Grow Kits

Once your fruiting block is completely white it is fully colonized and ready for fruiting conditions.

 

All you need to do is provide the optimal conditions for the mushrooms to develop:

Light

While direct sunlight is not a good idea, some indirect or shaded light is needed for the fruitbodies to form properly. They don’t gain energy from the light, so an indirect lighting source or shaded windowsill will be sufficient.

 

Fresh Air

In the wild Oyster mushrooms are used to growing out of a stump or log in fresh oxygen rich air. Providing a 3inch slit or hole in your bag will signal to the mycelium that there is a space to grow out from.

 

Humidity

Spray with water twice a day to keep the substrate hydrated and the environment in which the mushrooms are developing humid. This will encourage the mushrooms to form and stop them from drying out as they develop.

 

Temperature

This is specific to each strain, but generally most Oyster mushroom strains are not too fussy about what temperature they will grow at. They will form best in the range of 50 - 70F.

 

Time

Within 7 days you should start seeing tiny mushroom pins forming out of the hole.

 

In the following 5-7 days you will witness these baby mushrooms double in size every day (keep spraying twice a day to maintain the humidity as they grow).
