Welcome to the World of Mushroom Cultivation with Tripping Store’s BRF Inject & Forget Grow Bag!
Our BRF (Brown Rice Flour) Inject & Forget Grow Bag is designed for effortless mushroom cultivation. With this bag, there’s no need to mist, cut, fan, or adjust humidity—just inject your spores, follow the simple steps, and let nature do the work!
Let’s get started on your hassle-free mushroom-growing journey.
Step 1: Initiate the Magic – Prepare and Sow Your Spores!
- Wash Your Hands! Before beginning, thoroughly wash your hands and ensure you’re working in a clean environment.
- Proper Spore Storage: If not using your spores immediately, store them in the fridge. Take them out 24 hours before use to reach room temperature.
- Shake It Up! Before injecting, give the syringe a very good shake to evenly distribute the spores.
- No Need to Heat the Needle: These are medical-grade sterile needles, so there’s no need to flame them. Keep it simple!
- Cleanliness is Key: Use the alcohol wipe provided to clean the bag’s injection point.
- Inject Your Spores: Quickly remove the syringe cap, insert the needle through the injection port, and inject your spores evenly.
- Mix the Bag: After injecting the spores, remove the needle and give the bag a thorough mix.
- Break Up Lumps & Clumps: Gently massage the bag, making sure to break up any lumps or clumps, ensuring the spores are well distributed.
- Lay It on Its Side: Once mixed, place the bag on its side—this helps promote even colonization.
Step 2: Mix at 30% Colonization
Once the bag reaches 30% colonization (when you see white mycelium spreading), it’s time for the first mix:
- Gently break up and mix the colonized sections with the uncolonized substrate.
- Lay the bag on its side after mixing to promote even growth.
- This helps distribute the mycelium evenly and speeds up colonization.

Step 3: Mix at 60% Colonization
Once the bag reaches about 60% colonization, perform one final mix:
- Again, gently mix the colonized and uncolonized areas to speed up full colonization.
- Lay the bag on its side again and let it sit undisturbed until 100% colonization is achieved.
Step 4: Fruiting Conditions – The Final Step!
Once the bag is fully colonized, it’s time to introduce light!
- Light Cycle: Set a 12-hour on, 12-hour off light cycle.
- No need to mist, cut, or introduce airflow—everything happens inside the bag!
- Sit back and watch as your mushrooms start to grow!
Step 5: Harvesting – The Magical Reveal
- Once your mushrooms have reached full maturity, simply open the bag and harvest!
- Twist or cut at the base to preserve the mycelium for possible future flushes.

Enjoy your grow! 🍄
Can spore syringes be stores at room temp even if it reduces the shelf life? I know a fridge is ideal but I share a kitchen with roommates known to have sticky fingers.
Hi Adriana,
Thank you for your question!
The ideal storage for spore syringes is between 2°C and 6°C, so keeping them in a fridge is best. Outside of a fridge, their shelf life is reduced, lasting about two to three months, while in a fridge, they can last up to six to seven months. If you need to store them at room temperature, just ensure they are kept in the dark and away from sunlight to help them last as long as possible.
How many mls of spores do you need to inject for a 4lb bag?
The guide sizes from bags to spores are as follows:
• 1 lb bag: 2.5 ml spores
• 2 lb bag: 10 ml spores
• 4 lb bag: 20 ml spores
• 1.5 kg grain bag: 20 ml spores
• 1 lb grain bag: 2.5 ml spores
With the Dutch kit’s you give them a soak (cold shock) after harvesting,
Can you do the same with the dung master bags to promote further flushes?
Hi,
Thanks for your question!
To get further flushes with the Dung Master Bag, you’ll need to rehydrate the substrate. Here’s how:
Once you’ve harvested everything from the first flush, soak the substrate in water. Make sure to leave about an inch of the substrate above the waterline—this way, most of the substrate is soaked without being fully submerged. Use normal tap water for this.
Let it soak for 12 hours, then drain it thoroughly. Tilt the substrate at an angle to allow excess water to drain out, leaving it to drain well for about 45 minutes.
After draining, place the substrate back into fruiting conditions with the ideal temperature, light, and air circulation. This will help encourage the next flush.
Do you have to keep the temp consistent throughout grow into fruiting or just at Colonization stage
Hi,
Yes, temperature is very important, especially during the colonization phase, but it’s equally essential to maintain the right temperature during the fruiting stage to achieve optimal results. While the colonization phase is more sensitive to temperature fluctuations, it’s still critical to aim for the perfect range throughout both stages.
For the best results, you should maintain a consistent temperature between 24°C and 27°C during both the colonization and fruiting stages. This will help create the ideal environment for your mushrooms to thrive.

When fruiting, how bright should a grow light be when set at 12/12?
Can you reassure me that there’s no need to open my grow bag when about to fruit? I’m thinking of moisture and oxygen exchange.
Thank you
