Oysters on straw
    #8751657 - 08/10/08 04:02 AM (15 years, 7 months ago)

Chopped barley straw was sanitized in a hydrated lime bath (1 lb Ca(OH)2 in 100 lbs water at 40°C(104°F)) for 2 hours, then drained, let cool to 25°C, inoculated with ~10% warm weather oyster mushroom spawn on birdseed, packed in plastic bags, then around 20 holes were punctured in the bag with a pencil. The bags were put in a cellar, at ~18°C(65°F) and ~70°RH.
After around 14 days fruits emerged.

They look great, really decent sized clusters forming there. What's the latin name for the warm weather oyster?

Thanks, that goes by a few different names it seems. Would higher relative humidity be better or is 70% fine?

70 seems fine, but a little higher wouldn't hurt I guess.

Thats great I guess I will be stabbing my ice cream tub with a pencil rather than cutting X's into it.

Anno how deep did you poke holes through the bag into the sub, or did you just poke holes into the bag?

Actually yes, I added a spoonful of bio degradable dish washing liquid to the tub to help with the hydration.

Hard to tell, I didn't weigh the straw, it was a big pillow full, perhaps 6 or 7 pounds of straw and the tub was around 1o gallons.

Thanks Anno!  I have tried this with cubes before with good results, but the mixture was pretty crude at the time (because of lack of knowledge) and I just used room temp water. The higher temperature water works better huh? Kinda like if you heat bleach water and it bleaches faster.  I think I will attempt it on some oysters myself this week for a few new bags of Pink's. Firing up the old barrel can be quite a chore sometimes!
