Step 1

Wash your hands thoroughly and clean the outside of the growkit with a dry cloth. Remove the lid and save it for step 2.

Step 2

Fill the growkit to the brim with lukewarm water (20C°), place the lid back on the growkit and soak for 5 minutes.
Important: never soak the growkit for more than 1 hour.

Step 3

Remove the lid from the growkit and drain the water well. Let the growkit drain for 10 seconds.

Step 4

Place the growkit in the growbag and fill it with a cup, 200 to 250ml, of lukewarm water (20°C). After this, fold the top of the bag and close it with the 2 paper clips.

Step 5

Place the growkit in a room between 20-25 degrees. Make sure that; the growkit is not in direct sunlight, is not under a lamp and is not near a heating/heat source. Important: the bag should remain closed until the pinheads are formed. At this stage, CO2 levels and humidity should be as high as possible.

Step 6

When the first pinheads* can be seen, you can air the grow bag once for a few minutes.
*Pinheads are the first visible formations of the mushrooms. It can take 10 to 20 days before the first pinheads are visible.

Step 7

The mushrooms can be harvested just before the membranes on the under cap start to loosen. While harvesting, gently grasp the stalk and twist it left/right. When the mushroom becomes loose, pull it out as completely as possible.
Important: the mushroom should be removed completely to make room for a new one.

Step 8

Congratulations, the harvest is complete. It is now possible to create a new harvest by going through steps 4 to 7 again.

Mushrooms don't just dry by themselves!

If you leave them lying around at room temperature, they will spoil. Make sure you have either a fruit dryer available, or get a heat mat.

Which strain of mushrooms you prefer is completely up to you.

There is absolutely no scientific proof that strains make any difference whatsoever!

Even the origin of most strains is a mystery, as well as what sets them apart.

Having said that, Golden Teacher mushrooms are somewhat iconic among shroom friends. Maybe it's just the name, but if you are totally new to mushrooms, GT is a great strain to weave into conversations... "Ah yes, I made a batch of golden Teacher microdoses the other day. Such a distinguished variety!"

1200ccm box yields about 400g fresh mushrooms (40g dry)

= 250-1000 microdoses!

The actual amount you harvest depends on factors like:

• How soon after reception you start your kit, the sooner the better!
• Temperature, humidity, CO2 levels
• environmental contamination
• quality of water you use for the reset

Not with this product, but it is pretty fool-proof nonetheless.

If you are really uncertain and want a guarantee, please select the product Mystery Mushroom and select the harvest guarantee.

Make sure to read how the guarantee works as well!

Drying mushrooms

Drying mushrooms requires some sort of heat and air exchange, they DO NOT dry by themselves!

A heat mat is the cheapest and least invasive option. It does not become too hot or make noise and dries mushrooms within 48 hours.

Fruit dryers will also do the job really well, but they are more expensive and have higher energy cost. They also make a lot of noise.

Drying in an oven is usually a bad idea. Even when selecting 50°C it usually gets hotter than that. Heat can diminish how strong the mushrooms are!

Sunshine will also dry mushrooms. But again, radiation might damage their potency and they become paper light when they dry, so they might get carried away by the wind.

Storage

You can store fresh mushrooms in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Left at room temperature, mushrooms tend to rot and become mushy and fluid. Would not recommend!

Once they are cracker dry (breaking like a twig when you bend them), they're perfect.

Store your mushrooms in a dry, dark, cool place, sealed airtight.

If you're using mason jars, adding some foodquality dessicant bags is a good idea! Or vacuum-seal them and put your dry shrooms in the freezer.

This can prolong their usual storage life of 6 months to up to 12 months.

NEVER underestimate magic mushrooms. They are not a weak psychedelic.

Mushrooms are safe when taken in a secure set and setting, because their lethal dose is far beyond what anyone could eat.

But you NEED to educate yourself on the right set and setting! Preparation goes a long way.

Safe, responsible and legal use of mushrooms is a beautiful thing, but it is YOUR responsibility to check those three boxes.
