Columbian Mini grow kit 600 cc by Freshmushrooms
This mini grow kit is the small version of the Freshmushrooms 100 percent mycelium kit. The box holds 600 cc and has been fully colonised with mycelium in the lab, with no fillers added. That is the point of the mini format: you try out a strain, or run several side by side, without committing to a large kit. By our own figures a 600 cc mini kit gives an average of 100 to 150 grams of fresh mushrooms across multiple flushes.
Columbian is a variety of Psilocybe cubensis that originally comes from the mountainous regions of Colombia. The fruiting bodies grow medium to large, with a thick, fleshy stem and a broad, rounded cap in light brown to yellowish-brown shades. The box contains the kit itself, the grow bag with micro perforation and a paperclip. Nothing else is required.
Setting up the kit
- Take the lid off, rinse it under the tap and keep it, because you will need it again later.
- Place the kit without its lid in the supplied bag, micro perforation facing up. Slide the opening of the bag underneath the bottom.
- Put the kit somewhere bright but out of direct sunlight, at a temperature between 18 and 28 degrees Celsius. Around 23 degrees works best.
- Once the mushrooms start pushing against the bag, stand the bag upright. Do not spray: the kit handles its own moisture. Leave the bag slightly open while they grow so that moisture can escape.
The first mushrooms usually appear after about a week, and they tend to reach full size within four to five weeks. Click here for the full manual.
Harvesting and the next flush
Harvest before the first spores drop, so just as the veils under the caps are about to tear open. After that you can restart the kit: fill it with clean tap water, put the lid back on and leave it for twelve hours. Pour the excess water out of one corner and start again from step 1. This can be repeated a few times, in practice around three to five flushes. Wash your hands before touching the kit and work in a clean room, because moulds and bacteria are the main reason a kit fails.
