Description
Grow your own delicious blue oyster mushrooms effortlessly with the beginner-friendly, USDA-certified organic Mushroom Kit – Blue Oyster. This kit is designed to make the process easy and enjoyable—simply open the front of the box, cut an “X” in the plastic, and spray with water 2-3 times daily. Within days, you'll witness the transformation as mushrooms begin to grow! Known for their velvety texture and mild, savory flavor, blue oyster mushrooms make a perfect addition to any recipe. Adding depth to everything from pasta to stir-fries.
With proper care, these kits often yield multiple flushes of mushrooms, meaning you can enjoy harvests beyond the first crop. The blue oyster kits are known for producing large, beautiful clusters of mushrooms in shades ranging from light grayish-brown to deep blue-gray when kept at the right humidity.
The kit is incredibly reliable and includes a fully colonized, amended sawdust block where the mushroom mycelium has taken root. You might notice a white, mold-like covering on the block—this is actually the mycelium! It's a normal part of the growing process and is key to producing mushrooms. Blue oyster mycelium is especially active, making it easy for beginners to get multiple harvests. We guarantee your first flush and encourage you to keep caring for the kit.
To get started, simply slice an 'X' into the plastic, fill the included sprayer with water, and mist your kit daily. Place it in a humid area of your home, such as the kitchen counter near the sink, and keep it out of direct sunlight. The mycelium will begin to “pin”—a term for baby mushrooms—within 5-14 days. As soon as the pins appear, keep an eye on them. They will grow rapidly in the right environment, and your mushrooms will be ready for harvest in just 2-5 days after pinning.
With the Mushroom Kit – Blue Oyster, you can enjoy the satisfaction of growing fresh, organic mushrooms at home. It’s a fantastic way to learn about fungi, get hands-on with sustainable food production, and add a delicious ingredient to your kitchen. This easy-to-use kit brings a touch of nature indoors, offering both enjoyment and fresh flavor with every harvest!
