Good evening MF Product blog readers, it’s blog time and today we
shall be talking about mushrooms and MF Coffee can be used if you want to grow
mushrooms fast and organically. Just in case you didn’t know, mushrooms only
thrive in specific conditions and are notoriously difficult to grow, which is why
a detailed plan is needed to explain how to grow them correctly.
First things first, they do not grow in ordinary garden soil, this is because they require a substrate, or underlying substance or layer so that it can be used for energy and nutrition. A good substrate is required in order for the mushroom to grow and to fruit to its highest capabilities. Used MF Coffee grounds make a great substrate because they are packed full of nutrients that mushrooms like to grow on. What’s also particularly interesting is the fact that sterilisation doesn’t even need to occur as the brewing process of coffee has done that already.
Anyways, we’re now going to give you a step by step tutorial on how to grow mushrooms using MF Coffee grounds.
- Gather about 2.5 kg of grounds and dampen them using a spray bottle.
- Add a little over 500 grams of mushroom bacterium and sawdust mixture and blend well. (You can find this product at your local gardening store).
- Place said mixture into a filter patch grow bag, large freezer bag or bucket and fill until roughly around one-half to two-thirds is full.
- Cut four air holes, approximately 5 mm in size, into the sides of your container above the grounds. You may be using an open container, in that case, cover it with cellophane and poke with a few more small air holes.
- Gently spray the MF Coffee grounds with water once daily or as needed to keep them moist.
- Then, in two to four weeks when you start to see dense white areas with little budding mushrooms, move the container to an area with lighter and fresher air.
- When the mushrooms become plump and their caps turn upward, you can begin to harvest them.
