LYKYN Launches the First Consumer-Ready Smart Mushroom Grow Chamber -- Making Home-Grown Mushrooms Easier Than Ever

After years of failed crowdfunding attempts, mushroom enthusiasts finally have a reliable, elegant, and fully functional chamber for growing both functional and culinary mushrooms at home.

SANTA ROSA, Calif., Aug. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The mushroom movement is booming. From functional varieties like Lion's Mane and Reishi for mental wellness to culinary favorites like Oyster and Shiitake, demand for mushrooms is at an all-time high. Yet while consumers have been eager to grow their own, previous attempts to bring smart grow chambers to market through crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter left backers disappointed. Projects such as Terrashroom and Shrooly failed to deliver, leaving a gap in trust across the mushroom community.

LYKYN has set out to change that. After two years of development and testing, the company has launched the first consumer-ready smart mushroom grow chamber — a fully realized, app-connected device that eliminates the complexity of mushroom cultivation and is already available for purchase today.

Restoring Trust in Smart Mushroom Growing
Rather than relying on prototypes or crowdfunding campaigns, LYKYN invested heavily in creating a finished product before launch. The chamber is built to address the needs of real growers:

• Smart Automation: Integrated sensors and a connected app control humidity, fresh air exchange, and lighting cycles.
• Ease of Use: Simply add water, place a pre-inoculated mushroom block, select the mushroom type in the app, and watch it grow.
• Designed for Living Spaces: Compact, collapsible for efficient shipping, easy to assemble, and minimal in design — an appliance that looks as elegant as it is functional.
• Sized for Success: Fits large mushroom blocks commonly sold online, ensuring strong yields and reliable harvests.

Functional Wellness Meets Culinary Sustainability
The LYKYN chamber empowers anyone to grow mushrooms that support both personal health and food sustainability.

• Functional Mushrooms for Mental Health: Grow Lion's Mane, Reishi, and Cordyceps to support focus, clarity, mood, and overall wellness.
• Culinary Mushrooms for the Kitchen: Enjoy Oyster, Shiitake, and King Trumpet mushrooms fresh from home, regardless of season or grocery store availability.
• Sustainable & Transparent: Reduce food miles, packaging waste, and reliance on supply chains while knowing exactly how your food is grown.
• A Beautiful Process: Watching mushrooms fruit at home is as rewarding as the harvest itself.
