Brief instructions (full instructions on our 'How to Guides' page)

- Inoculate this sterile grain with your favourite top fruiting mushroom strain. - Allow grain to fully colonise. - Clean your monotub, tools and all 3 bags inside and out. - Fill monotub with the 2.5kg bag of bulk substrate (the large bag). - Break up and thoroughly mix in the grain spawn. - Cover with the casing layer. - Allow to colonise. - Fruit mushrooms.

Wear surgical gloves and a mask, clean gloved hands in 70% Isopropyl alcohol. Use an alcohol wipe to sanitise your injection port for 30 seconds. Now flame sterilise your needle red hot and then use a wipe to cool the needle. Alternatively, dispense a small quantity of culture or spore solution into something nearby, this will also cool your needle enough to inject the bag. Inject 3-5ml into the grain (depending os size of grain bag) Gently agitate the grain being very careful not to tear the bag… Even better, use a homemade glove box to carry out the above procedure. Make one easily from a clear plastic tote/storage box, cut out 2 hand holes, spray down inside and out with diluted bleach (5%bleach : 95%water) or 70% isopropyl alcohol.
