Best Substrate for Oysters
    #28585228 - 12/16/23 11:09 AM (1 month, 12 days ago)

Hello Shroomery,
I am starting my first blue oyster project. I cloned fruits from the grocery store on agar- took a bit of tissue and put to agar and have done 3 transfers.
My plan is to put the colonized agar to quarts of Oats, since I have a lot of oats.
Here is where I would love some input.
Substrate: what is the best way to do this?
--Noobies' Sawdust with wood chips and wheat bran?
--Jooce's mastermix?
--or unsupplemented sawdust?

Thanks in advance

Ding ding I don't have a laminar flow hood so lets go the pasteurized route! not the sterile way for substrate.

Hi Thanks for the input b/c yeah that is supposed to be the best from what I have read out there, but have never tried.  Does that type of substrate require sterile conditions for inoculation? Because I think it will be tricky to do it in my SAB. Thoughts?

So b/c of that I am thinking of going straight HWP or Straw Pellets.

If you sterilize the substrate and use a heavy spawn ratio you can inoculate the bag and seal it up in open air. It will be fine
