Description

These mushroom grow bags are essential for coffee, straw, and growers using pasteurised substrates. 100’s of tiny perforations in the bag provide maximum air exchange without drying the substrate beneath. The plentiful supply of oxygen promotes rapid growth of the mycelium which can cut the spawn run time by up to 50% depending upon the mushroom species.

For Oyster Mushrooms, directly after filling 5 cm diameter cross slits should be made in the bags as follows:

50 cm bag: 3 slits evenly spaced round the circumference and postioned low to high
1m bags: 6 slits evenly spaced round the circumference and postioned low to high
