- Tie the bottom end of the plastic bag to make it round.
- Now put the straw in the bag and fill it and press lightly
- Then must sprinkle mushrooms spawn in the corner.
- Again put four handfuls of straw.
- Now repeat this step till the bag is almost done and complete.
- Set it very well and press lightly.
- Now close the bag with a rubber band or tape, and also you can use a piece of cloth to tie.
- Make a few small holes in the bag.

Growing Shiitake Mushrooms
You can grow shiitake mushrooms in some ways. You can also grow it with the same procedure of Oyster mushrooms as I mentioned before. As part of the kit, you will supply wooden dowels which have been fertilized with shiitake mycelium. These wooden mandrels are then inserted into a hardwood log prepared by drilling holes up to 6- inches intervals along the length of the branch. Once the mandrel has been inserted, they seal to ensure that the mandrel spawn doesn’t dry out.
There is another way to grow mushrooms with coffee grounds. This is an exciting way to grow mushrooms in this method, special thanks to coffee full of nutrients. Coffee grounds are a fantastic medium for Mushrooms.
- For1000g of mushroom spawn, you need 5 kg of fresh coffee grounds. For this amount of coffee you should go to the café and ask nicely, they are usually happy than to give it away.
- Find a container for the mushroom: for this reason, a filter patch grow bag is best, but if it’s not available, don’t you worry, I am here to tell you what to do? Now you take a large sealable freezer bag. Also, you can use a carton and tub with four small holes on the sides.
- You know cleanness is essential, so you should wash your hands with soap. Then mingle the spawn into the coffee grounds and ensure that they evenly distribute. Now seal the container or plastic bag tightly.
- Now, put the container or bag in a warm and cozy atmosphere and dark location somewhere the temperature is (18 to 25 C) like under the bed and in the cupboard and leave it there for two to four weeks.
- After this period, you put the bag in a brighter area but not in sunlight. Now again, make holes in the container and spray twice a day because Mushrooms won’t grow in too-dry conditions.
