Sorry if this has been posted a bunch before, I wasn't really sure how to search for it.
I'm looking for some gourmet mushrooms that can grow in the same conditions (temperature especially) to cubes. Agar plates to rye berry jar spawn to coir shoebox. Info on the species name(s), how they differ from growing cubes (if at all) or a link to a tek on them wold be especially helpful. Thank you!

I can say I had this exact quesion when I first got into edibles and the short answer is there in none that are exactly the same, but the best choice to start I think is some form of oyster, or king oyster. They are the easiest and fastest among the common ones. A plus is that oysters colonize fast and also colonize coir or even woodchips or theoretically even logs. Shitaake dont work in a bed design apparently and dont fruit as easily and are slower in my experience. Kings grow straight up, oysters grow better from a side facing surface. An idea here is to take the coir block once colonized (and maybe consolidated a bit for stability) and cut it in half and stack the two halfes and turn them so they make a block that has some distance to the sides in the plastic tub. But they probably also grow fine just a little ugly straight up from the top.
Portobello are tougher cause they require composted hpoo with living organisms since they are secondary decomposers. I've heard people have small scale successes with just fresh sterizlized hpoo in jars too though, and I heard this one guy who said je composts his hpoo by putting it in a trashbag which he bangs around every once and a while to mix it up and that works.
