A great company and great product

A great company and great product, I have ordered the lions mane boxes on a few occasions now and have seen great results. My latest order of three boxes, produced fruit of between 650 and 750g on the first flush and are looking to be heading in the same direction for the second.

Great service, quality and customer service

I ordered the Lions Mane grow box to grow my own from a recommendation from a friend. There are so many supplements online, it's a minefield! So thought why not, I'll try to grow some!
Ordering was easy and delivery swift. Very well packaged and instructions very easy. I'm amazed at how easy it has been to grow and Craig has been fab in replying to my emails where I've sent pics just to check everything looking good! Highly recommend 🍄

I purchased two grow kits from Marvellous Mushrooms and received one for free as part of a deal.

I received two pink oyster kits and one lions mane kit. They were packaged super well and the instructions were so easy to follow for a first time grower like myself!

I have had huge success with all three of my grow kits, despite temperatures reaching above 30 degrees several times once the mushrooms had started to grow.

Both of my oyster kits have had three flushes of mushrooms now, and have produced some amazing fruits of the most beautiful coral and pink colours.

The lions mane blew my mind, again the first flush was when the temperatures were really high and I still managed to harvest an enormous amount of fruit. My kit is now showing signs of a second flush!

To top it off, the team at Marvellous Mushrooms have been so friendly and interested in the updates I have shared with them through social media.

I have and will continue to highly recommend Marvellous Mushroom's grow kits to others, regardless of their experience level and I can't wait to try another of their kits.

Thank you team, a marvellous job! 😊

Great customer service

Great customer service. Every grow kit I've ordered has produced really good results. I'm currently growing my 3rd kit from these guys and wouldn't buy them anywhere else.

Thank you Amy for your review and continued custom. It's really appreciated :)

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

So disappointing

I bought a "ready to fruit" Lions Mane bag.
There was a tiny bit of mycelium growth at the bottom of the bag. Maybe 3-5%. So there was no way this was ready to fruit. The bag corner had been cut off too. I suspect this was to be able to deflate it quicker for packing into the box but surely the bag is now open to contaminants?
Fortunately the heatwave provided the temperature to continue the mycelium growth (and prevent the one star review).
Two weeks later I, a mere novice, decided the bag was somewhere near fully colonised and cut the "X". That was three days ago and once again the weather was with me and we have had three days of cooler, super humid weather!
I don't know if I will get to see any Lions Mane but if I do I will edit the review.
When your business does well, it is because customers come back and even recommend you. In my case I think I will compete with you as I think you are putting getting stuff out of the door ahead of the customer, and indeed, what you had promised.
UPDATE:
Well three weeks after my mushroom bag arrived I can say I will be harvesting in two to three days.
It is a far cry from what I thought I was buying i.e. "ready to fruit". The company replied with excuses like "Lions Mane mycelium is very fine" when I complained of the product being nowhere near to fruit. I have since watched the very visible mycelium grow to fully colonise - as every bit of research and YouTube video has told me to do. Marvelous Mushrooms also replied that expecting mushrooms after three days was a bit unfair. I am not sure who said that but it wasn't me.
I still maintain that this company wants to get these mushroom bags out of the door a fast as possible, so not ready to fruit at all. A bit of honesty goes a long way. A bit of dishonesty makes the customer go away.

Dear Rob,

Our kits always leave fully colonised and ready to start on receipt. Lion's Mane mycelium is very fine and a fully colonised block doesn't look white.

We know this because we've been making high quality grow-at-home kits for over five years and in that time have made thousands of Lion's Mane kits.

If you had followed the instructions and cut the cross on receipt you'd be near to picking fully grown Lion's Mane mushrooms by now.

Expecting mushrooms 3 days after starting the kit when the instructions say they'll start to show between 10 and 15 days after cutting open the cross seems a little unfair.

If you'd got in-touch with us when you first though there was an issue we would've been more than happy to help clear this up.

Anyway, all this said we still hope your Lion's Mane grows big and healthy :)

Hello Kit and thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It's great to hear your kit grew three flushes of Lion's Mane! The gift that keeps on giving :)

Excellent product and service

Excellent product and service , I buy these all the time ( Lions Mane) - it’s actually cheaper to grow them and dry them out , than to buy them in tablet form
Happy customer

Craig's input was transformational to us

We were having major issues with our previous supplier of LM blocks. Criag stepped in and totally turned this around. High quality fruits, on time deliveries and loads of help on the telephone. Craig's input was transformational to us.

Thank you John! It was great to be able to help an amazing Scottish business and those Lion’s Mane steaks in your restaurant (Makars Mash Bar, Edinburgh) look superb.

Lucky Beginner

This was my first time ordering from Marvellous Mushrooms. I ordered a Lion's mane kit and a white oyster mushroom kit. The oyster mushrooms are ready to pick after only four days! It has been an amazing process watching them! I spoke to Craig about their rapid growth rate in such a short time, and he was really helpful. I can't comment on the Lion's Mane yet, but I'm holding out the hope that these will be just as successful.

Great delivery service - the next day, excellent customer service, and a great price. I'll definitely be ordering again.

Excellent product and customer service

This is the third Lions mane kit I have ordered, as gifts. Ordering, delivery really straightforward and prompt. Both kits produced wonderful crop.
I had a query over first order ( due to an error I made) this was resolved promptly by Craig, great customer service.
I'm looking forward to giving this 3rd gift, and seeing the crop produced. I contacted Craig regarding storage of kit in warm weather, again a really helpful and prompt reply.
Really recommend this company.
