First blue oyster grow. Are these ready to pick?
    #19395617 - 01/09/14 07:48 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I have grown grey oysters a few times inside my house.  I recently turned a 100 sq ft shed into a grow room.  I wanted to try my luck with kings and blues in the shed, so I did a bag of each as a test run.  Kings failed... but this is a picture of my blue oysters that I hope to sell at my local farmers market.  I have never grown blue oysters before, but these look like they are almost ready.  Should I go ahead and pick them or wait another 1 or 2 days?

Thanks for  your help.

those look awesome!  what substrate did u use?  one of mine stalled, the room was way to dry in winter



I'm no expert, but i would say pick the bottom left cluster and the top right one.  maybe someone can correct me here, but i remember reading something about picking oysters before they sporulate for allergy reasons...?

Thanks.  I used cottonseed hulls, but it took forever to start fruiting.  I plan on mixing the cottonseed hulls with straw next time.
