When it comes to psilocybin mushroom cultivation, there are few things more useful than a good old-fashioned grow bag. These autoclavable bags are a great way to cultivate your favorite mushrooms in a self-contained growing environment without the need for bulky plastic containers and a separate chamber such as a monotub or a BoomRoom martha tent.
Grow bags are made from a heavy-duty 3ml polypropylene and feature a 0.5 micron filter that allows for ample air exchange. They are clear enough to monitor the growth of your spawn but still keep out contaminants like bacteria and other unwanted fungi. They are designed to withstand high temperatures and can be sealed with an impulse sealer or with a simple zip tie once inoculated.
Once the spores have colonized the grain layer, they will quickly move to the coco coir substrate that is located on top of the bag. To inoculate the bag, simply use a sterilized syringe to inject a small amount of spores or liquid culture into the injection port located on the grain layer.
After inoculation, the spores or liquid culture should be left to incubate for up to a week. After that time, the bag can be moved to a fruiting block or other container for mushroom production. The ShroomTek All-In-One Mushroom Grow Bag is the perfect option for individuals new to home mushroom cultivation. It is fully-sterile and includes a layer of sterile grain for mycelium growth and a layer of sterile coco coir substrate ideal for fruiting. Psilocybin grow bags
