Home Cultivation Made Simple

  • 1. Pasteurize

    Submerge chopped straw in hot water (170°F) for 90 minutes; or alkaline water (pH 11.5) for 8 hours. Drain thoroughly, then spread the straw onto a table.

  • 2. Inoculate

    Mix grain spawn with pasteurized straw at a ratio of 1:10. Fill mushroom grow bags or poly tubing with your substrate, then store at 68-72°F for 7-14 days.

  • 3. Fruit

    Mushrooms will start to grow anywhere there is oxygen and moisture. This can be as simple as cutting a hole in your container and watering it with a bottle!

West Coast Cultivation

Did you know that all you need to grow mushrooms at home is straw, hydrated lime, and grain spawn? Our mission is to make it easier to grow mushrooms at home by simplifying the cultivation process for farms and home gardeners. Join our Mushroom Cultivation Workshops for a fun intro to mycology or start with our favorite Phoenix Oyster Grow Kit!

Let's Grow!

Ready to start growing mushrooms at home? Our grow kits are the best way to get started, giving you the experience of learning how to fruit mushrooms first. If you're ready to dive into mushroom cultivation, one bag of grain spawn is an affordable way to grow 25lbs of mushrooms with simple techniques like cold-pasteurization! To save even more money, liquid culture is used to make your own grain spawn but requires a still air box or laminar flow hood to use properly. Please attend one of our Mushroom Cultivation Workshops if you want an immersive learning experience or help with any of our products!
