There's nice little kits you can buy online for your kitchen. :)

Those don't have very good reputations among growers. Bunch of crap you don't need, and the stuff you do need is garbage quality.

Nah, but they're easy for laymen. If you've got links to affordable kits for beginners pls share.

Edit: How could I forget. One of my favourite physical food stands at a public market I used to go to sells kits online. They're good people.

In my experience, they are quite poor in producing anything worthwhile. Look up the Uncle Ben's Tek. 90 minute mycology or The Rookie Mycologist have great guides for this, and they're easy to follow. I've gotten amazing results so far.
