looking good man!! is that one of those grow kits? only asking cause the staples on the top look like one my dad has and that little spray bottle he got with the kit looks like the one in the pic.

i keep mine in open air also, just a fogger humidifier near it. mist the shit out of it every time u remember. i let mine go a full day one time with no misting and this happened

Holy shit! You can fruit oysters in open air?!? Damn I have to try this! I can have them in my kitchen and I'll just pick them right off the brick when I'm hungry. Om nom nom.

Yeah it's the same kit,lol..it was given to me recently.. I am going to produce a spore syringe from this and begin ms inoculations leading into isolations on agar...then once I have a library of cultures I'm going to produce large straw logs and test them for remediation properties...

sounds awesome! i'd guess it to be an isolate as is now, but u mean u want to get an ms project going to see what the different isolates from that MS can do with bioremediation?
man thats dedication!
yes u can fruit in open air, but like the above pic, be very careful when they are maturing because edges can and will crack if Rh not optimal. when they are pins, frequent misting seems to be enough till they get to the size in the OP. Forrester is awesome at doing edibles/oysters he will have way more info. i have only just begun oysters like 2 months ago, so I'm hesitant to even give advice, just anecdotal/experience reports from my own projects

That's pretty cool, maybe I'd hang them over the sink and keep the basin full so the water would evaporate up and towards the brick... Or maybe I'll just stick with my greenhouse since I just spent so much money building it. Lol, if my greenhouse ever gets full I'll have to try it.

Fruited in open air, straw logs. One of my first goes with goldies, I didn't have room in my GH at the time so I just cut slits and let em go.
Make sure to put plastic wrap over the top to trap some humidity, give them a misting every day, maybe twice depending on how dry your air is. Exchange the air under there every so often, you can see mine are stretching out a bit, but the RH is good.
edit: hey nakor, why did you buy a kit? Just get some hardwood fuel pellets and filter patch bags, plus some wheat bran too. Tek in my sig.

This is cool cause my mom offered me an interesting bucket thing for growing mushrooms out of and I thought, this would be awesome if I could fruit them in the open as a decoration. Well I guess you can!

Shiitake logs are pretty neat (and delicious) decorations. You can make them easily with plug spawn or order them already colonized for pretty cheap.

Not my idea, it's an old-school technique. RR mentions it in one of his videos. It works great in lieu of a proper FC

Decorations for inside I assume? It's been 15 below recently so I don't think any fungus would make it out there right now unfortunately. Haha.
