CVG Mushroom Substrate Sterilised

Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 1 customer rating

£10.75 – £18.50 inc. VAT

Our meticulously prepared CVG mushroom substrate features a premium blend of coir, vermiculite, and gypsum. Hydrated to field capacity with double-filtered water – devoid of chlorine, chloramine, and VOCs – it undergoes an extensive sterilisation process in an industrial autoclave for 3 hours at 126°C. This ensures an impeccable, sterile substrate that is perfect for mushroom cultivation of various strains.

Sterilising the substrate on an extended cycle eradicates all potential contaminants and helps to partially break down the structure of the coir, making it more accessible for mycelium colonisation. This process results in faster and cleaner colonisation than non-sterilised, pasteurised coir, making it an optimal choice for various mushroom species, including slow-growing ones. It supplies essential micronutrients, hydration, and bulk, promoting robust and prolific mushroom growth.

Proper hydration of substrate is crucial; insufficient water results in low yields, while excess water prolongs colonisation and invites bacterial contamination. You can avoid these pitfalls by using our six years of expertise to process your substrate. Each bag is expertly prepared, hydrated, and sterilised in a computer-controlled industrial autoclave.

Enhanced colonisation speed.
Complete contaminant elimination.
Balanced hydration for optimal yields.
Essential nutrients for healthy growth.
Convenient and reliable.

Additionally, the substrate can be supplemented with chopped straw or chicken manure to enrich its nutrient profile further. For optimal results, pair it with our top-selling sterilised organic rye grain bags – together they’re a match made in heaven.

1 review for CVG Mushroom Substrate Sterilised

Rated 5 out of 5

Dan (verified owner) – 25 February 2025

To be transparent I haven’t finished trialing maya cvg substrate but I have tried from six other suppliers. So far. I’ve carried out the exact same inoculation procedure with the same generics in order to gain my final results. And so far I have definitely written off certain suppliers. I have high hopes for maya though! The sound and seem very genuine with their passion and professionalism in providing high quality and virtually guaranteed sterilisation. Only a few more weeks to go and I will have chosen my champion 🤞😇❤️
