Misleading at best
I found this to be misleading at best.
When I read the following:
“GROWS YEAR ROUND: The Organic Mushroom Growing Kit works year 'round in any city - Spring, Summer, Fall or Winter! “
It sure sounds like this product will grow as long as you can keep it going. NOWHERE in the product description provided by the seller does it come close to stating there are exactly TWO growing cycles, one per side.
That’s not anywhere close to “grows year round”. They need to change that lie to “Can start any time of the year” and then just as clearly, announce the limited growing periods.
If I can buy mushrooms at the store for $5 and this costs $20, I clearly need four cycles just to break even. This costs twice as much as store bought. Simply not worth it to me.
And frankly, I’d like my money back because that’s another promise the seller makes. I’m not holding my breath on it though.
And should the seller read this and try to tell me it is stated in the FAQ section, well, that’sa response to consumer questions. I don’t read the potential hundreds of questions and answers on every product I purchase to see if an answer there is different than what they said elsewhere. I look there for things like adapter and the seller hasn’t survived a cable length. Here, the seller says “grows year round” and that’s simply not true.
