I have a bag full of pasteurized straw and a bag full of colonized grain. This thread was exactly what I was looking for. thanks for giving the OP advice people (even if you did give him a hard time first). As a teacher, i'd you you guys would be appalled at how often we just wing it.

Hey Dreg. Thanks dude, those guys were bumming me out. :P. The bag started colonizing as soon as I pricked it with a pin. Should be good to go in another couple days.

Aren't you running a class where people are paying you money to teach them how to grow oysters... :facepalm3:




yea. so I figure I should fruit these Oysters before I teach my class to do it.




Personally I wouldn't teach I class in anything (but especially something fairly complicated [IMO] such as growing mushrooms and especially for money) without first having done it several times myself. just my :twocents:

I have never had success with 100% coffee grounds as a substrate for oysters. I have found it to be relatively acidic, high in nitrogen, and prone to over-absorbing water, all of which seem to favor bacterial growth over oyster myc. I think you will probably have more success if you mix it 1:1 with sawdust or another fairly high carbon substrate. In any case, good luck and please let us know how this turns out.




PsilocyBen17: "I was looking to you as an experienced cultivator for some opinions and hopefully tips." - is probably what your students said as they signed up for your class. For money or not.
