Day 4 of 30 Setup – Getting Started with What You Have 🔧
Sorry for the break
Day 4 is here — and it’s time to get hands-on! Today, we’re diving into the tools and setup you need to start growing your mushrooms. The best part? You don’t need fancy equipment or a science lab — just a few smart essentials.
Basic Tools for Mushroom Growin
Let’s keep it simple and beginner-friendly:
1. Containers or Bags
– Buckets, plastic tubs, or grow bags work great.
– Make sure they’re clean and can be poked with holes for airflow.
2. Spray Bottle
– For misting and keeping humidity high. Mushrooms love moisture! 💧
3. Thermometer (optional but helpful)
– Most mushrooms thrive around 20–24°C
– Helps you monitor your growing environment.
4. Gloves and Masks
– For cleanliness while handling substrate or spawn (especially during inoculation).
– Helps avoid contamination.
Setting Up Your Grow Space
You don’t need a farm. Try:
✅ A dark, humid corner of your kitchen or bathroom
✅ A closet or storage box with some ventilation
✅ Even a balcony if humidity is right (shade is key!)
🎯 Action for Today:
✅ Look around your home – which space can work as your mini mushroom lab?
✅ Gather containers, spray bottles, and other basic tools.
✅ Snap a pic of your DIY setup and tag #MyMushroomCorner
Tomorrow, we’re going to talk about spawn — the magic seed that kickstarts the whole process. Get excited!
