## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you put the humidity tent over the growing bag or growing bag inside the tent with the tent open at the top?**
A: The bag with the mushrooms goes INTO the humidity bag..leave the top open and make sure you puncture holes into the mushroom bag as the instructions say...and mist them from the top every day ..that's what I did....mine were grown inside...took longer for them to pop but they finally did when I wasn't paying any attention to them....I was pretty happy with my harvest..

**Q: Never did this before, do i need a special room or temp in my home? i live in nj usually 72 degrees in my home and winter is approaching.**
A: We are growing ours on the dining room table. We keep the house at 73. Misting the bag once a day is all we do. AND we are already getting mushrooms starting after only a week and a half!

**Q: Is the growing bag just placed in the cellophane bag, with the top of the cellophane bag open? Or should the cellophane bag go over the grow bag?**
A: Place grow bag inside cellophane bag and leave the cellophane bag open at all times.  You will must the bag daily.

**Q: What is the substrate made from?**
A: Wood tri-blend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Watching these mushrooms grow is so very interesting, successful, and delicious
*by J***. on October 21, 2018*

The media could not be loaded. Although I am experienced in growing food plants indoors both under lighting in soil and hydroponically, I have never attempted growing mushrooms before. So I wasn't sure what to expect from this kit. Lion's Mane mushrooms are supposed to help the brain, and supposedly have the taste and texture of lobster (which I love). Since my family loves mushrooms, and I decided to try this kit. When I got the kit, it looked like mushrooms developing in the growing bag. I had set up the growing bag per the instructions by cutting 2 two inch slits about 2 inches from the bottom on each side and placed it in the humidity bag. I placed the humidity bag with the growing bag in it on a plate placed on a chair in the dining room near an LED AeroGarden that is on for 16 hours a day. I faithfully misted the inside of the humidity bag 2-3 times day using softened well water. I was seeing changes in the growing medium as white mycelium cover the medium, but after 7 days, nothing was growing out of the slits I cut in the growing bag.On the 9th day, I noticed small white globs coming out of all 4 of the slits I had cut into the growing bag. Could these be the start of mushrooms that I had not so patiently been waiting for??? On the 10th day, they had grown larger. I smiled at them thinking "Maybe I'm not a mushroom grower failure after all". I have included pictures showing the growth of my lion's mane mushrooms on the 10th day, and will update this review as the mushrooms grow.For those of you who are new at growing mushrooms as I am, I can assure you that patience helps. Judging from answers I got from the Amazon community, the initial growth to see mushrooms can vary from 3 days to 2 weeks depending on lighting, humidity, and even the inoculation of spores in the medium you received.. As my mushrooms grow, assuming that they will, I will update this review to show progress.UPDATE 10/25/18:I have included pictures #3 and #4 of my mushrooms at 15 days - 5 days after the first to photos. In 5 days, the mushrooms have more than quadrupled in size, and more "globs" are growing out of the slits I cut in the bag. They are also starting to look more spongy, and the development of the "finger" characteristic of the Lion's Mane mushrooms are starting to develop.UPDATE 10/28/18:As a new grower of mushrooms, I did research to find out more about growing Lion's Mane mushrooms. I had been waiting for the long finger to form before I harvested them, but found out that they start to turn yellow or brownish when they are mature. With more research, I found that they don't always have the long fingers when mature, so I decided to harvest my mushrooms. The fifth picture shows my mushrooms after harvest, but the picture is missing one that I decided to saute before I took the picture. The video shows what the mushrooms looked like before the harvest and how I harvested them. I harvested almost a pound of the Lion's Mane mushrooms from this harvest. I chose the smallest one to slice and saute with butter and minced fresh garlic. I used about 2 tablespoons of butter and cooked the minced garlic for a couple of minutes before adding the sliced mushrooms. I sauteed them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they were lightly browned. They were wonderful!! To me and my husband, they tasted more like scallops that I make with garlic and butter than lobster. When they are sauteed in butter, you should be careful not to use too much butter as they absorb all of the butter used. Too much butter would make them taste too greasy. What I harvested tonight could easily be the main course for at least two meals for 3 of us. I also found out that these mushrooms can be stored for up to 7 days in the refrigerator in a brown paper bag. Storing them in a plastic bag could make them mushy because of the high water content in mushrooms. I have set my mushroom kit up for a second flush, and will update this review with the results.UPDATE 11/19/18:The second flush grew out of only one hole in the bag. This flush produced only 3.15 oz. of mushrooms. The 6th picture shows this harvest. I am going to try for a 3rd flush, but this time will keep the mushrooms in in the basement that is cooler than in the house. I am in Illinois and we have the heat on at this time of year. Although we keep the thermostat at 68 degrees, the house temperature is still at 72 degrees.. From my research, I have found that mushrooms do better in cooler temperatures and the basement maintains 64 degrees. I will update this review as I learn more.UPDATE 01/03/19:By the time I was ready to try my luck for a 3rd flush, winter weather was upon us and the heat went on. This dramatically dried the air in the house to 37%RH, and there was no way I could mist the inside of the bag enough to provide enough humidity for the mushrooms to grow. After a month of futile misting and watching the block shrink as it dried, I decided to buy a small greenhouse for the basement that would allow me to maintain high humidity and cooler temperatures that mushrooms thrive on. By the time I got the greenhouse set up and regulated, my Lion's Mane block had lost more than half its weight and was pretty well dried up. If the mycelium was all dead, I decided that I make it any deader by trying an experiment to revive it. I took the block out of the bag and submerged it in water for 5 days. After 5 days, I wrapped the block in multiple layers of paper towels for 4 days, and then put it lengthwise into a clean medium sized grow bag that I had. I folded the top of the bag so that it was under the block and cut a couple of 2-3 inch slits in each side of the bag that were about 2 1/2 to 3 inched up from the bottom of the block. I put the block into the greenhouse that maintains a humidity of 87% to 99% and a temperature of 68 to 70 degrees, and crossed my fingers. After about two weeks, I started seeing new spider-like growth inside the grow bag. Since then, I can see new growth daily. At this point, the mushrooms growth has not yet found its way to the slits in the bag, but it is getting closer by the day. I have been so excited that I was able to bring a supposedly dead block back to life. It's like a new take on the movie Field of Dreams - "Give them what they need and they will come!"UPDATE 01/15/19:The 7th picture shows my harvest of Lion's Mane mushrooms 12 days after I soaked what I thought was a dead log and put it in my small greenhouse. This was the 3rd flush from this log yielding almost 10 ounces of yummy mushroom. After cutting off this harvest, I put it back in the greenhouse to see if I can get a 4th flush. In the greenhouse I have the log under LED grow lights and it seems to be happier with more lighting. After a week or so, I wasn't seeing any more growth, so I decided to soak it as I had done before, and try again. I would also like to mention that I let the 3rd flush grow for a longer time and the little spiky finger were more grown out. It's possible that I didn't let the first two flushes grow for long enough. I have sliced and sauteed each of the harvests and have found that it better to lightly butter the pan to let the mushroom slices brown on each side and then add a little more butter for flavor. If too much butter is added initially, the mushrooms will absorb all of it and taste greasy.UPDATE 02/12/19:I was so happy with the mushrooms from the first block, I decided to buy a 2nd on in addition to one for Pink Oysters. It took almost 3 weeks for the blocks to get here, and they arrived during one of the worst cold spells in our history. Since I was concerned about the cold, I contacted the seller who assured me they would replace the blocks if they did not recover. I placed both in a warm area with subdued lighting, and both recovered and showed evidence of growth. I made the slit in the new Lion's Mane block, put it in my greenhouse, and within a week or so there was new growth out of the slit I cut. At this point, it looks like this may be the largest of the harvests I had with the first block. Although I am sure that reading so many updates can be boring or tedious, I am hoping that my experience will be helpful to other growing this wonderful mushroom. I was extremely impressed with the support offer by Detroit Mushrooms, and have been totally happy with the mushroom production of these kits. I would highly recommend these kits if you are interested in growing Lion's Mane mushrooms. I would also like to add that the slices of these mushrooms could easily be used as a substitute for portabella mushrooms if you make stuffed mushrooms. The slices can be as large as portabellas.Update 04/07/19:At this point, I have bought 4 of these kits from this seller, and every one of them has produced 2 or more large flushes of these wonderful mushrooms. I have found the best way to get multiple large flushes is to:1) Get as much air out of the bag as possible by folding the top of the bag to the back of the block and forcing the air out of the vent. When all of the air is out, fold the top of the bag a couple of times and tape it down to the back of the bag. This prevents mushroom growth at the top of the bag.2) Cut 3 2-3 inch slits in what is now the front of the bag. Two are about 2 inches from the bottom of the bag and about 2 inches from the sides and the third slit is a couple inches above these two and in the middle of them. The 8th picture is the first flush on a bag that I cut this way, and it's still growing. I harvested almost 20 ounces of Lion's Mane from this flush.3) Once you have harvested the first flush, tape over the slits you cut, and fold the top of the bag over this side.4) Cut 3 slits on the opposite side as you did for the first side. Your second flush should be as large as the first.After you harvest the second flush, repeat the process for steps 3 and 4, and you should get another flush. The only difference is that you would pull off the tape on the slits you made for the first flush and wouldn't have to cut them again.I believe knowing what to expect as a new grower would have been extremely helpful for me, So, I truly hope this review is helpful for you in growing these mushrooms..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great kit- grows nice lion's mane mushrooms for first flush, but haven't got very hairy ones yet
*by C***R on October 14, 2022*

Works well for growing Lion's mane + super easy to grow (just cut a slice in, wait a week or so for decent growth, a couple weeks until it starts to yellow).Shipping can take a couple weeks, so order before you need it. Have gotten multiple flushes from it, but the first one is the easiest + largest.Haven't gotten any super long hairs/ beard from it - they stop at about 1/4" max for me, but might have to get the oxygen/ humidity ratio right (been mainly growing them on the counter near the sink).Definitely a top notch lion's mane kit!Just difficult to find through Amazon search lately- could only find from my old orders, and not by any useful search terms.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ looking forward to trying these again
*by D***L on November 10, 2020*

The media could not be loaded. 1st off, the directions given on the bag were hard to read and inconsistent with what you will find in the item description at the top of this page. following that, i believe it was because there was a hole in the bag that the lion's mane started to fruit inside the bag, on the top. still, i followed the directions as best i could and it wasn't long before i got about 5 ounces of mushrooms outside of the grow bag/inside the humidifier bag. the mushrooms were smooth, not a "mane", and they tasted just like ordinary mushrooms. when i sliced them and fried them in butter, they still tasted like ordinary fried mushrooms.so i decided to put the spawn in a fruiting chamber to try for a second flush, and when i opened the bag i cut off the mushrooms that were growing inside, which as you can see had more of the "mane" characteristics. and i fried 'em up in butter. they were delicious. that was about .7 ounces in weight.after a month or so i had nearly another 2 ounces from the broken up pieces in the fruiting chamber, and again they both had the "mane-like" characteristics and were delicious.i'm leaving a few of the pinning pieces in the chamber altho i don't have a lot of hope since they are relatively small and drying out despite misting them, and the rest i broke up into a 5-gallon bucket with 5 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of salt and after two days i put that slurry in and on a dying tree in my back yard and in the ground and on the wood of a raised flower bed. i hope something comes from it.
