions you ask their "support staff"about "cultivation questions". So although it is way expensive (for 108$ i can do the PF tek or rye like 25 times or something... I dunno I never really added it up cause I just seem to have all the ingredients on hand now) but if you're just looking for something easy and want to party it's a good deal. Because honestly c'mon people mycology and home cultivation is a hobby someone has to be pretty passionate about in order to get really good. If you aren't trying to understand the science or the life-cycle of the mushroom is can be alot more trouble than its worth, no matter how much you love the end product.

Ripple, You paid 120 bucks on special for your shroom kits? That's a rip off!!! I checked out a head shop where I live and they're selling them for like 90 bucks for 3!!!!! And that's just regular price.

He was talking about paying that price for trays which were already fully colonized and ready to fruit out of the box.
