The quality of your spores plays a critical role in the success of your grow
kit. Make sure you are buying your spores from a reputable source, and that

DIRECTIONS
- STEP 1 –Pour some 70 % isopropyl alcohol on a clean paper towel. While wearing included gloves, wipe hands, work area, syringe and grain bags with alcohol. Attach the needle to the spore syringe. Open cover of syringe and heat the tip of the needle with a lighter until it turns red in color. Let the needle cool for a few seconds. Wipe the injection port and needle with included alcohol swab. Inject 1-2 ml of spore solution in each grain bag. Use alcohol swab to sterilize the needle between each grow bag.
- STEP 2 – After injecting place grow bags in a dark location with the temperature between 70-75◦ F.
- STEP 3 – In about 3 to 7 days (this may take longer depending on your spores and environment) you will start to see white mycelium growing in the bags. When your grow bag is about 30 % colonized gently break up the mycelium by squeezing the bag. Gently pull the sides apart to allow air into the bag. Once air is in the bag mix the colonized grain with the rest of the bag. Make sure to mix the grain throughout.
