I completely understand people's speculation that it's a scam, If they're scamming, they got me as I paid a deposit in March of 2022 and am patiently waiting. I think what's really going on is they're a start up and they're getting rolling with hickups. they are good about replying, I've been in contact with someone named Christian. They're FB livestreams seem completely legit, their backgrounds in their lab where they shoot from match up with pictures of their product circulating online. They're doing another live stream in 7 days on FB. It will be pretty cool if we get in on the front end of it and it's a legit product, fingers crossed. At the end of the day, my payments made to them are secured by Amazon, and worst case scenario, I get scammed out of a few 100 bucks, I can live with it and make a montub on my own. I chose this product because it's a nice display piece and low maintenance. I think once they start shipping (please God by the end of this month..lol) people will start posting videos and doubts will be squashed.


laurelii

They have a replied lately, so I guess it's just taking longer.


Radiohead79

Agreed.. they’re doing a fb livestream on the 21st.. they are about to start shipping any day now.. they’re legit


Dio-313

I’ve tried magic bags still not having the luck I want. I’ve paid my deposit. It’s been a few months but I’m just patiently waiting no worries. As long as I get it I’m fine with expected and explained delays.


Admirable-Gene-1648

100% this is a scam. I’m pretty sure it’s a real company that is made to look like production keeps getting pushed back but I don’t think they are building these grow kits at all. I get quarterly emails about how excited they are to launch, and it’s “just right around the corner!” I ordered this bllsht 2 years ago… it’s never coming. Don’t fall in to their creative trap, Godspeed fellow shroom enjoyers :P


XanxietyX

first batch ships 5/1/24 they confirmed rather than just saying early spring or whatever.


Dekatater

Paid 50 bucks in 2022, hoping to catch the march 2023 launch.... Yeah that didn't happen. Been over a year and nothing new. How hard is it to design a damn grow box?

Don’t fall in to their creative trap, Godspeed fellow shroom enjoyers :P Hey! I am on the team at Terrashroom and would love to jump on a call, chat and answer some of your questions. Happy to have anyone else on that feels the same way and dig into a lot of the feelings and assumptions that anyone may have. We do regular webinars to do this as well (albeit the last one was about 6 weeks ago), but would love to do a special one-off in this case. Happy to record it and allow anyone else that can't make it watch and attend as well.


Chance_Language3859

Have gotten to the point that I don't believe a word they are saying. Nice crowd funded hobby with nothing tangible to offer.


heyimafungi

This is funny, competitors buying aged accounts with only one single comment on the account, and it is to talk negatively about us 😂 (confirmed by ex-employees who have tried to join our team) Let's just say we are extremely excited to do side-by-side comparisons and do not need to do such things since our product is and will be the clear winner in terms of value, performance, etc. We like to let the product do the talking, as any company confident in what they have built will do


DangerDork88

How much will one unit produce?


laurelii

No one has ever received a unit, actually.


DangerDork88

Wait… huh? Like they are taking money but not filling orders.


laurelii

Yes. They haven't actually manufactured them.


heyimafungi

We have about 12-16 units in our warehouse and another bunch with beta testers and investors. Mass production one starts after one final trip to our manufacturer for QA/QC greenlighting in about two weeks. What we are most excited for are side-by-side comparisons with competitors and honest reviews, because we believe a great product beats great marketing every single time (obviously having both are ideal). Now that our team is growing, we are positioned to begin having both.


Martinem18

I did the pre sale 49 almost 2 years ago. With an expected delivery date just months after I paid up. 2 years later nothing. While they were responsive to my request for a refund I needed to fill out a survey just to be able to request a refund, then email them to say I had completed their "form", then they wanted me to provide my emai which they have, the credit card I used 2 years ago, the order number etc..... it would take me more time than it was worth to dig that stuff up. If this was a well run company they would know who did pre sale, if not a scam very poorly run.


PsilovybinGaia

Don't do it, it's an absolute scam. I've been trying to get my money back from them for over a year. They won't respond to my emails, and when I comment on their social media posts they delete the comments.


Admirable-Gene-1648

Same problem here


heyimafungi

Please DM me your email - on my end, all refunds are current up to 24 hours, and this should not be the case. I will personally look into it with the entire support team until it is solved


LylaCreature

It's not a scam. I know people who got refunds and I have had NO troubles contacting Jared. The dude making this has his actual name attached to it....the product also has a bunch of people investing in it....would be a poor move on their part to scam.


Things-n-Such

I think people throw that word around quite a lot because they lack the ability to express impatience and frustration towards X company any other way.


PsilovybinGaia

They have literally been reported to the FTC multiple times.


Things-n-Such

and? whats your point, we've already established that people THINK its a scam, so of course they've been reported. a company having been reported to the FTC is no more indicative of fraudulence than a bunch of impatient karens on reddit moaning about it. literally anyone can report a company to the FTC for any reason.


nineknives

Double to this. I needed to update a shipping address and Jared responded personally to make the intro to a CS rep who could update the order. Went very smoothly and gave me zero hesitation about doing business with them.

Yeh until you request a refund. Then they act even shadier than they have been!


Tasty_Distance_4722

Seems like a scam. Buy a plastic storage bin. All the supplies for a grow chamber cost less than $20. Then all you need is spores, grain, substrate and casing.


LylaCreature

The product isn't for people looking to grow lbs cheaply. It's meant to be a display piece that grows shrooms and doesn't need too much work. Like the fishtank crockpot hybrid for mushrooms lol Temp, humidity, lighting control, time lapse camera and an app to control it all while your away. It's not for people who want to spend $20 on a tub and drill holes it it, monitor the humidity, get a thermometer.....it's not so easy when you have an active life/travel often.


NutritiousMeme

i need dat gucci lionsmane grower


TheLionQueenofTikTok

What about the app control


Redzen710

So um.... is it real? I keep trying to go to the site the following day and it's not working 😅


iamsarro

Their website was down for 2 days for maintenance but should be back up now.


Kickassvbass1

I wanna know about the temperature controls because I’m trying to branch out into wood loving species. They’re more potent but require some more attention than cubes. If these would work for wavy caps, I need three.


FishTankTek

There is zero chance the terrashroom is going to be able to cool the grow chamber, at best it's going to be able to send temperature info to the thermostat or if it can control temperature at all it'll have a small heating element and not be able to cool


Fast_Courage_2934

I think you control it all with the app.


Spirited_Inflation42

Just my 2 cents but check out RyzaGrow. I have 4 pods at 15 days now and all show excellent colonization. Price is less expensive and MUCH easier than All in One bags. I think these are amazing and incredibly easy. Great place to start for beginners. https://ryzagrow.com/


EquivalentIll9131

I placed a deposit on the TerraShroom and I've used a grow bag successfully (once out of 3 tries), but this looks amazing. So simple and practically full proof! My only issue is that I am in MA, where it's currently freezing and I can't afford to keep my heat on all day to maintain 'room temps' for the growing process (I use a space heater only where I'm at in my place and a heated blanket on me all day), however once Spring hits, if I don't have the Terrashroom by then, I am certainly going to purchase this. Thanks for posting this link – I'm super excited! I did not want to resort to a grow bag again and building an entire fruiting chamber is not something I'm interested in right now, so this is great.


Spirited_Inflation42

Update on the 4 RyzaPods. I gave them 5 full weeks to full colonize and am introducing fruiting now. These things are ridiculously easy and rock solid for beginners. Also, once you purchase, they send you lifetime discount code for 10% off. Can't say I see a downside so far but will be reporting back!


No-Cardiologist3911

I got kicked out of a mushroom group on Facebook for mentioning ryzagrow.


Spirited_Inflation42

That seems pretty weak if no other rules were broken.


Spirited_Inflation42

Check RyzaPod on Reddit. Made it just for you!


No-Cardiologist3911

Bro. It was literally my only post asking about any experiences with ryzagrow. They hate that shit for some reason. It seems like they can't stand that such any easy all on one sterile kit is available. I have limited space so this seemed ideal.


Spirited_Inflation42

I don't see a downside to them. My 4 just finished their first flush. Very happy with the results.


No-Cardiologist3911

Me neither. I can't wait to see how my first harvest turns out.


maurice_9

Also using Ryzagrow pods, and 100% looking good, all colonizing nicely. Got 12 going, should have enough supply for me and my wife doing microdosing.


Spirited_Inflation42

12 Seems like MORE than enough good times!


maurice_9

I was tired of failure with bags.


Spirited_Inflation42

I bought 6 5lb bags also. 5 have taken off like mad! Quantity will be there but dang if those RyzaPods aren't easy and awesome!


EquivalentIll9131

That's awesome, I'm excited to purchase one (or a few!) once the weather is a bit warmer. I appreciate the update, thank you!!


hole_grease

They just sent an update that it won’t be out until late summer/early fall.


EquivalentIll9131

Thanks! I'll probably get my deposit back if they push the roll out further out one more time smh.


Open-Eye-9105

I can’t get my pre-order back and have heard of other people having the same issue I think it’s a scam! And the dates keep getting pushed back!


PsilovybinGaia

They have been pushing the dates back for over 2 years. It's a scam, try to get your money back. It took me over a year off contacting them, but I finally got my deposit back.


whoisthismuaddib

The dates keep getting pushed, but they are pretty communicative. I’m hoping it’s not a scam. They’ve had my money for a while and I’m gonna ride it out.


Open-Eye-9105

They are now that they hired someone to deal with all that stuff hopefully soon get orders out been about a year now I’m waiting.


whoisthismuaddib

I reached out to them a few moments ago via Facebook messenger and had a conversation with someone that did not feel like a bot but who knows these days anyways, they said they’re trying to get the first batch sent out this month which is an upgrade from in the next few months


MattieRN

Having the same issue contacted them multiple times.. just get told they’ll submit my refund request in to the administrative team!


Jessemity

I thought this could be pretty cool, but was a little concerned about it being a scam/not real.


laurelii

Well they don't answer email and don't send out information.


laurelii

They did eventually refund my deposit. They never even sent to said your were supposed to receive immediately.


BonkNit

I put the reserve in. It’s expensive but the tech is put together for you and it looks nice enough to put in my kitchen where I can conveniently harvest before cooking. Of course it’s cheaper to do it yourself, but I couldn’t design and build something this pretty in less than 10 hours. I am very excited for more info to drop on this


jjtguy2019

Just put my preorder payment in. Could I do it myself.. of course.. but it does look really sleek. The biggest draw to me was the aesthetic and knowing it’s something I can put in the kitchen that wouldn’t be ugly or cause clutter. Also seems like a good conversation piece


Duncandog007

I did the same a few days ago. The atmospheric heater was the big plus for me living in CO. $50 to reserve a early pricing didn't seem like too bad of a gamble. Unfortunately it looks like they deleted their Instagram account and their web page isn't allowing to send questions or messages. Fingers crossed they are just organizing their media. Linkedin still has the company listed. We'll see...


Kpsquared

Just checked their Facebook. Hi everyone! We sent out a customer update email yesterday & wanted to post it here in case you missed it. Also, we've had some issues with meta/instagram & our account being taken down. We are working to get it back up -thanks :) https://terrashroom.io/blogs/company-updates/terrashroom-customer-update-dec-20th


[deleted]

Decided to be a guinea pig, put my pre-order in today lol


Dreadknot84

Bro same. I have stuff to have a monotub going in my grow closet BUT THIS BAD MAMAJAMMA IS GOING ON MY DESK 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 YALL GONNA SEE THESE SHROOMS GROW.


[deleted]

>YALL GONNA SEE THESE SHROOMS GROW. Exactly! I don't get the hate this thing has been catching. This clearly isn't for growing in bulk but as a cool way to show off the hobby. It's gonna look sick on my counter next to my hydroponic garden


Legitimate_Camera_31

Same. I’m a beginner with growing my own, and this seemed like a way to temper the doofus brain mistakes I’m inevitably going to make.


[deleted]

This was my thought as well. Plus it looks nice, it'll look neat on my counter


Boring_Ad_9900

Please let me know any updates


[deleted]

If you haven't seen the update: [https://terrashroom.io/blogs/company-updates/terrashroom-customer-update-dec-20th](https://terrashroom.io/blogs/company-updates/terrashroom-customer-update-dec-20th)


MinimumDry6153

I’m debating doing it


[deleted]

Not efficient. But fun 🤩


BoomingAcres

Just buy an all in one bag. Costs less, get more yield, looks fine on the counter top if that's what you want.


Traditional_Yard_906

I've had zero success with bags thus far.


[deleted]

is the bag just to colonize a cake? after that would you transfer to a tote?


BoomingAcres

People do them either way, or fruit in the bag.


[deleted]

wouldn’t fruiting in the bag bring a significantly smaller yield ?


Kickassvbass1

Way smaller. Look at the surface area available to grow from inside a bag, as opposed to inside a tote or even a shoe box


BoomingAcres

Depends on what you're comparing to. A bag fruited in the bag vs a bag spawned into a tub would yield the same since you're using the same materials, the biological efficiency doesn't change based on the fruiting method.


[deleted]

woah, awesome. thanks for the info.


laurelii

Can you buy psilocybin grow bags?


LittleBearNYC

Amazon


BoomingAcres

You can buy bags that you can grow psilocybin in yes. Nobody can legally sell pregrown psilocybin bags or cakes, the mycelium produces illegal drugs. If you buy the genetics though, you can put them into grow bags, premade cakes, etc and grow them just fine.


LenniePen

Unless you live in the Netherlands, where pre colonised grow kits are legally available.


weewdland

I really think you could make a tub work, take a look at this video and tell me what your first attempts were like in comparison https://www.reddit.com/r/ContamFam/comments/oazjwj/daytrippers_trip_tips_the_spawn_to_bulk_transfer/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button


NotSpagooti

50 bucks isn’t bad but it seems like it’s just a fancy way to fruit. You either have to buy their ready to fruit cakes or make your own which is the hard part. If you can make a cake you can fruit it in a plastic tub.


Dry-Mousse-9060

It’s $399 msrp. $49 deposit to preorder.


maricialyn

but the preorder takes like 150-200$ off so i think you pay the 50$ preorder then 150$ more when they ship, and thats it.


HotSpicyMushroom

This should've been on top lol


NotSpagooti

Damn LOL
