About Us

What Makes Spore Buddies Different?

Unlike many other magic mushroom spore suppliers you’ll find online, we manufacture our own spore syringes, prints, and swabs at our purpose-built facility in West Sussex, which allows us to guarantee the quality of our products. How do we know this? Because many of those other suppliers source their products directly from us!

We understand the importance of reliability and precision in mycology. That’s why every spore solution we prepare goes through rigorous quality control:

Microscopic Inspection: Each batch is examined under a microscope to ensure it meets with our rigorous purity standards and is completely free of contaminants.

Hydration Perfection: Spore syringes are carefully hydrated for optimal use in research and study.

Clean and Contaminant-Free: Our commitment to quality ensures that you receive only the best products for your mycological needs.

We ship to customers throughout the UK and beyond, using reliable couriers that we trust to deliver your package securely and discretely. All our stock is carefully wrapped and packed for the journey, and for overseas customers, we ensure that all necessary customs documentation has been completed prior to dispatch.

Spore Buddies FAQ

Mushroom grow kits are all-in-one solutions that provide everything you need to grow mushrooms from start to finish. Each kit includes:

  • Sterilised Substrate: The perfect growing medium, pre-prepared to save you time and effort.
  • Mushroom substrate container: Your mushroom growing kit will come as a mushroom bag kit like our Inject and Forget bags or a mushroom box kit like the Mycobox or monotub kits.
  • Comprehensive Instructions: Detailed guidance to help you succeed, whether it’s your first attempt or your fiftieth.


With these kits, you can grow delicious and nutritious mushrooms like shiitake, oyster, and lion’s mane in the comfort of your own home.

Growing mushrooms offers a range of benefits:

1. Freshness and Flavour: Homegrown mushrooms taste better and are free from preservatives.

2. Sustainability: Reduce your carbon footprint by cultivating your own produce.

3. Educational Value: Learn about the life cycle of fungi in a hands-on way that’s engaging for all ages.

With our grow kits, you can expect to see mushrooms growing in as little as 2–6 weeks, depending on the mushroom variety and growing conditions. For example, the Dutch style mycobox will colonise in 2 weeks and start fruiting through the filter patch on the lid when injected with 20ml lion’s main and kept at 26c. Whereas other mushrooms may take 4 weeks to colonise the same amount of substrate.

In mycology, contamination often appears as unwanted growth that differs from healthy mycelium. Some common signs include:

  • Discolouration: Green, black, blue, yellow, or pink spots can indicate mould or bacterial contamination.
  • Fuzzy or Powdery Texture: Healthy mycelium tends to be white and rope-like, whereas contaminants may look fuzzy, slimy, or powdery.
  • Bad Odours: A strong, unpleasant smell often indicates bacterial growth.
  • Wet Spots: Bacterial contamination can cause mushy or wet patches on the substrate.

Keeping the growing environment sterile helps prevent contamination.

No, you won’t need any special equipment! All you need to grow mushrooms at home is mushroom spore cultures, a mushroom growing kit, mushroom incubator or airing cupboard.

Absolutely. Our kits are designed to work indoors, making them perfect for kitchens, bedrooms, or any space with stable temperatures and humidity. Growing mushrooms at home is made much easier with a Growbuddie60 mushroom incubator.

If you’ve ever wanted to cultivate mushrooms at home, you’re in the right place. Our grow kits are carefully designed for success, whether you’re growing for culinary use, education, or pure enjoyment. Here’s what makes our kits stand out:

  • User-Friendly Design: Inject and forget mushroom kits as well as All in one grow kits are the easiest grow kits on the internet.
  • Recommended for beginners: and Mycology Vikings alike – Spores are not included, so you will need to buy spore cultures to use the kits we sell. With clear step-by-step instructions. You will find that mushroom growing can be easy.
  • High-Quality Materials: Premium spores and nutrient-rich substrates ensure consistent and reliable growth.
  • Optimised for UK Conditions: Tailored to thrive in the UK climate, guaranteeing the best results for local growers.

Products from Spore Buddies are designed to help prevent contamination in mushroom cultivation by offering pre-sterilised grow kits, spore syringes, and substrates. These products are handled in controlled environments to ensure cleanliness, reducing the risk of bacteria, mould, or other contaminants entering your grow setup. Additionally, their sterile inoculation ports and sealed bags maintain a contamination-free environment until you’re ready to use the spores or substrate. 

The needles we supply with mushroom spore syringes are sterile. Never wipe or heat the spore syringe needle before use. This will cause contamination. 

If you do have a contamination problem, please contact the team for help.
