Shrooly - Smart Mushroom Growing Device
Shrooly, a smart device, brings top-quality culinary and functional mushrooms into people's homes, introducing them to the incredible diversity and versatility of mushrooms while contributing to a more sustainable future. The smart device maintains perfect growing conditions for each species at all times, including fresh air, light, humidity, and temperature, and allows you to monitor and control the growth phase of your mushrooms with your smartphone.
Shrooly is suitable for both beginners and experienced mushroom growers: it has pre-programmed cultivation programmes for guaranteed success, but also allows manual control of the settings. Shrooly’s free mobile app provides detailed statistics and allows you to capture images of your mushrooms’ growth, allowing you to easily track their journey from spores to fully grown mushrooms. Even when users are not at home, they can easily check in with their Shrooly device via the mobile app.
Shrooly comes with pods or growing blocks that contain pre-inoculated substrates for mushroom cultivation. There are currently over 12 mushroom varieties available, including pink and yellow oyster mushrooms, shiitake, reishi, lion’s mane, and cordyceps. The growing pods are completely organic and pesticide-free, and each pod allows the user to harvest up to three times the amount of an average store-bought portion; harvesting can begin in as little as 7-10 days. Anyone interested in growing their own mushrooms can use AnyMushTM pods, which can be inoculated with any liquid culture. The company also provides a monthly subscription service that allows users to discover new, exotic mushroom species every month.
