FAQs
These trays are specifically engineered to be a perfect fit for the Midwest Grow Kits Mushroom Ecosphere 3.0. Two trays fit side-by-side on each shelf, maximizing the efficiency of your growing space.
Absolutely. They are made from double-thickness aluminum, making them far more durable than standard retail trays. With proper cleaning and care, they can be used for many successful growing cycles.
Each tray is designed to hold the ideal ratio for bulk grows: one colonized spawn bag or 32oz jar mixed with 5 pounds of bulk substrate.
For best results, clean the trays between uses with mild soap and water. Before starting a new cycle, sanitize them with a food-grade sanitizer like isopropyl alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.
While optimized for the Ecosphere, their generous size makes them a great upgrade for other bulk growing methods, including various monotub kits that require a durable, flat base for substrate.
