Why Use CVG Mix for Mushroom Cultivation?
Our CVG mix is a favourite among growers using the monotub method or growing in sealed bags. Whether you’re working with lion’s mane, chestnut mushrooms, cordyceps militaris, turkey tail, or red reishi – this mix supports consistent results and maximises yields.
- Sterile & Ready to Use: No need to hydrate or pasteurise. The mix arrives at field capacity and ready for inoculation.
- Perfect for Functional Mushrooms: Works well with all gourmet and medicinal mushroom cultures sold by Spore Buddies.
- Supports Healthy Mycelium Growth: Loose, nutrient-rich structure allows the mycelium to spread rapidly.
- Balanced Moisture & Airflow: Reduces risk of contamination while creating the ideal conditions for fruiting.
How to Use CVG Mix in a Monotub or Grow Bag
- Inoculate Your Grain Spawn: Once fully colonised, layer your grain spawn evenly into the pre-mixed CVG substrate.
- Mix & Seal: Gently mix the spawn with the substrate, then seal your monotub or grow bag.
- Incubate: Store in a dark, warm location until the mycelium has fully colonised the substrate (1–2 weeks).
- Introduce Fruiting Conditions: Once fully colonised, introduce fresh air and light. Fruiting will begin shortly after.
Post-Harvest Use
Once harvested, mushrooms can be dehydrated and stored long term. Spore Buddies sells dehydrators, grinders, capsule makers, and empty teabags – ideal for preparing mushrooms for teas or supplements.
