countertop or tabletop and plug in the power supply.
Slide the water tray into the unit through the
opening on the left-side wall.
3 4
Twist off cap from the side tank, fill with water, and
secure the cap back on the tank.
5 6 Use the back side of this quick start guide to help
set the right environmental conditions.
Open the chamber door, slide the fan bracket up,
and place one (1) humidity filter inside the water tray.
Lower the fan bracket over the filter.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
preparation, then set fruiting blocks inside
chamber.
Make sure the
filter sits all the
way down into
the water tray with

PREPARING A FRUITING BLOCK

1Read manufacturer’s instructions for how to best
prepare your fruiting block for optimal growth.
Some blocks may require cutting an “X” in the
side of the bag or cutting the top off completely
before fruiting.
If no directions are given, cut an “X” as shown in
the image to the right and gently scrape the
substrate underneath the flaps of the“X” with a
clean fork before placing in Mella.
Spraying water on your fruiting blocks is not
required when using Mella.
2Each species of mushroom prefers different
environmental conditions to grow properly.
This may involve a bit of trial and error, but the
information below includes a few starting points for
you to begin growing mushrooms quickly!
Remember, the values below are for one (1) fruiting
block. Multiple fruiting blocks may require a change to
the settings.

Lights
Starting point: Setting 5-7
Mushrooms need at least a small amount of light for proper growth and color development.
We recommend that you have your lights on for at least 12 hours each day.
Humidity
Starting point: Setting 7-9
Mushrooms like humidity levels between 70-90%, though the specific level depends on the
mushroom variety. Mella can maintain relative humidity levels between approximately 60%
(setting 1) to approximately 90% (setting 10). Refer to the instructions from your fruiting block
supplier for specific guidance. If your mushrooms are dry or cracking, increase the humidity and
decrease the fresh air setting.
Fresh air
Starting point: Setting 4-6
Mella’s fan will automatically cycle on to bring fresh air into the chamber. This decreases
the CO2 concentration that naturally rises as mushrooms grow. If your mushrooms have
skinny stems or fruiting bodies, or their growth resembles coral, increase the fresh air.
