How to Store Your Oak Mushroom Substrate
Keep bags in a cool, dry, shaded area until you’re ready to use them. Avoid direct sunlight and damp storage spaces, since both can affect substrate quality before inoculation. For best results, use your substrate within a few weeks of purchase.
Thinking Green™: Reduce, Reuse, Regrow
Don’t toss your spent substrate. Instead, repurpose it as compost or a soil enhancer. This cuts waste and recycles nutrients back into your garden, closing the loop between growing and giving back to the soil.
