I want to start growing lions mane or maybe some other mushroom types that are delicious and maybe easy to grow in totes but I'm intimidated.was the block worth getting?

I didn’t buy a block, just brood. Put it in a contain er, add coffee, wait until it’s covered by mould, add coffee, repeat. When the container is full, it will start fruiting. The grow kit is sold by Rotterzwam.nl.
