How to Fruit Your Mega Mushrooms Kit Like a Pro

You just got your Mega Mushrooms Fruiting Kit—good call! You're about to witness real-life mushroom magic as they grow right before your eyes. Follow these super simple steps, and you’ll be harvesting fresh, gourmet mushrooms in no time.

Step 1: Find the Perfect Spot

Mushrooms love fresh air, humidity, and indirect light. Find a cozy spot—like your kitchen counter or a shelf away from direct sunlight. If your home is dry (hello, winter heaters), misting will be extra important.

Step 2: Peel and Reveal

Your kit has a “Peel Here” sticker—just remove it! This is where your mushrooms will grow, so think of it as opening the door to the magic show.

Step 3: Mist Like You Mean It

Mushrooms need moisture to grow, so grab a spray bottle and mist inside the opening 2-3 times a day. Keep the area damp but not dripping.

Step 4: Watch the Magic Happen

Within 5-10 days, tiny mushroom pins will start popping out. This is the most exciting part! They’ll grow shockingly fast, so keep misting and watch them transform daily.

Step 5: Harvest Time!

Once your mushrooms have curled edges and look full and meaty, they’re ready to harvest. Gently twist and pull them from the base. Harvest all at once to give your kit the best chance for a second flush.

Step 6: Go for Round Two (or Three!)

Your kit isn’t done yet! Keep misting, and another round of mushrooms may form in another 2-3 weeks. Repeat until it stops producing.

Step 7: Enjoy the Feast

You did it! Now, cook up your mushrooms—sauté them, grill them, or toss them into your favorite dish. Fresh mushrooms you grew yourself just taste better.

Final Pro Tip: If you run into issues (slow growth, drying out), just increase misting and check your environment. Mushrooms are adaptable—and so are you!
