Commercial mushroom farm equipment
Boost profitability of your mushroom farm through automation

A modern mushroom farm needs mushroom growing equipment for six jobs: cultivation, harvesting, lighting, weighing, watering, and hygiene. The core mushroom cultivation tools are growing shelving, mushroom picking trolleys (also called picking lorries or harvesting carts), moisture-resistant LED lighting, mushroom scales, watering systems, plus accessories that improve ergonomics and worker safety. GrowTime supplies all of these as one integrated ecosystem, engineered to work together.

The cost of mushroom growing equipment depends mainly on the scale of cultivation and the scope of the investment. Key factors include: the area and number of growing rooms, the number and type of growing racks, the number of picking trolleys, the level of automation (manual vs. electric vs. hydraulic-electric harvesting), and whether you are building a new farm or modernizing an existing one. Automating harvesting pays back through higher output per picker and more yield per square metre, so every quote is prepared individually after we learn the specifics of your facility. Contact our representative for a tailored quote.

GrowTime delivers commercial mushroom growing equipment for a whole growing room from a single manufacturer — shelving, lighting and watering specified to work with each other and with our picking trolleys, so you are not integrating parts from three suppliers.

• LED lighting: heavy-duty, hermetic LED fixtures built for high-humidity rooms and washdowns, with a light spectrum that reduces picker eye fatigue.
• Watering systems: precision watering for even dosing across all shelf tiers, helping to avoid over-watering and casing-soil problems.

We produce and distribute top-class equipment for mushroom growing farms, including modern mushroom picking trolleys. Our headquarters and machinery factory are located in Grudziądz (Poland) at 21 Lotnicza Street.

Many years of experience in the mushroom growing industry and a team of qualified engineers allow us to effectively advise solutions that will increase the profitability of your mushroom growing farm in the long term.

We invite the owners of these mushroom growing farms who wish to increase their profitability and efficiency to familiarize themselves with our offer.

Mushroom farms choose GrowTime because we build our own mushroom cultivation tools in our own factory and stay responsible for them afterwards — engineering, service, and spare parts from the same source.

• Manufacturer, not a reseller – we design and build our equipment in our own factory in Grudziądz, Poland, giving us full control over quality and spare-part availability.
• Proven in over 20 countries – our solutions run in mushroom farms across Poland, the Netherlands, Italy, France, Romania, Ireland, the USA, Canada and more.
• In-house engineering team – we develop proprietary solutions and build prototypes tailored to a specific facility.
• Service and parts at manufacturer prices – technical support and continuous spare-part availability minimise the risk of downtime during peak flushes.

Automation increases mushroom farm profitability by raising how much one picker harvests per hour, without adding people to the payroll. Automated picking trolleys — the mushroom farming machinery at the centre of a modern harvest — raise harvesting efficiency by up to 25% per hour and add up to 1.5–2.5 kg of mushrooms per square metre through automatic, selective platform movement. Faster harvesting means flushes are picked before caps open and lose market grade, while better ergonomics reduces physical strain and lets the same team pick more. The result is higher output per picker, shorter harvesting time, and a faster return on investment – without hiring additional workers.

Which mushroom picking trolley should I choose?

The right trolley depends on the size of the farm, the type of growing racks, the number of workers, and the level of automation you need. For smaller or modernizing farms, the electric Newton is a strong choice. For farms focused on maximum efficiency, the hydraulic-electric, self-propelled Pascal is usually more suitable.

How can I increase mushroom harvesting efficiency without hiring more workers?

Efficiency improves by automating platform movement, giving easier access to lower and upper shelves, improving stand lighting, and weighing directly during picking. Electric and hydraulic-electric trolleys cut physical effort and shorten the time pickers need to reach mushrooms, raising output by up to 25%.

What equipment is needed to start a mushroom farm?

A mushroom farm typically needs growing shelving, picking trolleys, moisture-resistant lighting, scales, a watering system, plus nets, covers and harvesting accessories. The exact set of mushroom cultivation tools depends on farm size, number of growing rooms, and the level of automation.

What lighting works best in a humid mushroom farm?

Use hermetic, high-IP lamps that withstand room washdowns and high humidity. LED lighting reduces picker eye fatigue and improves the accuracy of selecting mushrooms ready for harvest.

Does GrowTime ship internationally?

Yes. We ship from Grudziądz, Poland, to customers in Poland and worldwide – our solutions operate in over 20 countries.
