My Chestnut / White Kit is only growing one mushroom?
Why is my kit only growing one mushroom?
In ideal conditions, keeping the kit within 14-21'c and ideally 17-18'c the predicted window for a kit to come into crop is 16-24 days, in some cases you can get a pre crop prior to this. Which can be the case when dealing with a living product, which by nature each kit is unique so will not always behave in ways set it stone across the board.
If you get a lone mushroom, or pre crop, it is best and important that when it is ready to pick this for the next crop to come up through. Whilst these are growing, you will not get the next crop coming up through, so these should be picked and within another week or two, the full crop should come up through.

Remove the "pre crop" by twisting and pulling out the whole root along with the mushroom. Do not leave the root in as this will also stop future crops coming up through. Proceed to give the kit another week or two for more to come up through. |
