However, I bought two, got them home on Monday, put them in a small west facing window, pulled their plastic socks all the way up, and gave them a misting from a water bottle whenever I passed by - all per the clear instructions. They went nuts! By Sat I was forced into a big mushroom omelette because otherwise I worried it would go to waste - I had a huge omelette but only used half the crop, so I guess another omelette is in my near future. What else can you do with an excess of mushrooms?I'm interested in trying my hand at mushroom cultivation from scratch, so today I started by making a "shotgun fruiting chamber", which I've now put these two guys inside. Basically a (very) simply prepared plastic container to maintain humidity - Google has details. We'll see how they like the place. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lots of Mushrooms! *by H***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2017* I bought this as a present for my mum (she's an avid gardener) and she thought it was great! The first crop produced a lot of large mushrooms quite quickly, and as time went on, the crops became smaller and eventually stopped all together a few months later. Although the amount of mushrooms did decrease, i think this is reasonable given that it is tub, and there are only going to be so many mushrooms you're going to get!I would definitely buy again, possibly fr myself this time! ### ⭐ Not happy. *by R***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 February 2018* Review update:A bit pricey and arrived without its lid, which leads me to believe that could get contaminated in transit.Added to that I got three measly mushrooms from it and now it looks like it’s going to die. I am seriously disappointed at that price I could have bought enough chestnuts to choke a donkey.- substrate seems good and arrived in a timely manner.- didn’t come with a misting bottle at that price it would have been a nice touch.- it is definitely alive, it already arrived fruiting.- growth is already beautiful to watch hence but has since all died for some strange reason.- I suggest creating a mini terrarium out of the plastic bag with paper clips. This is unnecessary but it just protects the fruit from dehydration and potential mould attack.I would like a full refund. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/66238510-merryhill-mushrooms-ready-growing-grow-your-own-fresh-chestnut-mushroom](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/66238510-merryhill-mushrooms-ready-growing-grow-your-own-fresh-chestnut-mushroom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
