We specialize in tools and supplies for mushroom cultivation. We don't sell any spores or mushrooms.

22.5” x 15.5” x 12” (fully assembled, L x W x H)

Our bins are specifically designed for mushroom cultivation. The holes are strategically placed to allow for optimal control and manipulation of the environment inside. This means you will have ample airflow and humidity retention, giving you an ideal environment to grow your mushrooms of choice. 

We sell the best tools and supplies for mushroom cultivation. No mushroom kits or spores, genetics, soil, or substrates are currently available for purchase through our site.

When loading your bin, you'll want to fill your medium to just below the holes in the base. Seal off the bins air flow completely with painters tape, then after about two weeks, once the mycelium have colonized the substrate, you will switch to a microporous tape (or polyfill) and allow for FAE.

Once you load your bin and make the ‘lasagna’ you'll want to seal off all air flow until colonization is complete. Once colonization is complete you can switch to a microporous tape to help with the fruiting stage.

You want to tape the holes shut at the beginning stages to allow for colonization to occur. Once the mycelium have colonized your substrate, displaying a white-mat like bed, it is time to remove the tape and transition to a breathable filter to allow fresh air to enter your tub and begin the fruiting stage.

Many people still choose to use a liner when using our bins; however, our product is designed so that the condensation runoff will be caught in the rim of the base. Essentially the water will build up along the edge above your substrate rather than run down to the bottom and pool underneath.

You can grow just about any species as long as you use the right match of substrate to spawn. (I.e. wood based sub for oyster mushrooms.) It'd be best to contact your mushroom provider for specific details regarding your mushroom spawn.

The max yield bin can hold up to 30lbs of medium mix.

Each bin can hold up to 30lbs of mix. They are durable enough to be stacked on one another. We have tested 5 loaded with no issues, we have seen some customers go higher. However, we do not recommend stacking them. They were not designed this way. The best solution is to have proper shelving.

You can expect to yield 0.5-0.75 lbs of dried mushrooms per bin cycle
