  • Fruiting Temperature: 18°C to 30°C
  • Difficulty Level: Easy. Pink Oysters are extremely fast colonizers and prolific fruiters, but they are strictly a warm-weather species and will not tolerate cold.
  • Shelf Life & Storage:
    • Storage temp: above 10°C
    • Store in the refrigerator upon arrival.
    • Best used within 2 months of receiving for optimal results.
    • Take out 24 hours before use from fridge.

Fruiting Method:

The Spawn block will begin forming pins (tiny mushrooms) that will push through the cut in the plastic and gradually widen it as they grow. Continue misting 2–3 times per day until the mushrooms are ready to harvest.

The purpose of misting isn’t to water the block — it already contains all the moisture it needs to grow. Instead, misting creates a humid environment around the cut and helps keep the developing mushrooms moist.

You may notice mushrooms starting to grow inside the bag in areas other than the cut. This is completely normal. Do not open the bag or make extra cuts where you see this growth, as doing so will interfere with the process and reduce your overall yield.
