Do you grow mushrooms from the comfort of your home? Great idea. Read how to prepare a fried in a month.
What you need
As our headline suggests, it is necessary to get a coffee grounds, which will be no problem for those who like coffee at home. To do this, you will need a bag of mycelia, or mycelium, which is a multicellular underground network consisting of fiber fibers (and some bacteria species). 10 milliliters can be purchased on the Internet for 200 crowns.

Starter package for beginners
For ignorant newcomers, the simplest solution is to buy a starter package that contains everything you need. It usually consists of sawdust of various trees, cereal nutrients, that mycelium in the syringe and the cultivation bags themselves.
Later, when you gain experience with growing your own mushrooms, you can use the individual ingredients to be delayed independently and cheaper, especially because sawdust and cereal nutrients are replaced by a lot and you are immediately saved by several hundred crowns. Plus you don’t spend anything for buying mushrooms.
Instructions for growing mushrooms from coffee grounds
Mix a small amount of coffee grounds with mycelium into a special bag that we described in the paragraph above and place it in a small bucket. Leave in a dark place for several days. After a white mass appears on the surface, you can repeatedly add more in three weeks, starting the fetal phase.
It is good for a bucket to find a cooler and wetter space. It will take about a week for the first oyster to start with small holes with a special tape and a few days later, the first round of the oyster should be ready for harvest.
Every batch of coffee grounds does not have to come to ruin at all, because it can produce mushrooms up to three times. It is about half a kilogram of mushrooms. It can therefore be used several times by replacing 80 percent of the current substrate and adding 20 percent of the new, chilled Loger to a new bag with prepared holes.
