Can You Reuse Mushroom Substrate for Another Flush (Answered)
You’ve successfully produced two or more flushes from your mushroom grow kit. But now what do you do with the leftovers? Can you reuse mushroom substrate? In this article we

Growing your own mushrooms delivers so many benefits.
Not only is it rewarding to produce your own food from your very own garden, you know exactly what has been used (or not been used in the case of chemicals and pesticides) in growing the mushrooms.
The one thing that we, at the Garden Bench Top, love more than growing your own food, is when you are able to employ the three R’s – Reuse, Reduce or Repurpose. For example, using spent coffee grounds to grow mushrooms, or in this case, reusing mushroom substrate to try and grow another flush of mushrooms.
