This is great product for people that want to reduce risk of contamination, but don’t have the ability for elaborate set ups. I personally have a had better luck shaking the bag right after inoculating the bag, versus waiting for the grain to fully spawn and then shake.
I overly pleased with having purchased the All-in-One Spawn Bag. The delivery was timely, with no issues or exceptions. I was so concerned and worried about inoculation and how difficult the entire process was going to be, but very much to my surprise, I was amazed at the simplicity of inoculation, especially compared to inoculating the half pint substrate jars that are included with the Simple Grow Kit. I will never buy jars again and stick with spawn bags. My expectations (full of worries) were incorrect and put to rest.
I have tried three different all-in-one grow bags from three different companies. Upon injecting each with the same spore sample, I have found the grain in this bag to spawn quicker and allow for the mycelium to grow faster. While I am still waiting on full colonization, I already see great progress! (I would add a picture but I am trying to disturb the bag as little as possible.)
I purchased these and the items received were as described and expected. The packaging was clean and neat, and the product itself is of good quality. I'm excited to see how my first attempt at cultivating my own mushrooms goes. Things are getting so expensive these days, I figured it'd be better to be able to grow some of my own groceries!
I guess everything was what I expected - clean, professional, clear directions. Top notch. I just hope I was observant enough of conditions to have a good crop!
