LOVE this kit - I bought three on a whim (two as gifts and one for myself) and have just harvested my first batch of huge, beautiful Lions Mane mushrooms! The kits are great, with super easy to follow instructions. Customer service was also amazing - I emailed a query and was responded to very quickly. Highly recommended!
I love all Lions Mane products. This one gets added to my evening meal. I find it stronger than the capsules, even though they are incredibly convenient at times. I have both in my house. My mind is sharper thanks to this great product. Love, love, love Lions Mane and how it has improved my life.
Tried these for two months, promptly ordered more to last me the next 4 months! These are great, have very much noticed I seem more alert and on the ball. Thank you!
I bought some Blue Pearl Oyster and Pink mushrooms for my brother-in-law. It was the perfect Christmas gift, sprouted within days and he will be eating them from some time yet. Swift delivery and very friendly service. Would highly recommend these guys. Such fun growing your own food.
I bought the lion’s mane for my partner and he loved it. We have already had a number of mushrooms come from it. Will be buying again!
This is my third order and always get a few giant harvests with no hassles and very easy to grow
Thank you for being a repeat customer! I’m thrilled the kits are consistently easy to grow and giving you great harvests. Happy growing!

This is my third order and always get a few giant harvests with no hassles and very easy to grow
Thank you for your loyalty! I’m so glad the grow kits have been producing giant harvests for you every time. Happy growing!
Not more than 7 days after receiving the Mushroom Grow Kit, I saw mushrooms growing from the base! Worth every cent.
Amazing to hear your mushrooms are thriving so quickly! Thanks for your support—so glad you're loving the grow kit!
OK have been looking to Lion's Mane after reading about it's results with facial nerve regeneration after Ramsay Hunt Syndrome and so far so good, taste wise at least !! Had tried a different way to cook previously but today whipped it up with Tempura batter and it's beautiful !! Now to try for the 2nd flush & see how that one goes !! Very satisfied with That Mushroom Guy's sales & service !! Thanks
So glad you're enjoying the Lion's Mane and loving the tempura! Best of luck with the second flush—thanks for your support!
Mines growing really well, tho there was a minor hiccup cuz I left it outside and it driedup a bit. But thats my fault and has recovered since! I'm excited to see how much grams itll produce. KEEEn
Thanks for sharing your experience! I'm glad it's recovering and growing well despite the hiccup. Wishing you an exciting and bountiful harvest ahead!
Unfortunately I didn't get a good result from the lion's mane kit I brought. Less than 1/2 full yield on first flush. Using the exact same grow conditions/location as my other lion's mane kits from other suppliers, I always got full yield 1st flush and a good 3/4 yield 2nd flush. Quite disappointing. Maybe I got a bad batch?
Thank you for your feedback! I reviewed all the photos you uploaded and, based on these, I believe it’s not fair to compare our mushroom kits in this way, especially as some of the instructions weren’t followed. From the images, I noticed that the kits were not removed from their boxes, which severely limited airflow. This restricted ventilation is evident in the matted appearance on top of the Lion’s Mane, indicating insufficient air exchange and excess moisture buildup.
Comparing Lion’s Mane to oyster mushrooms is also an unfair comparison, particularly as the oyster mushrooms you’re referencing appear to have been grown using an entirely different method. While both require good fresh air exchange, Lion's Mane is especially sensitive to airflow management, which directly impacts its appearance.
Regarding yield, could you clarify what you meant by “less than full half yield on the first flush and then 3/4 on the second flush”? If you’re saying the first flush produced 50% of the average yield (around 540g) and the second flush yielded 75% (810g), then your total yield would be approximately 1,340g—260g more than the yield estimates provided on the product page, despite not following the instructions.
If you had reached out sooner, I could have offered some guidance to help achieve optimal results. However, since you’ve replied in the review section, I think it’s only fair for me to address the issues related to improper use and comparison of the kits for any potential customers that may read your review.

The instructions are simple and actually work! The pink oysters were quickest to grow. They are beautiful but second flush less tough. Without looking after them a third flush is already growing. The Lions Mane is a slower grower but I personally prefer this mushroom. Texture and taste is subtle yet very interesting. The second flush is also growing with no attention from me. I will DEFINITELY be buying more mushrooms from the Mushroom Guy. My only other feedback is a cross cut is better to manage than a x cut into the bag. Go forth and grow folks. You can’t go wrong!!
Thanks so much for the feedback! Thrilled you enjoyed the experience and harvests.
Ordered both the pink oyster and lion's mane kits. Great projects that just require misting a few times a day! I set them up on my kitchen bench and have already had a first flush - looks like second flush is coming up now (pink oysters grew super fast in a week). Very happy with these kits thanks!
Thanks for your review :) The pink oyster still surprise me with how fast they grow
We received the X2 kits within 3 days from placing the order (very good). The 2 kits have been sitting in the fridge for about a week before we could start them. The white oysters did start growing immediately (first harvest tomorrow). The lion's mane are taking their time, but seems like that finally something it's happening.
So far, so good! Great way to try/start.
Thanks for sharing and for your review. I hope the Lion's Mane came out just as good
Thanks for your review :)
This product was great, I loved watching them grow and eating them was a treat, they are so tasty and have a meaty texture. The mushroom guy was very helpful and answered all my questions. I would fully recommend trying this amazingly healthy and tasty product.
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed both growing and easting Lion’s Mane.
First time growing mushrooms and it couldn’t have been easier. Instructions were super easy to follow. We now have a huge lions mane mushroom affectionately called Martin growing on our bench top.
So glad the process was easy—and Martin sounds like quite the mushroom!
Everyone can do this! I’ve already started harvesting my mushrooms already. And it’s the best mushrooms ever! So easy! All information with step by step instructions provided. Will definitely get more!
Thanks so much! I'm thrilled you're enjoying the harvest. Happy growing!
Value for money. Good amount of grain spawn to create bags or buckets.!great results in both!
Thanks for your review mate. Those mushrooms look awesome!
Healthy and producing really beautiful mycelium that has produced the most amazing fruits!
Thanks for sharing your experience—happy growing!
Works as described, got a monster mushroom growing already! Too easy, I'll probably get a couple more to keep them on a rotation. Thank you!
So glad to hear you're already growing a monster mushroom! thanks for the awesome feedback!
Thank you for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a positive experience with our True Lion's Mane Grow Kit.
Order process was easy, item shipped and received on time. Setup and healthy mushrooms now growing. Looking forward to harvesting and eating soon.
Highly recommended.
