Why do you say I live in the states ??? That was a big assumption outta no where
Do more shrooms lol JK !
This post was originally about this website:

So you might be talking about another company?????
One of the people who responded to your post was saying something about companies that sell mushroom growing kits to some states that make it illegal.... That's why I though you were in the US. Sorry about that.
Honestly, I don't work for this company, I live in Quebec City. I ordered their original "Mega You Grow" mushroom kit a while back. I had the same problem as you, it took several weeks to get here. It was the beginning of the pandemic and I guess they must have been busy, everybody was looking to keep busy at home during the pandemic and I think they got swamped with orders, I'm guessing because I don't really know why it took 3 weeks to get here. By the time it got here, I think the
Mycelium spawn in the seeds was a little ripe, I guess. With the shipping and everything, I think it was around $100. They inject seeds with spawn not sure if that's the right terms), then the mycelium grow inside and outside the seeds, which is what you use in the kit. Anyway, mine took a long time to get to me, then followed the instructions, but more than 3 months later, all I had was this white mold (mycelium), but no pinning, no mushrooms came up. So, I got pretty upset and I started posting on the internet and then a few weeks later they emailed me. Then they sent me the coco kit after hearing about my experience.
I never got nothing out of the first kit, even after patiently working on it, following all directions, for 3 months. It was a really bad experience. But, I think I figured out what went wrong. First, the mycelium spawn was a little dated because of the pandemic and the delay in the delivery. This stuff is alive and it has to be fresh and kept refrigerated until you "process" the kit to get it growing. The second thing I figured out is that there was a lot tiny little flies called fungus gnats, which are common in over watered plants. They lay their eggs in the soil and the tiny little larvae eat fungus and the roots and then they turn into little flies. I think my kit had both problems, the kit wasn't fresh and it may have accidentally been contaminated with fungus gnats, which would have fed on the mycelium, which is basically fungus right.
I received the second kit, this one is different, it's a coco kit. You just had boiling water and mix the whole thing, then when it cools down, you break up the seeds that have the fungus in it and mix it all up and dump it all in these 4 plastic containers. Then, you wait 12 days to 3 weeks with them in a dark place (closet), then you open the containers and put them in plastic bags under a light. It takes a lot longer than 2 weeks.
I know the site (
http://magicmushroomkit.ca/ ) is legitimate. They sent me the second kit for free, but several months later, I still don't have any shrooms, lol. In about another week, I'm going to take them out of the dark closet and follow the steps. I think it might take a while for them to pin and start producing mushrooms.
So, I'm not sure who told you a couple of weeks, but I don't think that's possible, more like at least a month or two. And you should know that in Canada, there are a lot of websites that will sell you the dried mushrooms by the gram and it's usually around like $15 a gram.
The website is legit, but growing shrooms isn't that simple, not for for me anyway, lol. I can grow some really good weed, but to be honest, it took me a long time to learn how to do that really well. Back then it was illegal and getting information on how to grow weed was like mission impossible, but then the books on how to grow weed finally became legal again and I really enjoyed growing it, even more than smoking it, they are such beautiful plants and if you know what you're doing and don't have any fungus gnat issues, they grow really fast, lol.
I can assure you that they are a legitimate site, but I think they are really busy because so many people are doing these kinds of projects to keep busy during the pandemic. When I ordered seeds for growing weed, it took more than two months before I finally got them, again because people were ordering like crazy during the pandemic. I was really pissed too, I thought I got ripped off. But, I eventually got the damn seeds, lol.
