6.2 Water Refill Alerts

The water level sensor will alert you via the E-paper display when the reservoir needs refilling. Promptly add clean, distilled or filtered water to maintain optimal humidity.

6.3 Harvesting Mushrooms

Mushrooms are typically ready for harvest when their caps are fully developed but before they begin to flatten or release spores. The device may provide an estimated harvest window. To harvest, gently twist and pull the mushrooms from the pod at their base. Avoid leaving stubs, as this can hinder subsequent flushes.
