My tub is severely contaminated!!! 1

With king oysters!!

So I decided like some old man that id get going on growing some gourmets. What I did not want was to do something totally different than what I'm already used to.
So just a bit of FYI to all you good folks, you can grow a boat-load of these by using exactly the same process as your cubes...I mean exactly.
Agar--->oats--->plastic tub full of coir--->close lid a couple weeks--->flip lid. They are all about 3 times bigger as of typing this and there's some nice boomers in there with hundreds of small pins. Probably should actually prune some out but this was for science  Maybe this is all a bunch of old news to some of you but everything I read about these suggested they were gunna need some namby pamby bottle feeding and special attention to work. I say if you got lazy Tek down then you can grow yourself some good grub.

Those look so tasty.... Nice job!
Also they will spore like crazy so eat up! This is cool, it is fun to think outside the box, All I ever read was you have to grow them out on Straw to get the best yields. Way to stick it to the man!

It would be nice if it turned out I actually confused those two cultures.
Not the case unfortunately. Pun intended.

Hmm. Good job. Maybe I'll let the sporeless culture rest for a min and bust out the king culture. Do a couple tubs. The last successful oyster grow I did was on toilet paper rolls dunked in boiling water then filled with spawn. Im starting to think it would be cool to do enough of these to fill a mono and see what happens.

Quick update. 

Unfortunately I was in too big of a hurry to eat that I forgot to get a finished pic of breakfast. But damn, I'm a meathead and these things really are a suitable substitute. Salt pepper, sesame oil, and butter. Had a very distinct bacony vibe. 10/10 will repeat this process.

Op can you help me out with that contamination. King oysters are yummy. Doing outside cold temp grow? Iām thinking you can let them get much larger. Ive had them 10-12 inch size.

These are inside on my dresser. ~63 degrees all day. I think that the pins came in way too dense, so I didnt get too many over 6" or so yet. Me thinks next time ill be pruning out all but the best looking pins to give them the most room. Ive pulled a couple pounds out now and second flush is coming in like a storm. All the rest from first flush aborted at about 2-3" little ones still good though.
I spent half the day making a super dope cream mushroom soup with sausage today!

Looking forward to trying this with the king cultures Im waiting on. pretty rad you can just use straight coir. Wonder if it would work with other oysters as well.

It's slowing down but I'm still pulling fruit from it and more coming. Lesson learned here is, definitely prune out a lot of pins to make room for bigger ones. The tub has probably aborted over 100 pins after 1" of growth. Luckily I got 5 new tubs to experiment with!
