ORIGINALLY $199.99. Sold as is-no returns or exchanges on clearance roducts.

Our beginner-friendly Boomr Bag Monotub Mushroom Grow Kit makes mushroom growing easy. Created by mycologists, this starter kit is equipped with everything you need to grow dung-loving species at home. (All that’s required is a spore syringe or liquid culture!) The monotub is designed with airflow and humidity controls and requires no high-tech additions. And the manure-based sterile substrates, injection port bag, and coco coir provide mediums for colonization, incubation, and growth.

We’ve also included self-adhesive filters and black micropore tape that fit over holes on the monotub lid and base. These are designed to keep out foreign spores and other contaminants while maintaining proper humidity, airflow, and gas exchange.

Spawn to bulk ratio:

We recommended mixing 1 colonized grain spawn bag with 2-3 Boomr Bags. (Higher inoculation rates may improve your success.)

Each kit includes:

(1) Max Yield Bins monotub
(3) Boomr Bag Sterile Manure-Based Substrate (5 lbs each)
(1) Organic Sterilized Grain Bag with Injection Port (3 lbs)
(2) Sheets of 2” self-adhesive filters (12 pack)
(1) Roll of 1/2″ black micropore tape (10 yards)
(1) Coco Coir (5 lbs)
IMPORTANT: Coco coir should only be added once monotub is fully colonized and pins begin to form. Only a thin layer of coco coir (approx. 1/2 inch) is necessary.

FAQs
Why is the difference between the large and small holes on the monotub?

Both the large and small holes are for gas exchange. However, given the proximity of the small holes to the substrate, many growers will remove the micropore tape during fruiting to increase oxygen — especially if the mushroom caps are too small and/or the stems are too thin and stringy. That said, if the mushrooms are growing just fine, many will just leave the micropore tape on (as it protects against contamination.)

Do I need to use micropore tape on the small holes, or can I just leave them open?

During colonization, you don’t want the small holes open. Covering them with the black micropore tape keeps out contaminants and maintains a higher CO2 level.
