5 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Growing Mushrooms For A Living

Here are 5 of the main lessons I've learnt after more than a decade growing mushrooms for a living.

The 5 lessons are:

1) You don't need to grow mushrooms using sterile techniques (low tech methods work well)

2) It's easier to source your spawn from a supplier (instead of making it yourself)

3) Growing mushrooms is really labour intensive (start small and scale up once you know what is involved)

4) Selling food can be more difficult than growing it (focus as much time on selling your produce as you do growing it)

5) It's difficult to grow mushrooms as a full-time business (unless you incorporate value-added products like mushroom grow kits, workshops/courses, or charitable activities)
