Fruiting King oysters in a monotub.
    #26691226 - 05/23/20 08:47 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

So I made some king oyster spawn on whole grain brown rice. (my go to spawn I know it's a little unusual) they colonized fairly quickly and look good. Spawned to standard coir/verm substrate and colonized that nicely. Formed hyphnal knots soon after then stalled. Waited a week or so and gave up on the tub. Placed it outside and gave up on it.

Checked it today about two weeks later and lo and behold! I've got kings. They are just small at the moment but they are going. It makes me wonder what the trigger was so I can try again at a later date.

Is it possible that they weren’t getting enough FAE while inside?

that's is possible, my cubes do ok but I know oysters LOVE their FAE. Now you mention it that seems blindingly obvious! haha thank you

I’m glad if I helped. I hope that’s all it is.

Cold.  Cold is the trigger.

FAE is great but does not trigger fruiting.  In fact, most kings are grown with restricted FAE to get the caps to stay smaller.

I've decided to start growing Blue Oysters as well as cubes. Is it more or less the same process?

IE

Rye Grain to Coir?

You should start a new thread since this question has nothing to do with the thread it's in.
