*Yield depends upon mushroom variety, the substrate used, and fruiting conditions

You haven’t said any thing about how much mushroom can be grown with the material provided with the kit…how many time can I harvest the mushroom
nuvedo –
The yield depends on multiple factors including the choice of substrate, growing conditions and species/variety that you’re growing. To give you a simple analogy, when purchasing a fruit tree sapling it is very difficult to promise how many fruits the tree will give once matured since it depends on – the care provided, soil quality, rainfall, pesticides/fertilizers used etc.
Having said that, the DIY Kit can accommodate 1 Kg of dry straw which can, under 23-24 degrees and >80% Rh, give a yield up to 1.5 Kg (assuming 150% biological efficiency for Hypsizygus ulmarius). Hope this is able to answer your question!

After purchasing the above diy kit and following the instructions as per the manual provided, to my surprise the mushroom pin heads started forming in less than 3 week. The quality of the kit esp the spawn and bucket is very good. The kit is definitely worth a buy.

I attended the workshop about a month ago and got the oyster bucket kit. I’m a complete newbie to mushroom farming and the workshop helped cover all the basics and to do’s for starting your own mushroom cultivation. I saw the growth of the oyster mushrooms in less than 3 weeks!
Overall i had a great experience, the instructions are concise and they are always available to help troubleshoot any of the problems or questions you may have along the way.
I would recommend if you cover more of the harvest and post harvest procedures as well on your social media to get a complete picture.

In the Video above, you placed two cut micropore tapes on each hole.
What is the next step?
Would the mushrooms pop out automatically disrupting the micropores
or
is it a self identification process that the mushrooms are starting to grow and lets remove the micropores ?
Second question :
How and when to water the mushrooms ?
nuvedo (verified owner) –
Thanks for writing in Aryan.
After bucket has been prepared the next step is to inoculate the pasteurized straw with mushroom spawn.
After inoculation you need to leave the bucket undisturbed for 3-4 weeks till the mycelium can colonize all of your substrate. Post this, more often than not, the mushrooms will push the micropore tapes and make their way out. If you see that the straw has been completely colonized but no mushrooms are growing, you can proceed to remove the tape and proceed to fruiting.
Spray the mushrooms 2-3 times a day. Avoid spraying on the mushrooms directly and spray on the bucket. The idea is to create a humid microclimate for the mushrooms to grow.
Hope this helps. Have a great mushroom growing experience!

Started with the basic pink oyster DIY kit. I set it up in an hour and forgot about it for 3 weeks and lo and behold! The most beautiful thing I’ve seen growing in my own house. It looked so good my folks asked if we should pluck and eat in the first place.
So I ended up ordering so muuuuch more that my folks asked me to stop feeding so many mushrooms. The entirely experience of cooking one’s own mushrooms is very gratifying. Amazing work done by the team at nuvedo!
Prompt responses for every doubt I throw at them. Thank you guys! Hope many many more people get to try your products.
