All in One Mushroom Grow Bag

Customer Reviews

• A. C.

  Ordered two. First one didn't germinate anything. Second one going strong.

  Product shipped quicker than I expected. The first bag I ordered never grew any oysters. A few days of inoculation I started noticing a reddish brown almost rust-looking deposit on the rye berries. Not sure if that was a bacterial growth, fungal contamination, or some kind of chemical reaction between the ingredients and the moisture, as I had ordered the bag during the height of the summer. But it's arguably my fault as I had waited a couple of days to inoculate the bag to begin with.I almost gave up on the whole growing oyster mushrooms adventure, but I read some of the competitor reviews and decided to give Out Grow one more try. When I got the second bag in the mail, I inoculated it the very same day. I first saw signs of life on day 3 but also started to see some brown slimey looking juice on the bottom of the bag, which had me worried. I patiently watched the bag and tried not to disturb it. The slime juice grew, but so did the white of the mycelium. The race was on. Eventually there was a solidly demarcated white colonization meeting the wet brown rye berries. I decided to take the risk and shake up the bag maybe a few days early, betting that the water is just condensation and contamination, hoping that I could just redistribute the moisture. But I wasn't sure how much to mix up the ingredients in the bag. The moisture did even out and so far the mycelial growth going strong, but I'm not sure if I should have shaken the bag until the straw and the manure were equally mixed with the rye berries? The bag still isn't fully colonized but it hasn't been more that four weeks yet. Does anyone know if I should shake things up further so more of the manure is mixed with the rye berries?

  Happy Mycelium, Big Yield

  I inoculated in less than 1 minute. The mycelium got to an easy 30%, and I broke it apart, making sure to mix all of the ingredients in the bag 2 separate times. In the end, I had a very happy, very healthy mycelium, and a substrate with a great structure (thank you straw for being fibrous it's great for structure). I did submerge the substrate in the bag before the first flush and sprinkled some vermiculite. But other than scraping, submerging, and casing, this bag had basically been doing 100% of the work. I am just about to do a 4th, and maybe even a 5th flush.

  It's easy to use. I've had no issues

  It's easy to use. This is my second time ordering and I love it. I only wish it was a bit cheaper but all in all it's great.

  Great product! Great Company!

  This product is fantastic and Outgrow as a company is also a great bunch of people. I got my "All In One" grow bag and had a contamination issue (Bacterial not a mold or fungus) Outgrow was very quick to respond to me emails and replaced the bag right away once they saw it was contaminated. Customer service with them is excellent and honest! I will be ordering from them until the wheels fall off! I was totally blown away in a very positive way by my whole experience even though some of it wasn't optimal, I learned something important about Straw/Rye Berries/Manure in a closed ecosystem and the problems that can arise from that. Finally I will add this. I had 2 golf ball sized pieces of Mycelium survive the contamination, because I'm not someone with rigid beliefs and I was shooting for a silver lining I rinsed off the Mycelium, Pasteurized the contaminated substrate @190 degrees (A little high but I was trying to kill bacteria) until it went from smelling like gross feet to a woody mushroom smell. I took a small aluminum pie dish (Palm sized), sterilized it and reintroduced the living mycelium to the substrate. Today I'm about 5 days away from fruiting. Granted it is a very small amount of what was originally in the bag but because it was a sealed secure ecosystem trouble shooting and trying something to salvage something from the contamination worked for me this time. I wouldn't have been able to salvage anything if this was a substandard product. These guys have a great option for people interested in mycology but who isn't an expert cultivator yet, and if something goes wrong that you as a customer had nothing to do with as far as contamination they would in theory replace your bag like they did mine. Thank you very much @Outgrow I am thankful to have a product like this available!

  Good for starters!

  I wanted to get into the hobby of growing some mushrooms and my friend suggested an all-in-one bag. This bag was perfect, its small enough that it doesn't take up any space really. It holds all the steps that it takes to grow some okay quality shrooms. Also, the fact that it is all in one helps you from accidents and contamination that when you are growing from a box, it is harder to prevent that contamination.Of course the finished product you get is sorta small compared to that of growing out of a box, but if you just want to start out with this stuff, you should start with this!
