Blue oyster surprise! * 1
    #27068302 - 12/02/20 02:05 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

I had a couple 5 gal buckets with blue oyster colonizing alder chips. Figured they were about ready to start fruiting so I pulled off the garbage bags so I could open the lids and confirm my suspicion.

Turns out the oysters had already decided.



Pretty stoked because I grew these from a clone off a fruiting block I’d bought from a supplier. This is my first time going full-cycle - tissue to agar to grain to wood.

Looks like I’m going to have a lot of oysters to eat!

In my experience with oysters I do not put them into fruiting chamber to start growing, I put them because they have already started.

I would trim those back there is not enough water in that bucket to support all that fruit.

Good point.

My fruiting chamber is currently pretty ghetto. It’s a metal shelf with some painter’s plastic wrapped on 3 sides (including the bottom) and then some garbage bags haphazardly draped when I noted that the pins were drying out.

I think I successfully killed enough pins while dialling in the humidity that it might not over-fruit.

Yeah I didnt want to be a downer, but alot of those pin sets are going to abort. I hope you dont have that bucket in that FC you just mentioned. You need much more air. Youre better off just having the bucket fruit in the open and mist it occasionally.

Be patient and keep it simple.

Mushrooms are 90% water and the majority comes from the sub. The humidity just keeps the fruit from drying out. The humidity does not provide water for it to grow.

LOL, I somehow missed the part about you successfully killing enough pins.

They sure do! And excellent job I hope you get alot of nice tasty caps! Don't get discouraged with the amount that abort, it's just part of the process. As Shroomsisay said pruning some of the clusters is a great idea bc the mushroom will then divert more growth energy to your succesful clusters. But I also know what its like to be new and you think every pinset is precious and youll be swimming in mushrooms. Good luck as you move forward! Youll get better and better.

Those holes are too close to each other. Your cluster will grow into each other and not grow properly. Also if you do not cut down on those clusters you will have a bunch of smaller fruits. I would rather have four clusters like this...



Then to have 20 small clusters. But that is just me. I like to only have to harvest a few fruits and still get a nice weight. I think the less work haresting the better.
