THE KIT!Here is this first mushroom kit ever purchased in the history of Greengineering! I purchased this one from Whole Foods and started it on Friday 3/16/2012. I also purchased a second one for my Mycelium students to start in class on Monday 3/19/2012.

The Myceliated
BagInside the box was this bag of Myceliated recycled coffee grounds. Hopefully this is what our containers will look like once the Mycelium team is able to inoculate a substrate (sawdust, or some other organic material).

First StepThe first step was to fill a container with cool tap water and put aside.

Second Step:Once your container of water is filled, the next step is to cut a plus sign; or visually an “ + “ into the bag.

Third Step:Now that the bag has been cut, and the container of water is ready, place the bag into the water.

Fourth Step:
The bag will float. To ensure that the bag stays completely submerged place something with weight on top of it. Here you can see I chose a 2 liter soda bottle I had in the recycling bin.

After 24 hours the bag is removed from the water, wiped down and placed back in the mushroom kit box (there is a dotted outline of a panel on the front of the box that is to be removed. Now you just have to spray the “ + “ with water twice a day and wait for your glorious oyster mushrooms to grow!
