Description

Chocolate Oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) Gourmet. Wood-loving Species โ€“ Side fruiting. Fruiting temp: 12ยฐ-22ยฐC

These are spawn bags and not fruiting kits, spawn bags are prepared very differently and is not ideal to fruit from the bag.

Upon arrival, remove the bag from the box and unfold it to ensure the white filter patch is fully exposed, as this is where the mycelium breathes. Allow the bag to rest for 3โ€“5 days in a location away from direct sunlight and airflow.

Use our Sawdust spawn for outdoor garden beds, it provides up to 1000 times more inoculation points than grain spawn, promising even and swifter colonisation in the long run. Sawdust spawn is preferred over grain spawn for outdoor cultivation as birds and insects tend to eat the grain before they have time to colonise your garden.

The sawdust spawn can be used for garden bed, to inoculate logs and to grow mushrooms in the bucket.

 

Key Features-

Lag Period: Lag period is when mycelium encounters unfamiliar food , when transferring sawdust spawn to logs, there is no lag period as you are going from wood to wood.
