There really was nothing to growing this kit, just like the ad said. You take the rye pack and undo a twisty tie like section to drop the spore swab tip into the rye berries, then shake the hell out of it and sit it someplace dark and 80 degress for a while. Mine took about 6-7 weeks for the bag to turn white. Then you break the rye berries up and pour them into a 3# compost bag they send with the kit that has some kind of filter patch on it to allow it to breath. You seal that bag with a couple staples and shake the hell out of it and flatten it down and leave it sit in same conditions. Two weeks later and it is exploding with little tiny mushrooms.
I'm still a little unsure about knowing when the right time to pick the shrooms is and what to do with them afterward, but the kit itself couldn't have been easier. Some say it's too expensive, but I was going for the laziness factor. I'll let you know how much I get out of it. The company also sent an order form for a refill pack of certain things that were a little less expensive than the original kit.
