Chestnut Mushroom Grow Kit

Description

Chestnut mushrooms form handsome clusters of rich brown caps with a firm bite and a pleasant, nutty flavour. They hold their shape in slow cooks, roasts and soups, and are a great pick for cooler seasons.

How to grow

Cut an X in the bag, keep at 12-20C in indirect light and mist the opening twice daily. Pins show in 7-10 days and mature within about a week.
