Cylocybe Special MycDrop™ Grow Kit
Like our Cylocybe Special MycoBox Grow Kit but much faster.
If you’re new to mushroom cultivation and want a cost-effective, fast and straightforward solution, this kit is perfect for you.
Cylocybe Special MycDrop Grow Kit
Based on our highly successful Cylocybe Special MycoBox Grow Kit, the MycDrop Grow Kit is designed for rapid growth and simplicity. This versatile kit is capable of cultivating almost any mushroom species you inject into it, including shiitake and other gourmet varieties.
Why Choose This Kit?
It’s particularly well-suited for cooler environments, as it’s forgiving of lower temperatures and doesn’t require an incubator. For more experienced growers or those in warmer climates, consider our MonoBox Grow Kit.
If you like the simplicity of this kit but prefer a larger harvest and don’t mind waiting longer, check out our Cylocybe Special MycoBox Grow Kit.
