Cylocybe Special MycoPots² Grow Kit

Since its initial launch in January 2019, this kit has been a top-selling option for those new to mushroom cultivation. The comprehensive online guide provides step-by-step instructions, ensuring even first-time growers can achieve success. Please note that a 2ml gourmet mushroom spore or liquid culture syringe is required, as it is not included with the kit.

Why Choose This Kit?

Ideal for novice cultivators, this ‘all-in-one’ kit is cost-effective, efficient, and well-suited for cooler environments. Its forgiving nature in lower temperatures makes it a practical choice for those without access to an incubator. For more experienced growers or those in warmer climates, we recommend our MonoBox Grow Kit.

If you appreciate the simplicity of this kit but desire a larger harvest and are willing to wait longer, consider our Cylocybe Special MycoBox Grow Kit.

Key Features

• Twice as fast as our MycoBox Grow Kit
• Versatile substrate compatible with almost any mushroom species
• Ability to grow two different species simultaneously, one in each MycoPot
• Perfect for beginners seeking a straightforward and reliable introduction to mushroom cultivation
• Features our signature Inject-thru™ system for easy and hygienic inoculation
• Simpler process compared to our MonoBox Grow Kit
• Medium-sized yield, ideal for personal use or sharing with friends

Considerations

• Smaller overall harvest potential compared to larger kits
• May be too simplistic for those seeking a more hands-on learning experience – our MonoBox Grow Kit is better suited for advanced cultivation techniques

Enhanced or Regular Version

The Enhanced version includes 1500mL of Perlite to maintain optimal humidity levels for mushroom growth. It also replaces the two small grow tents with a single, larger tent to accommodate both cakes. If you prefer a more compact setup and are comfortable misting the cakes several times a day, the regular version will suffice.
