Straw (Chopped & Dust Extracted)
£31 – £250.50 (incl. VAT)
Premium, dust-extracted, chopped and sterilised rapeseed straw – The perfect food source for growing oyster mushrooms.
Many people say growing mushrooms on straw can be a messy affair, and it can be if you’re chopping bales yourself or you’re getting dusty old straw bales from the farmer!
Home-based mushroom cultivation on straw is now a cleaner and more enjoyable affair. Our dry, UK harvested rape seed straw is first chopped into the perfect 1-3 inch length, dust-extracted (all dust removed), passed through gamma radiation which kills 99% of all bacteria, mould, allergens and spores and finally packaged into sealed plastic mini-bales. This ensures straw remains dry, fresh and contaminant free.
We use the same straw and cold water ash pasteurisation to grow our oyster mushrooms on a commercial level. Don’t forget to order your horticultural grade gypsum for increased yields.
Straw can be hydrated and pasteurised using either hot water/steam, lime, wood ash or even dish soap – or a combination of methods.
Packed in highly compressed, none-clumping 20kg bags. Due to size and weight, this product is excluded from free delivery.

Cleaner than the straw I can get. Less dusty. Saves time and is less noisy than chopping up with a grass strimmer in a wheelie bin, wrapped up so will stay dry. It's more expensive than buying bales from the farmer but more convenient in so many way.

Can’t comment yet. Planning to use it later in the year.
