Back to the Roots Organic Shiitake Mushroom Kit; Great Gift; Easy for Beginners, For Indoor Growing (Start Growing Right Away)

Not bad

I ordered the shiitake log and the oyster box for my dad for Father’s Day. He’s an older guy, retired, loves to garden and expressed interest in growing his own mushrooms. Despite him having no experience in growing them previously and being older and not one to reach for google for questions/answers should they arise, it seemed easy enough to start.To my delight- the process seemed extremely easy for him and both products were fruitful within days. The directions were simple enough to understand yet in depth as far as any questions one might have.He was so excited about this process he wanted to learn more and ended up calling the number on the back.He spoke with Andrea and not only was he so thrilled to be talking with a real person, she went above and beyond talking with him about all the details, tips and tricks, what if’s, and other ins and outs. They spoke for over an hour, my mom was able to send her pictures, and she ultimately showed him a kindness and level of patience that is rarely found in this world.Her knowledge, kindness, patience, and overall customer support impressed him and myself so much, that his excitement for these products and the process after this conversation was only inflated more.We will absolutely be ordering more in the future. Their products work just as they say, they are a small business that backs their products, and ultimately the people behind the company are wholesome and kind. No better option out there in my opinion.A huge thank you to the gal who took the time to support and grow my dad’s interest in his new hobby.

I absolutely LOVED every minute of growing these mushrooms! It was so fun to watch it go from an empty log to full grown shiitake mushrooms! There is a 100% growth guarantee and they never disappoint. It is a little more expensive in comparison to the mini grow kit but I was able to harvest about 12 shiitake mushrooms. It is so easy to grow! Just mist twice a day after soaking and you’ll have mushrooms in a little over a week!

I am the grinch and did purchase this product. At first I had a problem and the Shiitake did not grow right, then I contacted the seller and asked for help. The seller was very understanding and sent me an all new Shiitake grow kit. This grow kit is wonderful, the shiitake are growing fast and wonderful. Thank you thank you.They did not have to replace the product but without me asking they relaced the Shiitake and the product is outstanding. If you want to have a great product and see it grow fast that is healthy. I highly recommend this product.After replacing the product, the product did grow right for couple of days then everything died and I lost everything.I would not purchase from this company again but I am a beginner, if you are an expert it may be ok.Aug 3, 2023 update, I just went to Food City and found Shiitake mushroom there cheap in a package. So, Unless you just want the experience of growing this mushroom. I would state you could purchase this product easier from Food City.The Grinch

I bought this as a gift for someone who was interested in trying to grow mushrooms. The product looked nice as a gift, and everything needed was already set up. They had great success with repeat harvests. It was a great first kit for a beginner.
