Fruiting Blocks - Ready to Fruit( RTF)
Ready to Fruit Mushroom Grow Kits, or RTF kits for short, is an easy, convenient, and safe way to grow organic mushrooms in your home without a large investment in equipment. Our RTF blocks are ready to produce or “fruit” mushrooms when they arrive on your doorstep. If you are not ready to fruit it yet or give it as a gift, we recommend storing it in the refrigerator until it is ready to use.
Use the RTF Kit to place the block in the appropriate location. Cut any X across the top of the bag and maintain humidity.
