Years of planning and testing

has resulted in the next generation of B+ Magic Mushroom grow kits. The Grow

Kit B+ has become better than it ever was. Compared to the first generation of

Psilocybe cubensis B+ Grow Kit, the next generation is improved with:

§ Larger yields, more

mushrooms

§ More flushes*

§ Better resistance

against contaminations

§ Different, but easier

instructions

*some strains produce more

flushes than others. The first three flushes are the largest.

Meet the new standard of easy grow kits

The Psilocybe cubensis B+ Magic

Mushroom grow kit is slightly different than the grow kits you might have used

before. This is seen only in the substrate recipe and is a secret not just

shared with everyone. Not even with us!

Just like the previous and

other easy grow kits, you do not need to use additional spores. During the

laboratory process, the spores have developed into mycelium inside the

substrate (the cake) in the grow box. The mycelium has fully colonized the

substrate and is ready to grow mushrooms.

How to store the grow kit correctly

It is recommended to start the

cultivation process right away. If you decide to start growing later, you may

store the grow kit in the refrigerator (2°C to 8°C) for 2 weeks. First, wrap

the grow kit in a plastic shopping bag and close it well.

Contents

§ 1x grow box – This

contains substrate with active mycelium (the cake)

§ 1x grow bag – The bag

has a micron filter to keep contaminants out

§ 1x reusable yellow seal

– For closing the grow bag.

You need

§ Misting Bottle – Misting

is needed for the humidity level

§ Potable water – For

misting and soaking

§ Clean environment – Work

clean to give other fungi and bacteria (micro organisms) no chance to

contaminate.

We recommend using

§ Sterile Latex Gloves |

Pair

§ Face Mask

§ Disinfectant Hand

Sanitizer | Softa-Man Handgel

§ Surface Disinfectant

Spray

§ Soaking Bag

§ Digital Hygrometer &

Thermometer with external sensor

§ Thermo Heatingmat (when

room temperature drops below 18°C)

How to prepare the room and yourself before you begin

§ Close any open windows.

Wind or draft may bring microorganisms that can contaminate the Psilocybe

cubensis 'B+' Magic Mushroom grow kit.

§ When taking out the grow

box with the cake from the carton box, put it on a disinfected surface. If this

surface would not be clean, microorganisms may attach to the grow box and will

flourish inside the Psilocybe cubensis 'B+' Magic Mushroom grow kit and will

contaminate the grow box.

§ Make sure you work with

clean hands and arms. We recommend using surgical gloves or a good disinfectant

when handling the kit. You should use a facemask to avoid breathing into the

grow bag and on the cake.

Starting the process

1. Fill the box with fresh, potable water. Close the

grow box well and let it soak for 12 hours.

2. After 12 hours, pour the surplus of water out of

the grow box.

3. Place the grow box inside the grow bag. The open

end of the bag should point upwards.

4. Remove the lid from the grow box. Rinse the lid

and store it in the carton box.

5. Fold the open end of grow bag twice; do not cover

the micron filter.

6. Place the reusable yellow seal on the fold, so the

bag stays closed. Now the Psilocybe cubensis 'B+' Magic Mushroom grow kit is

ready to grow.

7. Place the Psilocybe cubensis 'B+' Magic Mushroom

grow kit inside the carton box, on top of the ziploc with lid.

Temperature

The ideal temperature is 24°C.

Do not have the temperature drop under 18°C and not exceed 29°C. To keep the

temperature from dropping under the 18°C, you can use a Thermo Heatingmat to

maintain the ideal temperature. A thermo mat is a must-have in the winter or

colder regions of the world.

Light

The Psilocybe cubensis B+ Magic

Mushroom Grow Kit only needs light for the mycelium to ‘understand’ it has

reached the surface. Only then, mushrooms will grow. A few hours of

fluorescent/artificial light or indirect sunlight a day is more than enough.

Direct sunlight kills the mycelium, so avoid the sun to shine directly on the

grow kit.

Water / Misting

The day after you start the

process you begin with misting. Open the grow bag by removing the reusable

yellow seal. Do not spray directly on the cake but spray one time against every

side of the bag. So you mist once a day, four sprays. Misting also vents fresh

oxygen inside the bag. Right after misting, close the bag again with the

reusable yellow seal.

Mushrooms

If the conditions are optimal,

you can expect the first small mushrooms (the pins) to appear between 5 and 16

days. This also depends on the strain. Some cubensis strains grow slower than

others.

Flushes

The mushrooms come up in

groups. This can be a small or large group. That depends on the strain. A

growth like this is called a flush. Mushrooms are almost never ripe at the same

time. You can get more than one flush out of a kit. The first two flushes are

the largest. When more flushes come, they will be smaller than the previous one.

Picking

Mushrooms are ripe and should

be picked when the veil between the hat and the stem has just torn. Don’t wait

much longer. Use surgical gloves or disinfect your hands, wrists and arms. Pick

the mushrooms that are ripe and let the others continue to grow. Remove the

mushrooms from the cake by taking hold of the base of the mushroom between

thumb and index finger. Rotating your hand clockwise slowly, until the mushroom

lets go. Do not pull out the mushrooms. This would risk damaging the mycelium

and killing it. When most of the larger mushrooms have been picked, also pick

the smaller ones and the pins as well.

Mushrooms that grow from the sides

Mushrooms grow where the light

reaches and where there is little penetrating resistance. Because the cake has

light shining on the sides, the mushrooms might also grow there. It is hard to

counter this and can be allowed. Some growers wrap the sides of the grow box in

aluminum foil to keep the sides dark, but this doesn’t always work well.

When mushrooms grow there, they

can be picked just before you soak the kit:

Clean hands! Take the grow box

out of the bag and place it upside down on your other hand. Wiggle the plastic

box so that the cake will fall out, onto your hand. The plastic box can be

placed on a disinfectant surface. Now you have this hand free to pick the

mushrooms from the sides of the cake. When all mushrooms are picked, you can

place the cake back as it was, in the plastic box and continue to the soaking

process.

Soaking

After all the mushrooms have

been picked, you prepare the kit for the next flush. Again, with disinfected

hands or gloves; take the grow box out of the grow bag. Fill the box with

fresh, potable water. Take the lid out of the ziploc bag and use it to close

the grow box. Place the closed grow box in a soaking Bag or use your own clean

plastic shopping bag and wrap it around the box. Close it well and place this

in a refrigerator (2°C to 8°C) for 12 hours. This is called the soaking

process. Water will now soak through the cake, preparing it for the next flush.

During the soaking you can hang

the grow bag with micronfilter upside down to dry. Make sure to hang it upside

down, so no microorganisms will access the bag. Many growers prefer to use new

and unused grow bags after every flush.

After 12 hours take the soaking

Bag with the grow box, out from the fridge and unpack it.

Next Flush

To continue, follow the same

steps 3 – 7 as before when you started

the process for the first time.

Several days later, a new flush will appear. You can get at least 2 or 3

flushes out of a Psilocybe cubensis 'B+' Magic mushroom grow kit. If you are

experienced in cultivating, you can get more flushes out of a kit.

The end

When no more mushrooms grow out

of a grow kit after the second flush for at least three weeks, or when the

Psilocybe cubensis 'B+' Magic Mushroom grow kit turns green, red, grey or

yellow; the grow kit can be disposed of.  The change in color is a sign

that the grow kit is contaminated with another fungus or bacteria. No more

mushrooms will grow out of the Psilocybe cubensis 'B+' Magic mushroom grow kit

and the grow kit should be thrown away in the garbage outside.

Spores

When you are too late picking

the mushrooms, they will drop their spores. The cake and the mushrooms will

turn black/purple (some other cubensis strains red/brown) because of the

spores. This is not really a problem; it just doesn’t look very pretty. When

mushrooms release their spores, they also start to degrade, and the active

ingredients are breaking down. Mushrooms will lose some of their potency.
