Zero success with purchased spawn. I have tried several times.

Variable success with mushroom growing kits. After complaining that a purchased kit produced no mushrooms, I was told that the kits soon 'go off'. Fresh kits coming into the shops around Nov/Dec I've had results with, those bought as end of line bargains I've had little success with.
