Orders are typically dispatched on the same or next working day. However, please allow up to 3 working days for dispatch, plus any additional product lead times, especially during busy periods.
We ship our products in plain, unbranded, reinforced cardboard boxes with ample internal protection.
Our shipping couriers may leave parcels with a neighbor or in a safe place if no one is home to receive them. To prevent this, please select the designated signed-for service at checkout and ensure you are available to receive the parcel. Otherwise, the package will be held at your local sorting office or returned to us. Please note that we cannot be held responsible for lost, stolen, or missing parcels if the signed-for service is not chosen at checkout.
Larger orders that require multiple boxes will automatically be upgraded to DPD Local shipping, as they support multi-parcel shipments. Extremely large or heavy orders may need to be dispatched via a pallet.
If items are returned to us due to a failed delivery, a redispatch or restocking fee may apply. Please ensure that any held packages are collected from your local sorting office within 2 weeks to avoid them being returned.
We highly recommend upgrading to the ‘DPD Express Tracked’ service at checkout, as we find it to be the fastest, safest, and most reliable option. Please note that Royal Mail may occasionally experience delays in their sorting offices.

Steve Price –
great quality bags which work, worth the little extra in price in my opinion with decent savings when buying bulk amounts. Thank you
Jackie –
I think the previous two reviews covered it all. Great bags which have improvements over traditional unicorn bags. Will continue to use these in the future.
Julie Omar –
better value than unicorn bags at 20% off… ordered 100 for the time being but if you keep the 20% offer going I'll buy more in the future. Arrived well packaged 2 days later

Quality grow bags at a good price. I share the same experience as 'Martin the mushroom man', increased colonization times more uniform across the bag and less contamination issues (on 50 bag grow)
A little something to add: I've had times where I've punctured holes in filter in unicorn bags when handling. These bags seem to mitigate this issue due to their different filtration design.
For me they are worth the small price increase. – An innovative approach to the standard mushroom grow bags
Thanks

Got sent a couple of these bags in a recent order as a bonus gift to try out (thank you very much!), I wasn't sure what to expect as I've never heard of them before. But, I can confirm the following from a direct A/B grow comparison using golden oyster strain on hydrated rye grain:
* Colonisation speeds in these bags increase by ~20%
* Colonisation is noticeably more consistent presumably from the increased areas of filtration/air exchange.
* Quality and strength of bags are similar, they also heat-seal well using an impulse heat sealer.
* I've had contamination problems before if filter has got wet during colonisation of Unicorn bags, it seems to draw in contamination. The design of these bags mean there is increased depth of filter medium so I'm hoping these will be better in the future, but cannot draw accurate conclusions from a small growth trial.
* These are a little more expensive than unicorn bags.
In conclusion: thanks for allowing me to trial them, if the price came down a little to be more in line with Unicorn bags, I'd likely order them instead.
Thanks and hope this is helpful for some.

Hi Martin!
Many thanks for leaving such a great review, it's great to have feedback from our customers and no doubt you would have helped many other people out there.
We use these bags exclusively at Maya Mushrooms for our mushroom blocks and spawn bags (there are two different type for people wondering). Since moving over, we've noted a significant reduction in contaminated bags as well as a quicker colonisation time around 20% as you noted. For us, the slight increase in price is worth it.
We will wait to see what the demand is for the bags, if it's high enough to reach another price-point from our supplier, we might be able to offer them at a better price. Watch this space!
Regards,
Paul
