Gaia Mountain - Premium 2.5kg sawdust Spawn and garden bed plant and grow blocks.

Clean. Vigorous. Guaranteed.

Whether you're a home grower or building your mycology skills professionally, our Premium Mushroom sawdust spawn and garden starter plant and grow blocks are crafted with precision to help you succeed.

We use top-quality raw materials, inoculated in front of HEPA-filtered laminar airflow, packaged in bags with 0.22 micron filter patches, ensuring your sawdust spawn and planter blocks arrive 100% clean and ready to grow.

All sawdust spawn is pressure-sterilized at 15-18 PSI and transferred directly to the innoculation bench, from our sterilization vessels for maximum sterility.

We stand by our sawdust spawn quality:

✅ 100% Clean Arrival Guarantee - if your sawdust spawn shows contamination due to our sterilization process, we’ll replace it.

* Note: While we guarantee our sawdust spawn is sterile when it leaves our lab, we cannot be held liable for courier mishandling after dispatch.
