It was pretty cool watching them grow so fast, but it didn't last long !!
GERALD C.
Received alot of mushrooms from our log. Was a fun experience seeing how fast they grew. Very good tasting mushroom. Going to see how the second crop goes.
Mark K.
I have grown shrooms before, but this log was great. So many. Just put it back in the fridge to get started on my second crop.
Lisa C.
This was on May 30th. I scan not believe how fast they grow??!! I am so excited to keep watching them produce! And I have to tell you that they are by far the BEST Mushrooms ever!!! I love sautéed mushrooms, so I was so happy to see that I could have my own right on hand! I have told everyone about them and none of them knew about this either and they can’t wait to buy theirs! Thank you for such a wonderful gift!!!
Colette P.
Bought them for my kids and their families. We are excited to see progress
Laura A.
Great experience
Great taste
My grandkids loved it
Max P.
Wonderful to what the shitakes grow. And they tasted terrific!
Erik K.
Super easy and tons of shrooms in just a few days. The log is in the fridge now to see about a second harvest.
Roger D.
Easy to do. A complete package. Working on my second crop now.

I love it unfortunately I had to go into the hospital. So it dried up. But ill try again

Well, my first experience was an extraordinary one! I ordered my grow kit and placed it in the refrigerator only to experience my refrigerator taking a kaput and everything inside of it spoiled. I took the Mushroom King Shiitake grow kit and placed it outside for safe keeping because we were experiencing some very cold nights here in northern New Jersey. I wasn't thinking there would be any problem. As I was carrying on with other business, I noticed that my kit box was looking rather full and took it inside with me after it being on the porch about a week maybe??? and Surprise, surprise!!!! My grow log was loaded with mushrooms!!!! Of course they were clustered but they were full and they were absolutely beautiful to me so I took my little paring knife and cut my first handfuls and set them in the new fridge I got. The next day, I pared the rest off of the log and cleaned things up. I took a chance and I put the log back in the refrigerator! After 24 hours, I took it out and started to hydrate. I see about 7 pins! I had to dehydrate my first flush. And that's okay. I am not a mushroom eater. Never have been. But, my introduction to mycology got me thinking about how beautiful a fruit for life this fungi world truly is for health. So, am renewing my mind and have a new appreciation for mushrooms and I promise, I will keep you posted. My vision is to add mushroom products to my microgreen growing. Mushroom King is in my future. Thanks for letting me share!
Suzi G.
Love it, 2 times Harvesting already and waiting for 3.
Timothy H.
This was an amazing experience!
We bought two kits, one for me and one for my daughter's home.
My daughter followed the instructions and her harvest have been GREAT!
I on the other hand, was in the hospital and didn't start until I got home.
Bad choice of waiting, I killed my log.
Molly C.
The Shiitake log gave me a few extremely lovely mushrooms with wonderful taste, however
after following the instructions closely, I only got six mushrooms. I am now letting my log dry out to try a second time. Hopefully I will get a larger yield this time around.
I will order from Mushroom King again and try a different kind next time. I would like to try all of the varieties.
Jennifer J.
Super easy instructions, love that everything was included -it was like a magic show for how fast they grew. My only recommendation is to include recipes to make with the mushrooms.
Nanette E.
Love this kit.was so much fun growing them.will be ordering again as I am hooked!
Linda R.
Harvested mushrooms!
I have used other mushroom growing programs and I did not have any luck. The directions, pictures and support ( if needed) are outstanding! Thank you!
Brian G.
Loved the grow and the finished product. The shiitake were beautiful and delicious
Kenneth R.
Fantastic I love it thank you! Well worth it!
William B.
Got it to share with my Grandaugter she is 8 and can't wait to come and check them out.
She is now interested in mushroom growing.
She wants to grow hens in the woods.
Thank you., as u can see they are growing beautifully.
matt n.
Easy to set up, fun to watch. Well worth the money!
Tom A.
That was fun, and the mushrooms were fresh. The mushrooms were already growing, when they arrived. Some were an inch tall. So a few were damaged.
Mark S.
I am new to this hobby and have been reading books on mycology and watching many videos. I purchased a handful of different companies offering "mushroom grow kits". The Mushroom King Farm grow kit was very straight forward and nicely packaged. Very fast shipping. my "mkf" kit showed up 2 days after I had already received 2 prior grow kits from a different company. I utilized the mono tub fruiting chambers with all the above kits. I followed the instructions in the box for the most part. Let me say this kit was awesome. It produced 2 lbs of fruit. This company is the best in Shiitake grow kits. I wish they would expand into other mushrooms.Oh btw this kit fruited before the other grow kits by 3 days. Sitting in the same room right next to each other. My first flush EVER 2 lbs.....No joke...
Andrew H.
Fun and rewarding find. Looking forward to the next harvest.
Rachel M.
Boyfriend loved it ! Will continue to buy more
Owen B.
I am very pleased with it have showed it off and ate mushroom from it today would think every one would want one
Susan B.
It was a gift for my husband that called it a smashing success!
Gwyn B.
Very interesting. Bought to try and experience the new taste. Worked perfectly.
Mary C.
As I told you earlier in an email things had been crazy around here and I completely forgot about my farm in a room that was chilly and dark! The day I decided to take care of the mushrooms, I found relatively large mushrooms growing from each end of the log! I took them off, put them in the refrigerator in a paper bag. We had them the other night with steak and onions, they were delicious! Following the instructions you emailed me, we have quite a nice little farm coming along! I will send pics when we get another harvest! Thank you so much! Mary
David P.
These mushrooms are awesome. They grow really fast and taste delicious too. Customer service is the best. I'm fixing to buy another log. Thanks Josh, you're the best. Keep up the good work.
Mike L.
It’s amazing- growing your own mushrooms what a hobby. The customer care was helpful in providing instructions and directions on how to successfully grow the mushroom. I have to get one for my grandkids. Thanks
Christopher C.
Very easy to set up. Easy to take care of.
I did not remove excess growth and still had beautiful large mushrooms
Cynthia R.
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner just became tastier.
Robert K.
shipping was prompt, followed instructions, the mushrooms are delicious.
Frank C.
Such an awesome company!! My Shitakes were so easy to grow. Better than that was eating them!!! They are absolutely delicious!! The instructions were very simple. Love them
rose c.
It is fun harvesting the mushroom if you can actually call it that. It grows so fast! I’m taking a picture each day to compare the significant difference in growth. I removed some nubs to allow growth for the adjacent mushrooms. I sautéed the nubs and they were delicious. As easy as a chia pet! Really!
jeffrey v.
Finally a company has mushrooms that actually grow
Lincoln F.
First harvest was a little slow growing at 62* but was a fantastic harvest.
David P.
These mushrooms are awesome. This is what they look like at 5 days. Absolutely awesome mushrooms and awesome customer service. I'm now starting round 2. Everyone should get these. The grandkids have a lot of fun watching them grow.
Mckay W.
Still growing! Looking at the caps it’ll probably be ready for harvest in the next day or two. Very nice and fun project!
Alex L.
Awesome experience, quick, easy, simple instructions. Starting round 2 now. Can’t wait!
Omrani R.
mushrooms Farm is Doing Great!! Thank you so much Appreciate You Always
Ingrid G.
Growing shiitake mushrooms with my friends was a fun shared experience!! You really have to stay on top of misting. And you may need to make some adjustments for trapping humidity, while allowing for airflow, in the dry winter air. But otherwise it was just really fun to watch the mushrooms magically appear and grow! They tasted delicious at the end too!
Fei C.
We love all things mushrooms and this was no exception. It was easy to grow and the mushrooms tasted tender and delicious! We are trying to grow a second batch now!
John Y.
I bought this as a gift for my father and he absolutely loved it!
Fiona D.
Super exciting watching the mushroom grow, it’s literally growing right before our eyes! I took a picture of it daily in the morning and evening and saw a significant difference. Currently trying to get a second harvest now!
ALLEN Claudette A.
Bought this mushroom kit for my bf and I must say we both love it. It's exciting to open the box each day and see how much the mushrooms grew. They are very tasty as well. I bought 2 kits and we had plenty of mushroom to eat. We also dehydrated the rest to preserve it. I definitely recommend this to everyone. I guarantee you will love it too!
John E.
Bought this as a gift and even though the recipient didn't read the instructions properly (clearly his fault LOL) - he was STILL able to get his mushrooms to flourish after getting helpful advice from the brand on IG. Highly recommend!!
spencer s.
I sent two of my grand daughters for their special project to grow SHITAKE mushrooms in their home. They are so excited and loved these boxes of SHITAKE kit. I wish I have more grand children I can send. I also sent one box to my friend In Stafford Virgina. My friend and his wife loved to take on the project of growing SHITAKE.
Amy P.
I loved my first harvest experience. The directions were easy to follow and everything went according to how it was laid out in the brochure. I opted not to prune any of my pins which is why some of my mushrooms were a little smaller. I'm now growing my second batch from the SAME log.
Jewel H.
Super easy, directions were very helpful. It was a lot of fun from start to finish.
Karla I.
This was a fantastic experience. The mushrooms were excellent. So fun to watch. Now hoping for a second flush
Enoch K.
I bought two units, one for my nieces and one for myself! Obviously my young nieces thought it was super cool. I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did. I don't think I took all the proper steps and did not get as good of a harvest as I could have, but still really enjoyed the product. Great job guys!
Adriana E.
So fun and easy!
Steven L.
Easy to grow. Great instructions and tools included. They only negative was the included thermometer / hygrometer got faulty after I dropped it into water under the log. A great buy regardless. My kids learned a lot and we ate good too!
Monica M.
Love this idea! its soooo easy and gratifying to grow your own mushrooms and harvest them in just a week sometimes!!!
Samuel H.
My log only took 6 days to harvest. I followed the recipe.for the shiitake tomato bisque and it came out perfect!
Rochelle F.
What a great gift! I decided to gift a couple of these to friends for the holiday while we still had plenty of time to shelter in place and work from home. It is something different, new and exciting (for 2020, lol). Makes a great gift for the friend who has everything, enjoys cooking, is a vegetarian and or has dietary restrictions, the friend who is obsessed with plants, or just someone who needs a fun pick me up. We will be gifting these again in the future!
Alex M.
Amazing! The instructions were easy to follow and well detailed.
Kayla T.
Love this mushroom growing kit and the mushrooms are amazing!!!
STEPHANIE W.
Super fun and easy to grow. The harvest is also DELICIOUS and plentiful!
Agnes G.
Give it as a Christmas gift and they loved it!
Lily V.
Loved this! It’s a perfect quarantine activity. Bought two more for my friends.
Glenda P.
Loved it!!! The mushrooms were delicious and meaty too!! Only thing that happened was that when we picked up one of the logs to pick mushrooms off, it split in half. We are definitely going to buy again!! Reason why we bought this product was because we follow Joe on JKN and also because of the health benefits of Shiitake mushrooms. Recently our dog became paralyzed so we are looking for healthy medicinal options for her. Mikka loves them in her soup! Wonderful product!!!
Jacob V.
I bought this kit for my girlfriend and she absolutely loved growing her own mushrooms! She would not stop talking about them. They tasted awesome. Will most likely buy another one. Great product and great fun.
Alysa P.
a lot of fun and great opportunity to have fresh mushrooms available. We recently moved to an area where asian produce isn’t always available or fresh and this makes a big difference in our meals.
Annika L.
Bought this kit as a gift for my friend. She loves it and is so excited about the growing process. She's attempted it in the past with another type of mushroom but didn't have much luck so it's fun hearing about the progress. One of the first things she texted me about after receiving the kit was that she was so happy it included a humidity sensor!
While I can't review the growing process myself, customer service was and has been excellent. Overall so happy to have ordered this kit and I plan to get one for myself later this year.
Michael B.
Shipped in good shape. The kit is easy to setup. And after only a few days, there was significant growth, more than expected! Very fun process.
Colin H.
I bought three of these for family members over thE holidays. All of them loved it.
Danielle L.
I ordered this as a gift for my brother for Christmas and it did not disappoint! It was shipped and delivered in a manner of days. My brother also said the process was easy to follow and the mushrooms started growing so quickly! Will definitely be buying more for friends and myself.
Breanna W.
They grow so fast! Wish it were possible to get more mushrooms out of it than just two uses but it’s okay it’s totally worth the money. Will be buying again for sure.
Edward B.
Easy experience for the first harvest. I’ll get another log when I’m ready to grow more.
David C.
Tolerated colder and drier conditions than recommended, in the basement, still yielded lots of fruit quickly. Harvested the first round and are waiting for the second round to mature now.
michelle t.
What a fun quarentine activity to have. loved it so much i sent loved ones logs for xmas!
Queena C.
Mushroom kit was a gift to a friend. It arrived late due to UPS shipping delay. I requested a new log for the kit and Alex was super helpful. He was able to ship me a new log for the kit within a week. Definitively will buy again.
Michael C.
Super easy to grow and the most delicious mushrooms ever! I even gave one to my Dad for Christmas!
Reichael C.
Super fun and easy to grow, AND Im not one with a green thumb. Customer service is amazing, helped with shipping delay and educating me on the growth process!
Will be ordering again!
cristina z.
so fun and great results
Andy P.
First time growing anything! Process is easy and fun! Loving the progress, can’t wait to eat!!
Theresa L.
I bought 2 farm kits as gifts for family. These were a great way to keep unemployed elderly busy. They have grown a good amount of mushrooms and love the freshness of homegrown mushrooms!
Wha L.
Easy and the mushrooms were delicious!
Junji T.
Wonderful purchase! Never thought I'd actually get so many huge shitake mushrooms...and super easy to grow. If you can handle a spray bottle, you're good. Oh, and fun to watch them grow too 'cause they grow so fast!
Jarren B.
Bought for my girlfriend because she love mushrooms. She grew to a great size and they were delicious. She really enjoyed growing them. Would buy again.
Justine H.
Love this mushroom kit! I originally saw this on an episode of JK news (I've been a long time fan of the channel #JoemaliaForever) and knew it would be an awesome Christmas gift for my dad. The kit arrived quickly and instructions on how to store were very clear. My dad started growing his mushrooms two days after Christmas and in a week, he was just about ready to harvest (see pic). He absolutely loves his organic shiitake mushrooms!! I will definitely buy again and recommend to anyone with a craving to grow be a farmer! Thanks Mushroom King Farm!
Brian L.
Bought it as a gift for my cousin for Christmas. Came in just in time and she loves it! She is officially a “mushroom mommy” :)
Xiao H.
Sent as gifts and recipients loved the experience. Fun and delicious.
Ashley B.
It was really fun growing it! It grew quite fast. It was also satisfying to eat something that was self grown.
Faith N.
It was a gift for my son who loved it
Atiqah Salami M.
The person who received the kit as a Christmas gift is really happy and satisfied with the overall experience. Congrats team!
Sophorn L.
They grew WAYYY faster than I expected and it was so fun to watch!! Absolutely loved this! Defined buying again for future gifts!!
Sammy H.
This mushroom kit is so cool! Super easy to follow the directions and get them growing fast. 10/10 recommend this, you will not be disappointed.
Crystal S.
Came quickly and was a great gift!
Daysha P.
Bought as a gift for my grandpa for Christmas, and will probably now be buying one for myself(:
Ivy K.
The delivery of my original order was delayed for over 10 days. I contacted Mushroom King, they immediately shipped a replacement order within 2 days, I really appreciate the prompt response. It was really fun to watch the mushrooms grow. The mushrooms taste really good, more chewy and have an earthier flavor than the store bought ones.
Angela P.
Bought this for my daughter (7) who is very interested in gardening in order to avoid having a planter in the house (it’s very cold right now outside so that’s a no go). It worked perfectly! I followed the directions (husband didn’t like the log in the bathtub but you gotta do what you gotta do) and it grew tons of mushrooms!! Many have been picked off (kids have no respect for mushrooms) but they grew big and plentiful. The few we ate were good. It’s a fun experience for kids and a tasty one for the family. Recommend. 5/5 would do it again.
