Home ecosystem for mushroom cultivation The cultivation of mushrooms at home, which has been gaining momentum with emerging global trends, requires very little conditions and tools. Currently, these include mostly disposable or improvised tools, like plastic buckets. The project sets out to produce a set of tools that will allow the growing process to take root in the kitchen – where the mushrooms are supposed to reach eventually. The material chosen for this purpose was clay – a common material in the domestic kitchen, whose properties contribute to beneficial growing conditions, namely increasing humidity and lowering the temperature. The system consists of growing receptacles, cultivation bags with mycelial growth, and manual tools for operating the system.
