Intro Mushroom Cultivation

Grow your first mushroom from a liquid culture, and learn the sterile technique everything else builds on. No electronics, no experience needed, just curiosity and clean hands.

Length 3 weeksFormat Hands-onKit Included
Curriculum (draft)

What you'll learn, week by week

Three weeks, one culture, start to finish: from fundamentals to your first harvest.

Before you start

No experience required

This is the entry point to everything else we teach. No prior cultivation or lab experience needed. Just show up: all materials and a starter kit are included in the course.
What you take home

Your first live culture

  • A started liquid culture

    Your own grow, inoculated by hand and ready to colonize at home.

  • A small starter toolkit

    Syringe, alcohol wipes, and the basics you'll reuse on every future grow.

  • A written protocol

    So you can do it again on your own, and know what to troubleshoot when it goes sideways.
