Safety information
Safety Notice – Fungal Spores (Respiratory Tract)
Mature mushrooms release spores. Inhaling large quantities of spores can irritate the respiratory tract and lungs and, with repeated exposure, trigger allergic reactions or even exogenous allergic alveolitis ("Mushroom Worker's Lung").
• Allow to fruit in well-ventilated rooms; do not place in bedrooms or rooms used for extended periods.
• Harvest mushrooms just before they release their spores to reduce spore load.
• Sensitive or allergic individuals, those with pre-existing conditions, or those with continuous exposure: wear respiratory protection (FFP2/FFP3).
• Never consume contaminated or moldy cultures; dispose of the bag while closed and avoid stirring up or inhaling spores.
Usage and Hygiene Notice
Inoculate the substrate under as sterile conditions as possible (clean work surface, disinfected hands/tools) and only open the inoculation port immediately before inoculation. If the bag shows green, black, or otherwise discolored growth, has a sour/putrid odor, or contains patches of foreign mold, it is contaminated: do not continue to use, do not consume, and dispose of the bag while closed.
Right of withdrawal Sealed goods for hygiene reasons: The right of withdrawal expires once the seal has been removed or the injection port has been opened (§ 312g para. 2 no. 3 BGB). Details can be found in § 6 of the General Terms and Conditions.
