  • Bulk Vermiculite for Mushroom Cultivation Bulk Vermiculite for Mushroom Cultivation

    North Spore Bulk Vermiculite for Mushroom Cultivation

    Improve moisture and nutrient retention! This asbestos-free, odorless, horticulture-grade vermiculite provides superior moisture and nutrient retention when used as a substrate additive. It also allows for greater aeration, an essential component for larger flushes and faster colonization. A3 medium coarseness is ideal for mushroom cultivation, as it has greater water retention capacity and can be used for external casings. Ideal for use in cake-style, manure-based, and straw-based mushroom cultivation methods. A thin layer can be added to the base of a fruiting chamber to increase ambient humidity. OMRI Certified - product can be used in certified organic operations under the USDA National Organic Program. ⚠ CAUTION: Avoid creating dust. Breathing dust may be harmful to your health.

  • Sale -17% 4-pack 'ShroomTek' + Spore Boostr All-in-One Mushroom Grow Bag 4-pack 'ShroomTek' + Spore Boostr All-in-One Mushroom Grow Bag

    North Spore 4-pack 'ShroomTek' + Spore Boostr All-in-One Mushroom Grow Bag

    Grow dung-loving mushrooms right in the bag! Our beginner-friendly ShroomTek All-In-One Mushroom Grow Bag + Spore Boostr was formulated by mycologists to simplify mushroom growing while maximizing the speed and size of your grow. (All that's required is a spore syringe or liquid culture!) The entire grow takes place inside the bag – from inoculation to colonization to flush – making the entire process both seamless and effortless. Speed up your grow with Spore Boostr! Each ShroomTek includes Spore Boostr (5 ml), a nutrient-rich broth that turns slow-growing spores into fast-growing liquid culture. Simply inject your spores into Spore Booster before inoculating your ShroomTek bag and allow them to germinate. After 1-2 weeks, when you see visible mycelium, it’s time to inject! As easy as inject, grow, harvest ShroomTek contains a proprietary blend of sterilized, nutrient-rich, organic manure-based compost, organic grain, coco coir, and several quality substrate supplements (although we keep the exact blend a secret!) Each bag is optimally hydrated for substrate mix and volume to ensure a healthy, well-hydrated environment for optimal mycelial growth. Bags also include a self-healing injection port for use with a spore or culture syringe plus a 5 micron filter patch to block airborne contaminants while providing even gas exchange. Once inoculated, you can expect your first flush within 30-60 days (depending on species and strain.) Note: Color of injection port may vary. ⮕ The complete Shroomtek method Sterile and ready to use Bags are sterilized in a commercial-grade steam autoclave, and sterility is verified using biological indicators and temperature sensors. (Condensation around the injection port may occur, and will not negatively impact the product or its performance.) Inoculation ratio We recommend using 2.5-5ccs of your favorite spore syringe or liquid culture syringe. (Higher inoculation rates may improve colonization times and mitigate contamination.) More ways to grow Although the ShroomTek All-In-One Mushroom Grow Bag is designed as a self-contained growing chamber, it can be used in conjunction with other growing chambers such as a monotub or BoomRoom martha tent, should you want fuller control over environmental conditions. ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Spore syringe vs. liquid culture syringe Shroomtek works with both spore syringes and liquid culture syringes. However, spore syringe users will not see growth for an additional 1-3 weeks during the germination process without the use of Spore Boostr. This is because liquid culture syringes contain live mycelium whereas spore syringes contain fungal spores that need to become mycelium. ⚠️ IMPORTANT: If you choose to use spore syringe without Spore Boostr DO NOT shake the bag immediately after inoculation. Doing this may prevent the fungal spores from germinating.

    North Spore 8-Pack CVG (Coco Vermiculite Gypsum) Sterile Bulk Substrate

    Our ready-to-use CVG blend starts with our own RHP-certified MycoCoco as the base (the first coco coir researched and selected specifically for its mushroom cultivation qualities). We then add asbestos-free, horticulture-grade, US-sourced vermiculite and complete the trifecta with OMRI-approved gypsum. These components have a low bacterial load and low nitrogen levels making them less prone to contamination and ideal for beginner growers. The result is a perfect balanced substrate for mushroom spawn to prosper and fruit. Moisture content: Each bag is optimally hydrated for fast colonization times and top yields. Spawn to bulk ratio: We recommended mixing 1 colonized grain spawn bag with 2-4 bags of CVG. (Higher inoculation rates may improve your success.)
