I don’t normally write reviews but...
I’ve been ordering from Midwest for years and I feel the need to defend them as they had also experienced an issue that plagued almost all companies that sold spawn bags late fall of 2020. For anyone who doesn’t know, there is only one manufacturer of plastic spawn bags in the USA, the rest come from overseas. During fall of last year this company changed the material they make the white filters out of (due to Covid supply issues) and did not tell anyone. This change made the filters very fragile and simply touching the filter would break it down and allow bacteria to enter. This problem was plaguing all the online retailers and sellers on Etsy, EBay Amazon and more. I had the same issue after ordering from ShroomSupply and it was the same style spawn bag. You can look up any company and see reviews about them not sterilizing spawn bags and 1 star reviews. You can read about how the bag did nothing and turned to brown slime or smelled sour after a few days. I have been ordering from Midwest since 2016 and never once had an issue with their spawn bags until a period between August 2020- December 2020. It was very strange, some bags would do fine and others would do nothing. Midwest kindly replaced my faulty bags on all occasions and now I feel bad because it really wasn’t even their fault. It wasn’t until I started hearing about this manufacturing error on many of the forums that I contacted Midwest about and they also just found out too. The spawn bag maker even posted videos on YouTube and Instagram about it mid January. Midwest switched spawn bag suppliers in January and my last order including the replacements were perfect. The new bags they use are way better anyways. Much thicker plastic and crystal clear! I told Midwest they should post this info on their site. So thanks for reading and rest assured that any bag product ordered from Midwest now is back to their consistent quality and super fast shipping that is the reason I continue to do business with them.
