Forest Origins Mushroom Grow Kit – 3-Pack Trio (Pink, Brown, White Oyster) | Indoor Growing Kit | Non-GMO, Easy to Grow in 10 Days | Handmade in California | Gift for Gardeners & Foodies

We got the trio along with a golden from another seller and set them up in some $10 plastic boxes from the garden store. After set up(super easy), we sprayed the inside of the boxes in the morning and night. Were in Colorado so it's very dry, you may have to just do 1 a day. The mushrooms grow from fuzz to cluster very quickly! It's so satisfying to be able to see growth change within a day by the naked eye. They are an amazing opportunity for a science, farming, harvesting, foraging, and cooking lesson!! Cool for kids and adults! We have gotten several flushes which makes it all the more worth it to have them. We love the mushrooms cooked in butter and turned into a cream sauce!

I was amazed by the results. You MUST mist them twice a day and you will have success. I tried to do this as close to every 12 hours a possible. Mine grew within 3 days and every few hours I could honestly see a difference! The Red and Brown ones were the first to blossom. The White was a little slower but I was glad because mushrooms have a week shelf life in the refrigerator and it spaced them out well for me as far as use. After I harvested them, I emailed the company to find out if I could get a second crop. The customer service is EXCELLENT. They emailed me back that day with instructions to attempt this. I followed them and the red ones have lots of small babies growing very quickly. The white and brown are not doing anything yet. But I will be patient and see what happens. These are GREAT sautéed in butter and used on steak and I also make homemade Cream of Mushroom soup with them....FANTASTIC and flavorful. I love these! I do wish they were not so expensive since buying them in Whole Foods is much less, but I have a greenhouse and really like to grow my own things. It's worth it for me.

These kits are great for first time mushroom growers. It gets you familiar with how the growth cycle works, how to harvest and how to collect the spores to do it all over again. The pink and white oyster mushrooms grew quickly and provided two flushes (two clusters that I could harvest). The not-so-good: Frustratingly, the brown oyster mushroom never grew. Not only that, but after buying the three mushroom kit I found another resource that sold the same kinds of mushrooms (and more) for a fraction of the price. So, if you wanna do some research to find the best deal, don't buy these. If you just want something to get started with mushroom cultivation and want the easiest path, buy these.

Original review: Only one of the three grew from the first shipment even though we followed the instructions meticulously. The one that grew was great. Easy instructions, but the other two just molded. Expensive for only one pod to grow. First update: wanted to comment on Forest Origins customer service- I found their website, sent an email, uploaded pictures, and they sent 2 new pods to replace the 2 that did not grow. I am hopeful these will grow but appreciate the great customer service. Second update: changed my rating to 5 stars following Forest Origins great customer service and our success growing the 2 replacement kits. These were super yummy and so much fun. Have added pictures of the pink and brown replacement grow kits.

I remember when this was about $20 less. I had purchased a set for myself and my nieces. It was fairly easy to use, fun. Mushrooms needed a lot of water. Can’t remember if we ended up eating them. Was going to rebuy for my 4-yr old to try now that’s he older, but at almost $30 a log, I think I’ll pass

One week in and they’re all growing. So far so good.

I have been growing mushrooms in a tent grow system with a fan for the past few months. I have been ordering grow kits from various companies to find the best one for me. These had good reviews and could be on Subscribe and Save so I thought I would try them. They are small but seem to be producing enough mushrooms for the size BUT the pink and brown oyster are getting mold on the bottom half of the block. Today I cut the bottom half off and hope it controls the mold since the top of the block is fruiting. I have never had this problem before even when my system was over humidifying. Not all the blocks they sell will mold I just think two of the blocks I have were contaminated. The white oyster is not molding nor are the other mushrooms I have in the system.

We have had a ball with these. Easy to get started and so so so so delicious. It’s hard to go back to normal mushrooms after eating our own fruits of labor
