Dude, I was reading the title and going like what? Who couldn't just get oysters from the store, dump it into agar or grain or newspaper and have them grow. Nice cover up for the legal strains bro.

I'm a bonafide newbie when it comes to growing mushrooms. When I tried this at the beginning of this year, I bought plug spawns to try and grow them on logs but also put the extra plugs in a plastic bag full of straws and some coffee grounds. The bag actually grew but it didn't produce a lot. Some of the logs also sprouted some mushrooms. But I had problems with green molds and gnats from then on. So that experiment had mediocre results.
This second attempt really turned out well. And I'm happy with it.

just because theres gree mold on the surface of the log doesnt mean it wont produce fruits, all of ours have mold on them and produce well, the mycelium is still below the bark eating the log itself..

Try 'em in a frittata with onions, garlic, bell peppers, and some feta cheese. Mmmmmm...

I made it! I think I added too many ingredients in it though since I could barely taste the mushroom (it also has pork meat and carrots in it). And I may have added too many eggs so it tasted more like an omelette to me. I'll try again with less eggs next time. Thanks again for the tips.

Aw that looks delicious! I wish I had some oysters now!
