Spenser made growing mushrooms at home so obtainable! The course is informative, well explained, and easy to follow. Any questions my wife and I asked were answered in a timely manner. We harvested a huge flush of beautiful blue oyster mushrooms on our first grow. We made fettuccine alfredo with sauteed mushrooms which was delicious. Thank you, Spenser, for sharing your expertise!

I spent hours trying to figure out how to grow lion’s mane mushrooms by searching online, but it was so overwhelming—there was just too much conflicting advice. This course made everything so much easier. The step-by-step instructions were clear and straightforward, and it gave me the confidence to actually get started. Seeing my first harvest of lion’s mane was such a rewarding experience. I’m so glad I found this course. It turned a confusing process into something enjoyable and achievable.

I had always been curious about growing my own mushrooms but didn’t know where to start. This course was exactly what I needed. It laid everything out in a way that was easy to follow and super practical. Within a few weeks, I had my first harvest of oyster mushrooms, and they were absolutely gorgeous. I love how the course gave me the confidence to try something completely new. Now I can’t wait to grow even more!

Frequently asked questions
Can't I just learn this on YouTube?
YouTube can be a good starting point, and Folk Fungi has several popular videos there. However, YouTube lacks depth and support. In this course, you'll receive much more detailed instruction than in any YouTube video, and you won't be left waiting, hoping for a response to your comments. Instead, Spenser will provide detailed answers to your specific questions, ensuring you get the guidance you need.
How is this course different than growing mushrooms with a kit?
With a mushroom kit, most of the work has been done for you. You just need to cut open the fruiting block, mist it with water, and watch the mushrooms grow. This is a great way to get familiar with mushroom growing.
In this course, you'll learn how to do each step of the growing process yourself. Owning the entire process is fun, rewarding, and much cheaper than buying pre-made kits (it's also surprisingly easy).
What equipment do I need?
We'll show you how to grow mushrooms with household items you can easily find at a hardware store or online. For example: buckets, plastic storage boxes, and hardwood pellets. You might even have some of these items lying around your home. You'll also need to buy mushroom grain spawn. When you enroll in the course, we'll provide you with a list of grain spawn providers in Canada, the United States, and Europe.
Depending on what you already have, expect to spend $75 to $125 CAD, much of which is a one-time expense. Once you have your setup, you can use it forever to grow mushrooms.
How much space do I need?
Enough space for a plastic storage box is all you need!
Do I need any prior experience?
Nope! The course is designed for beginners and assumes no prior experience or knowledge. We describe each growing step in a clear and thorough fashion.
When does the course start?
Grow Mushrooms the Easy Way is a self-study course. Start learning whenever you want, at whatever pace you want.
Do the videos have subtitles?
Yes, every video has English subtitles available. You can turn them on or off.
