Oyster problems ? la MushMushi!
    #1167809 -

Heh... I had problems with straw then with coffee grounds, so this time, I`m attempting to fruit the oyster from the jars.
I have inoculated rye grain and the mycelium grows on the jars sides. I mist everyday and I believe it is humid enough (I don`t have a hygrometer *yet*). It also has light. But still, no primordia...
I hope this is not another failure  :frown:

The bag is in my room (normal light, maybe too close to the window) at 16-18 degrees celsius...

By the way, there is only 3/4 of grain of the total jar capacity.
I would appreciate any advices/hints/bitching/etc

This is p. ostreatus, if I remember correctly?

It's a bit warm, according to Stamets you want 10-15.6c (not sure why you shows the upperside so exact!).

Maybe give 'em a coldshock? As for light, knowing where you live, I'd say the light is fine even by the window. Unless you happen to be getting more direct sun than me right now :wink:

You're doing well. You're very close. Don't give up! :smile:

It may look like a button mushroom right now, but wait until you see how it grows!

Also, don't forget a bit of air exchange....this becomes very important when fruit start forming, otherwise you'll get nasty corel-like fruit.

:laugh:
Well, I have cold shocked it for 20 hours. It is still growing and it smells good. But still no formation of primordia... I guess I should wait hehe
Do you think it could fruit from such a small quantity of grains?

Ohh by the way, the mycelium looks so nice, I have never seen something like that before!
:grin:
