WHITE OYSTER MUSHROOM GROW KIT
Introducing the Forest Origins White Oyster Mushroom kit – the simplest way to cultivate your own delicious mushrooms at home! This all-in-one kit provides everything you need to grow mushrooms right out of the box.
EXPERIENCE GOURMET MUSHROOMS: The white oyster mushroom, native to temperate and sub-tropical forests, aren’t just visually appealing; they also provide a succulent and savory flavor profile. Sauté them, incorporate them into pastas, pizzas, or use them as a satisfying meat substitute owing to their dense texture.
START GROWING WITHIN 14 DAYS: Your kit is likely to begin “pinning” within 7-14 days, proceeding to double in size before reaching harvest-ready status.
FOR BEST RESULTS: Use your mushroom grow kit immediately upon receiving. However, if you are not ready to use it right away, you can store it in the sealed box it came in and put it in a dark closet indoor for a few weeks.
HANDMADE IN CALIFORNIA, USA: All our mushroom grow kits are handmade in California and are non-GMO, all-natural and organic.
Oyster mushrooms are favorites in the culinary world and for home gardeners. These fast-growing, reliable varieties are very simple to grow indoors, and the harvests are versatile in the kitchen. Our Oyster kits will produce multiple flushes separated by a few weeks.Mushroom kits are wonderful gifts to give and receive. After starting the indoor kits, your first harvest of mushrooms is usually within a few weeks. Store kits below 50°F and above freezing, but only for a short time. They are live products, so long delays in starting your kit may reduce your mushroom yield. Our grow kits are a colony of oyster mushroom mycelium growing on a mixture of hardwood sawdust, grain and water. Complete instructions included with every order.
Our White Oyster Mushroom grow kit, or Pleurotus Ostreatus grow kit, is great for beginners and those looking to start growing mushrooms at home. Simply cut an “X” in the bag, and mist with water once a day. Each kit produces ~1.5 pounds of mushrooms and should be ready to harvest in just about eight days. One of our favorite ways to cook oysters is simply chopped, sautéed in butter with some herbs, and served as a delicious side or as a delectable topping for steak.

Oyster Mushroom Grow Kit Written Instructions:
1. Find a good spot to keep your Oyster grow kit for the duration of its fruiting cycle that will receive at least 8-12 hours of light (indirect or from lights inside your home) each day, and should remain between 55-80° F. Cut a 6-inch “X” or “H” into the front center of the bag. Then fold the top of the bag back, removing any air inside the bag, and place so the logo is upside down.
2. To fruit optimally, the mushrooms will additionally require humidity and air flow. We find that it is easiest to achieve this by misting the portion of the bag with the opening 1-2 times daily, and keeping it inside a larger, clear plastic bag or upside down tote. Each time you mist, you will be maintaining the humidity and providing the mushrooms with fresh oxygen (like us – they need oxygen to survive and breathe out CO2).
3. After 7-21 days, you will see the mushrooms begin to emerge. They will be ready to harvest when the caps have opened up and are almost flat. It is best to harvest all at once to prevent contamination from forming during later flushes. To harvest, grasp the mushrooms by their base closest to the bag, and simply twist to remove. You can refrigerate in a breathable container or paper bag until consuming.
4. Follow steps 2 and 3 for 2-3 weeks for subsequent flushes. If conditions are ideal and well-maintained, it is possible to create second and even third fruitings. The block may eventually become depleted and succumb to contamination. When this happens, you can open the bag and add the contents to your compost pile, where it will soon become a microbally-rich compost! You may even see it fruit again outside if it is cool and wet in the days that follow.
