    Mushroom grow tracking apps compared

    This page compares Hypha with 6 other apps mushroom growers use to track their grows: Kinoko, MycoFile, MycoHub, Mycro, SpawnLog and TurboBatch. No one app is best for every grower. They differ most in platforms, free plans, pricing and who each is built for.

    We make Hypha. Each other app's details come from that company's own website and store listings, checked between October 19, 2026 and November 9, 2026. Prices and features change, so check each app's own pages before you decide.
