GIANT PUFFBALL MUSHROOM GROWING KIT. OVER 1 BILLION SPORES – Calvatia gigantea!

July 8, 2026

PERFECT FOR FALL PLANTING! GIANT PUFFBALL MUSHROOM GROWING KIT. OVER 1 BILLION SPORES – Calvatia gigantea. Shipped with USPS First Class Package. Hey guys! This Calvatia gigantea growing kit is designed for cultivation of these amazing tasty giants in an outdoor environment. The kit is very simple to use. I will send more details and tips to up your chances of success along with each order. Here’s the quick version of how it can work. You will just need a clean container that can hold 4 gallons of water. Then you simply add the spores, molasses and salt ( included with each order ) to the water and mix . Then let it sit for 48 hours. Then simply pour on the ground in an area that you would want to try your luck. If you only have a grass yard to work with you can still have success. Well fetilized grass yards are known to support the growth of these giants. I believe it is because Calvatia Gigantea is possibly a mycorrhizal fungi. The scientific community doesn’t seem to agree how to classify this fungi in the way it feeds, but I will share my thoughts in the instructions I send. I have grown many types of mushrooms using different techniques successfully. This will be my first try at growing these with this technique and I’m very excited about it. I will be updating this listing with my results next fall. So join in the fun and anticipation and try your luck! I would love to hear your results, so keep in touch! I will include my email address with the instructions. P.S. If you wonder if you’re really getting 1 billion spores, these mushrooms can have 5 to 7 trillion spores. The specimen that I harvested these spores from was mid sized and for sure had way over a trillion spores. I separated it into 70 bags. So just saying it had 1 trillion, that calculates to 14 billion spores per bag on the low end. Its more likely double that. Also for some reason people are unaware that these are edible and taste great. Just only eat them when the inside is white. Once it starts turning yellow that means the spore production has started . Happy growing guys! let me know if you have any questions and keep me posted! I’M going to make this happen for sure and you can to!

Spores from invasive mushroom can come in your crop if not careful. Chanterelle Mushroom (Cantharellus cibarius) Chanterelle is the common name of fungi in the genus Cantharellus. They are among the most popularly eaten species of wild mushrooms. They are orange, yellow or white, meaty and funnel-shaped. On the lower surface, underneath the smooth cap, most species have gill-like ridges that run almost all the way down its stipe, which tapers down seamlessly from the cap. Many species emit a fruity aroma, reminiscent of apricots, and often have a mildly peppery taste. Chanterelles are relatively high in vitamin C (0.4 mg/g fresh weight), very high in potassium (about 0.5%, fresh weight), and are among the richest sources of vitamin D known, with ergocalciferol (vitamin D2) as high as 212 IU/100 grams fresh weight. Scientific research has suggested that the golden chanterelle may have potent insecticidal properties that are harmless to humans and yet protect the mushroom body against insects and other potentially harmful.

Welcome you to Smartbuyforever! We are a leading Seeds provider for many years! We provide fresh and high-quality Heirlooms seeds, NON-GMO and organic seeds to home gardeners and other’s Growers! Our main offerings: Hundreds of heirloom, rare, beautiful flowers and Herbs and Vegetables seeds. Especially we provide hard to find Herb and flowers seeds! Common German Chamomile produces tiny daisy-like flowers that smell like apples. It can be used for a relaxing fine flavored tea that can be enjoyed during the winter months beside the crackling fireplace while reading a good book. German chamomile, the variety preferred for making tea, originates in southern and eastern Europe; it has a distinctive apple/pineapple like scent. Ancient authorities such as Hippocrates and Galen wrote of the medical benefits of chamomile, and it remains a popular and effective herbal remedy in modern times. As a tea or infusion, chamomile gives a feeling of relaxation and drowsiness, making it an excellent treatment for insomnia or anxiety. Because of the herb's antiseptic, anti-inflammatory properties, skin preparations including chamomile benefit conditions such as eczema, rashes, or insect bites. The dried flowers and leaves also make a sweet scented addition to sachets or potpourri. Growing Instructions Sowing: In short growing seasons, chamomile can be started inside; start the common German chamomile seeds in a flat 2-3 weeks before the last spring frost date, and transplant them after the last frost. This herb prefers full sun or partial shade in sandy or well drained soil. For direct sowing, plant the Matricaria Recutita seeds 1/4″ deep in rows 18″ apart, thinning to 6-8″ apart as soon as the seedlings appear. Germination should take place within 1-2 weeks. German Chamomile also grows well as a container plant. Growing: Chamomile prefers cool temperatures and can tolerate light frost. Keep the soil moist while the seedlings are still developing, and control weeds to promote the plants' strong growth. Harvesting: Harvest chamomile as needed as soon as it reaches a desirable size. For the best flavored tea, harvest the chamomile flower heads in the morning as soon as they open. Spread them out to dry for about 2 weeks in a very dry, warm place out of direct sunlight. Store the flower heads in an airtight container. Seed Saving: Chamomile easily reseeds itself, but the seed can easily be collected. Remove the flower heads when they dry up on the stem; spread them out to finish drying in a protected location out of direct sunlight. Thresh the heads to remove the common German chamomile seeds, and store it in a cool dry place for 3-4 years. Common Names: Italian Camomilla, Hungarian Chamomile, Kamilla, Wild Chamomile or Scented Mayweed Latin Name: Matricaria recutita Type: Open Pollinated, Heirloom, Cool Season Life Cycle: Annual USDA Zones: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 Planting Method: From Transplant Sunlight: Full Sun Height: 24 Inches Color: Green, White Bloom Season: Blooms Early Summer, Blooms Late Summer Uses: Aromatic Free Shipping: All orders are shipped by USPS First Class Mail.

We only ship in the U.S.************* Please read full listing before purchasing ************* Growing Bamboo from Seed Place the bamboo seeds in a strainer and rinse them with cool water to remove any dust or debris that may be clinging to the seeds. Pour the seeds into a bowl. Make a 10 percent salt solution and pour it over the seeds. Let the seeds soak in this solution for five minutes. Pour the seeds back into the strainer and rinse off the salt solution. Soak the seeds in clear water for 15 minutes, and drain them to dry. Make a half-and-half mixture of perlite and peat moss. Moisten the mixture until you can grab a handful and just barely squeeze out a drop. Place the soil mixture in a flat planter box with a lid. A plastic sweater box with holes poked in the bottom is the ideal size and shape for this project. Draw rows in the soil mix about 1 inch deep and plant a sprinkling of seeds along each row. Alternately, dig a round hole 2 inches across and 1 inch deep. Sprinkle about 10 seeds in the bottom of the hole. Cover the surface of the mix with these holes. Cover the seeds with very fine soil mix. Place the lid on the box and move the box to a spot where it won’t be disturbed. Remove the lid every three days to give the plants fresh air. Moisten the soil mix during this time if it has begun to dry out. Replace the lid after you have watered the mix. Remove the lid permanently after the seedlings reach the lid inside. The first seedlings will sprout after two to three weeks, and the seeds will continue to sprout until they have all emerged. Mix an all-purpose houseplant fertilizer according to the package directions. Pour the fertilizer into a clean spray bottle and mist the plants once they are four weeks old. Transplant the seedlings into individual pots after they have been growing for a month. Use the same soilless mix for growing the seedlings indoors.

Buyers should do their own research for plant uses if needed.

This is normal. Several months will be needed for some seed. Some seeds require some experience in growing. We provide germination guidance and recommend that you do some research before ordering if you feel unsure. Growing plants from seed is supposed to be fun.
