Over priced for the high risk of failure...

The Misses - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
Not very good results for us. I believe it’s because we heat our home with a wood stove and it was just too dry. Once I realized the issue I put the humidifier by it but it was no help. The mushrooms that did grow large enough to eat were very woody and difficult to chew. Great concept but I feel it’s over priced for the risk factor.

This was so incredibly easy and we got a ton of growth in just a few days. I don’t even eat mushrooms! Lol. I’ll have to gift these to family members. I just wanted a fun activity and this was very rewarding.

Scrape Lightly During Prep

Samgersh - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
Growing is pretty easy. But be careful to scrape surface LIGHTLY (so you will have more mushrooms). I scraped too vigorously during prep phase. Patience is key too!

Mushrooms had already been growing by the time we opened the box. The bag somehow colonized in a dry cabinet. It would be a lot better to colonize brown rice and make a coco-coir substrate yourself. Oyster spores are cheap and easy to find online.

Hi Meg! We understand your concern and are here to help. Premature growth is not uncommon, and as long as the kit itself is still healthy, you can grow normally. Please reach out to contact@backtotheroots.com with photos, we are happy to have a look and we can help with a replacement as needed.

The inside package was broken. The mushroom has grown before we opened the box
1 reply from Back to the Roots, Inc. team - 2 years ago
Hi Sasa! We understand your concern. Some premature growth can happen, it happens when a mushroom is anxious to begin growing and starts right there in the box. Please reach out to contact@backtotheroots.com with photos of your kit, and our amazing customer support team will be happy to assist you!

MaryJune - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
We carefully tended our growing mushrooms, but when they did eventually show signs of life, they began shrinking almost immediately. We ended up with lots of little mushrooms and maybe five larger ones - all tough and virtually inedible. I expected more from the product, especially considering all the trouble I had redeeming this company's Target-only coupon deal.
1 reply from Back to the Roots, Inc. team - 2 years ago
Hi MaryJane, I understand your concern and frustration. We guarantee one to two servings per each of two harvests. Please reach out to contact@backtotheroots.com and we can help you with a replacement kit to try again!

I followed directions, but my mushrooms did not grow large at all, and eventually the substrate started to mold. Fun idea, but not worth it.
1 reply from Back to the Roots, Inc. team - 3 years ago
Hey Kim! I understand your frustrations with mushrooms that didn't grow large. Mushroom growth is dependent on moisture and oxygen, so if you live in a very dry climate, your kit may need more water. Please reach out to contact@backtotheroots.com, and we can help you grow!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kit was so much fun for my family. We were able to follow the instructions and after seeing them grown i was even able to get my picky eater to try some of them in two different meals. The kit came with everything that you need and I was even able to use it a second harvest.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like how easy it was to get this started, and maintain it throughout it's growing cycle. Especially with my 13 year old daughter, whom was very excited to help me spray the mushrooms, and take pictures of them as they grew.
