blue oyster project

I recently recieved a blue oyster culture and worked it up into liquid innoc. It was then used to innoculate grasslands mycobags.
Here is the result thus far.


Updates to follow.
Best regards,
Millet

Wow, Millet, awesome. You must know that your projects are greatly appreciated here at the Shroomery.
I have two straw blocks incubating myself, they are a wild grey/blue oyster that came off of a 1lb cluster that I found late this past winter !

Thanks for the kind words, and I wait with great anticipation for the results of your work.
I love collecting and the attempting indoor growout, as can be seen with the 'pikes peak' pleurotus thread that ive just updated.
I dont know about you, but im ready for spring so I can get back into the field for more collecting and photographing.
Best regards,
Millet

That is really cool!! I have a desire to do this at some point. With luck, and great deal of listening to successful people such as yourself, I too will someday be able to launch this type of project. I'll be hanging around these forums and learn what I can. Please keep us up on these. I need to learn all I can.

Heres an updated pic from this morning. This appears to be a claret shaped fruiter, much like Pl. ost. and Pl. citri.
They are a nice blue color, which cant be seen well in my pics.
I could use this one to start a stem farm......

Strange, I've grown both P ostreatus and P citrinopileatus and they didn't have claret shaped fruit..

Thats interesting. I assume as they mature they will fan out a lot more. Or maybe a lil more.

A used sliced wheat bread sack? So much for worrying about using myco bags. Its obvious that it is just as fruitful as any.

Yeah, I used a unsterilized bread bag for the Pleurotus citrinopileatus lol
Got some damn good flushes from it too!

Sporeworks cut out the hard work. Their gourmet kit mycobags come pre-sterilized with a culture syringe at quite a reasonable price.
If you were to PC a plastic bread bag like the one I used it would melt!

I'll remember that. Both tips. After all, a person can use a ziploc container and a microwave to sterilize instead of jars and a pc for brf/verm. I've wondered about other media such as wood and straw being successful without a PC, as I still don't have one and really want to get into medicinals/gourmet.

heres an updated pic. Nothing to write home about. I think this strain will be let go in the near future, it seems to be played out.
Notice the diminished cap size. Good thing we have another strain of blue oyster to trial.

Best regards,
Millet

Could they be suffering from too high CO2? What else is fruiting in that chamber?

They arent suffering from high co2 levels. As this flush matured lions mane was flushing at the same time and produced picture perfect fruits.
