How do you see my oysters? (Photos)
    #26098209 -

hello, i ma posting because i have some problems with my oysters.
first of all, i live in very in the tropics so the temperature are hight ( 25 to 32 celthius ) and right now is very humid ( around 80%).
I have a fruiting room inside a hidroponic tent .... i think i need more FAE and maybe more light , but i am asking to you because you are more expert than me !


this is the fruiting room: on the right there is a window, and on the left there is a 70 Watt light.


here on the right you can see the window. The sun cannot enter in but light yes.



Oyster coming out from a bucket ( i do not know what kind they are but are light brown on the top) . As you see is fruiting a lot, even too much... there are too many pins. and many do not grow and abort.


the same bucket. Observe how many pin there are... too many.


a big bucket with pink oysters . The photo is from the side of the artificial light and are not really pink.


the same pink oyster bucket from the side of the window. Are much more pink and healthy . I dont know what do you think...




oyster ( i do not know what kind ) inside a plastic bottle. hose are the best i have right now.


pinning from the cap ... you can see that there are many pins...










oysters in my hand: as you see some of them is big and others do not grow .

what do you think ?
thanks a lot in advance.

I am by no means an expert but ive grown plenty of oysters successfully. I would say they need much more FAE. Be aware of the heavy spore load of oysters too.

Those oysters definitely need more fresh air. With oyster anytime, you have long stipes (stems). You need more FAE. The pink oysters need more light. The more light they get the darker the color. Never put mushrooms in direct sunlight though. What Packerbacker12 was saying about the spores is that they will cover everything in the room it will look like you have years of dust all over everything. If you pick them before the spores drop you are fine. The health concerns of breathing in spores are not good. Once you breathe in a spore it will stay in your body forever. So you can greatly reduce your lung capacity if you are not careful. You need to hook up a fan to duct and duct the air out a window. Put the fan on a timer and exchange the air 3 to 6 times an hour. You can reduce the number of air exchanges by about 1/2 down to 3 times an hour by placing a circulation fan in the tent. Do not have the fan blowing on the mushrooms you just want air moving constantly in the tent. I would then use a duct flapper to draw air in when the exhaust fan comes on. You will then have a passive system.

This is what I mean by a flapper...

It is best to have the flapper at the top and the exhaust at the bottom because the spores will eventually want to fall to the ground.

I forgot to mention if you put a light in there use a 6500K light.

I am sure you know what proper oyster mushrooms look like but here is a pic...

The ones in the top pic have about a day until they will start to drop spores. They will get flat and that is when they start to drop spores. Just try to pick them while they still have a little curve to the cap.
