Thank you for mentioning about yellow oyster mushrooms potentially being an invasive species in North America. I always try to be conscious about that with plants, but haven’t heard or read anything else about the issue with mushrooms before.
I grew my first oyster mushroom from a kit. I think I'm hooked. I love it. Now I want to know everything.
Watch out! I grew king oysters from a kit 8 months ago, now I have 2 buckets of kings fruiting and 12 logs with 6 different strains growing (I hope) in the garden... It's addictive
4:47 ah that’s why my block went rancid! I killed it by putting it in the fridge.
hey cody! anyway do you really planing for cultivating algae and then use it as mushroom substrates?
I just started growing a few months ago, and went all out, making liquid cultures, grain jars, and bags, buckets. I just tried out using coffee grounds mixed with some hard wood pellets, and Tarragon Oyster is spreading even faster than Pink Oyster, and both are doing better, actually than a regular hardwood bags. Lions mane is a big winner for aspen wood chips in buckets, where as others don't do so well, some contaminated, but all Lion's mane is healthy and constantly producing. peanut butter jars with some holes drilled in, covered in micropore tape, are so easy for anyone who has already made grain spawn, blue oyster and pink oyster, it will be ready to fruit in a week. Just pour boiling water on your aspen wood chips, let cool and created layers in the jar and seal. I am actually amazed at how fast and successful it is for something not properly sterilized, and a higher success rate than using buckets. I'm also in Canada. I have king blues and black pearl kings just starting to fruit.
You're getting Lions Mane out of buckets?!
@@ericj6636 Yep!
I really appreciate how you bring such informational content in a professional and calm way (contrary to the tendency on youtube for sensation and shouting). Have read your entire blog and you really inspired me to try it myself. Cloned store bought mushrooms via needle biopsy in honey water jars. Transferd on grain and and the first bag of king oysters is colonizing. Thanks for all your videos and blogs. Greetings from Flanders.
These videos are great! I'm learning so much. I can go as deep as I want and it's east to understand.
I'm taking notes like crazy.
Thank you so much!
Pink Oyster bacon is SOOOO good!
I'd love to try Oyster mushrooms. I haven't had the pleasure yet. But after watching this video, I think I will be getting some pink oyster mushrooms and cooking those up.
Do you have any available locally?
Hey I'm just starting out as a hobby-mushroom-grower! Ordered some liquid King Oyster and Yellow Oyster mushrooms - nice to know that I made a good choice! btw thanks so much your help is invaluable! This whole thing is an adventure! I bought a 30 year old steriliser which looks like its from the DDR and the whole thing is just a lot of fun!
I have to hand it to you Tony. You took something that seemed pretty complicated and difficult, and made it very easy to understand and then do yourself. I love your videos and recommend them all the time. I don't know what it is about mushrooms but they seem very special. Keep up the great work my man!
I grow black pearl a lot. First flush 1.5 to 2 lbs. small second flush 4 to 6 ozs. I’ll grow a number of blocks at a time and my son freeze drys them for me and vacuum seals them. So I have them almost year round. Also grow white, blue and grey oysters. But my favorite is chestnut, I use them to make garlic sauce to go on top of my pasta. Outdoors I grow Wine caps.
Thanks, i love it. im a survivor of stroke, so its hard to communicate. i live in a tiny apart very tiny, its on the third foor in helena mt, corthouse, i could touch it in less than 5 min
I was given a blue oyster grow kit for Christmas and after doing some research came to your video! I'm on about day 7 or 8. I have an activated carbon air filter and a vent over the mushrooms and the only problem is that I dried them out in a couple instances! After i added a humidifier they have been blooming beautifully!
Thanks Tony! I always appreciate the knowledge that you and Tegan share! Good vibes my dude! :)
thank you!
Awesome video, this gives me a few insights into some of the challenges I've had fruiting Oysters.
Thank you for this explanation. Easy to understand and well researched
Been watching your channel for months now and somehow never knew you were in Canada! Haha good stuff. Thank you for all the great information, keep the videos coming!!!
Very informative and well presented. Please keep up the good work!
Great video Tony! Just what I needed. I've started a project of growing pink oysters in a bucket...
Very informative. Thanks.
Your video is great. I'm brand new to this and it was very helpful the way you explained oyster mushrooms. Thank you
This is a wonderful summary of oysters thank you !!
Perfect 👌🏼 this is exactly what I needed to spice up the weekend meals 🤟🏼☃️
they go good in so many different things!
@@FreshCapMushrooms what’s your #1 dish to add them to?
Shrooms are real good,and has healing powers,i got recommended to a Healer who got the beat psychedelic,hit him up on instagram @healermanchris...he's a sure plug...🍄🍄💯
Thank you for all your content you've helped me start my own small farm starting with White/Pink/Blue Oysters! I'm so hooked!
Where do you live? I’m considering starting a small farm too
Hey there you have a great Chanel. Thanks for spreading this info so clearly.
thanks for being here!
Thank You.....I hope you are both well. Stay safe
Heyan. Great video, I appreciate your humility. I will be ordering liquid spores and starting my first few straw logs outdoors.
Thank you, Tony!
Love the bracket on the wall behind you!!!!!
Thanks Tony !
Awesome info Tony! Thank you for sharing!🙏🏻. I love growing all kinds and haven’t had too much luck with Oysters. I live in a hot and humid area. South Texas😬. But I do love eating them😃
Hey Tony, love your vids, knowledge and enthusiasm for mushrooms! What material did you use for the substrate or casing layer on top of the king oyster blocks? I'm growing some kings oysters right now and find they do get dry pretty quickly even with misting two to three times a day.
Awesome video. I really want to grow some oyster mushrooms at home. They look delicious. 🍄
Your channel is a great find. I’ve been vegan for more than 3yrs and been using mushrooms to boost my cooking’s flavour. I’m still learning the health benefits and different kind of mushroom and your channel is very helpful. Thank you.
WOW Thank you so much.
Great video very informative thanks bro
@Cy's Kitchen No get out of here with that
'Super' is a great word to use once, maybe twice.
Love your work, bro. I'm just getting into cultivating mushrooms this week so diving down the rabbit hole... I noticed you didn't mention the species I've chosen to start with down here in New Zealand, pleurotus pulmonarius.
I was hoping he would touch on those too. There's some awesomely prolific & very tasty colonies of P. pulmonaris growing on some fallen white ash (sadly extinction bound stateside) nearby that I'd like to try my hand at growing at as well.
Got to watch a really cool mass spore dispersal the other day.
Good teatching
Thanks a lot for your easy informative videos content.
Could you make a video about the mushroom kit you just mentioned in this video.
The wild variant of Blue Oyster grows near me. It has a lovely anise smell. Definitely my favourite.
I am just about to try grow it for the first time.
Your passion about mushroom is more infectious then spores itself xD
didn’t know that there’s a pink variation of mushrooms! nice
Amazing video ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pink oyster mushrooms are gorgeous :)
just started with grow kits myself. currently kicking off a 2nd flush of pink oysters & shiitake .. I'm hooked & trying really hard not to go get more already... (don't want the house full of them... or do i?)
yes, house full of mushrooms is ideal lol
My first kit started fruiting Wednesday, by that night I had two more ordered...oops!
so far i've only got my closet full, but that's a good start
@Amanda Williams shhhhh
I'm tempted to try growing some bacon shrooms 😁
I'm a big fan of my pinks. When you posted up your pink cooking video I was getting ready to fruit mine. Unfortunately they pinned, lost their color and stalled. I got my equipment debugged and am about to try again. Keep the great information coming 👍
Keep at at it. I tried a few times and got some frustrating mold contamination, despite gallons of alcohol spray and flame sterilized needles. I have 2 really good bags of CVG mix colonized with spawn. I am not giving up. I just built a small flow hood to do agar and keep everything sterile. I will eventually buy a pressure canner for my grain jars. I am so far trying King, yellow and Chestnut at fruiting stage.
Very cool... congratulations mom
Hello! I started following you recently and I really love your videos. I would like to ask a question. I want to start growing mushroom at home from log. I have to use freshly cut log or older log that been rehydrated ? Thank you for your help and this awesome videos.
That blanket is cool af
LOVE P.O.populinus... !!!
Favorite oyster? Pleurotus pulmonarius. Managed to find one in the wild and clone it. Only's got one month of season per year in my country and is really rare, I'm so stoked. Six jars currently inoculating, furthest one is at about 25%. I'll make 25+ jars eventually. Two plates for storage.
Why is it your favorite?
J'ai une grande admiration pour ce savant qui est engagé dans la culture des pleurotes comme dans un sacerdoce. Je préfère l'huile d'olive pour mes cuissons en place du beurre c'est la seule nuance d'un méridional d'avec ce grand spécialiste. Chacun ses goûts!
I'm glad the person naming them specified it looked like a side ear, I would have been confused as to what kind of ear it looked like if they hadn't.
Great video, I am currently growing pink and pearl oysters, I never liked Blue Oysters, always thought they were part of a cult, yet people always tell me,
"Don't fear the reaper"....hahahahahahaha😂🤣😅😄
*My deepest apologies to people under 30, who probably have no clue about what I just wrote...hehehehe.
Also, put anything into Google and they have a button that you can hit and they will pronounce any word.
I live in the Philippines and i grow Black Pearl oyster mushrooms alot... Those and King Blues. It is sub-tropics here and I have the best luck in the winter when night-time temps get in the mid 70's F... (days are in upper 80's F to 90 F +)
Both take at least 3-4 weeks before they are fully colonized (on cvg) and both benefit from 24-48 hrs in the fridge to cold shock them into fruiting. I have also noted that an extra 3-4 hours of full band lighting improves results. They both need robust FAE and humidity of at least 85%-95% depending on air flow.
Unlike the White Florida strains (and other warm weather species) both of these have fat meaty stems that are tender right down to the substrate, with wide thick caps. The King blues have fatter stems but I have found the Black Pearl's to be more prolific, with wider caps.
Merry Christmas...
En casa cultivamos Djamor y Ostreatus. Me gustó mas el aroma y sabor de P. Ostreatus
Gracias por la informacion. me quedo con entusiasmo por probar las citrino
I have plastic bags of well colonized yellow and king oyster mycelium I grew from LC syringes. I did some brown rice microwave bags with chestnut also growing well. I am yet to get them to fruit. I have placed the king and yellow bags in a tub and cut the top corners off for fresh air exchange/ I have put a LED strip on them and a reptile heat mat. I am misting them. I hope to get some fruiting fungi soon. Your videos are great for a learner like me.
Have you tried growing the white elf as well (Pleurotus nebrodensis)? They seem to be endangered in the wild. And what about Phoenix oyster (Pleurotus pulmonarius)? They're meant to be one of the few species that can grow on conifers (softwood)? Another cool one I've recently learned about is the Tarragon oyster, which is apparently endemic only to the area around York, UK. People that sell them claim that they are one of most delicious oyster species you can grow. I know that it's not easy to cover all of these in one video, but I gave you an idea for another video on the less conventional oyster varieties.
Great Vid, What about cold shocking to trigger fruiting and initiate pinning?
its super interesting how youcan make really long skinny ones when they dont have much oxygen, and just the different ways you can get the same species to grow. super cool!
Thank you for the information I love mushrooms, not brave enough to grow them though
Boletus is one I tried in Spain and really enjoyed. I have not found it here.
you always teach us mushroom growing for in home (like a hobby) show us for marketing method.
How about Pheonix Oyster or Pleurotus Pulmonarius? What are the main differences between Pearl Oyster and Pheonix Oyster?
I’m interested in this because I am about to inoculate some mahogany logs with them here in the tropics. My experience foraging them is that they grow well in very high humidity and full shade or partial sun. And they are white not gray. ❤
Excellent video.
I noticed a porcelain frenchie in the background
Do you have frenchies?
My local store has "black oyster" mushrooms (pretty sure they're blues) and "white oyster" mushrooms (pretty sure they're pearls). Oyster mushrooms are some of my favorites to gently simmer into a soup, or toss into a stir fry at the last minute and cook on the residual heat. I'm not a big fan of king oysters, I find they're TOO meaty for me, but I don't have a problem with oyster stems, so I guess it's a matter of preference.
tony can you make a vid of timeline, base on temperature of when grow the different spicies. or if you have done can you give me the link or if you know a site whit a nice list for program the time when start to grow one tipe or other.. thank you for your help and for all your nuce vid. see u
Hi , just one question if you could answer it will be helpful
When to out casing layer on king Oyster after the block is fully covered in mycelium or just out it on top and wait.
Thanks
Liking this video for the mushroom blanket
hahaha, it really is great :)
Many thanks for all the info! I have never tried an oyster mushroom so going to start off with one of the Back to the Roots kits. Here goes nothing! Or something!
Any suggestions about mushroom farts?
I know it's gross, but some mushrooms make me have gas like nothing else and I wondered if that' permanent?
Really seems to be just oyster mushrooms, boiling prior to sautéing them seems to help a bit, but sometimes it doesn't matter what I do. I can eat a pound of beans and no problems, but a couple oyster mushrooms and fog horn city.
Growing kings right now.
Great vid as always, but what abt pulmonarius?
I wonder if the wild one you cultivated would have done better if you tried growing it in an outdoor straw bed?
Hello good morning . It's nice watching your video . I want to confirm something from you and this is very important to my life and business . Does oyster mushroom spawn smell at all even when it is white and no sign of contamination .
Here before 1k
Okay so, I have one of the back to the roots grow kits. When they were pinning they were definitely blue like you showed for blue oyster mushrooms, but I can't find anything to indicate back to the roots sells blue oyster grow kits, so can pearl oysters be that same blue when they're freshly pinned??
Thrilled to find yellow oysters have 'invaded' our hard woods as our morels seemed to have moved out due to over harvest by poachers. One question I have is will the yellow oysters colonize Walnut logs? We did a wood harvest earlier this spring and have a lot of brush down. I would love to know that in a year or two the yellows will help break them down.
Black Kings are the hybrid made by mossy creek, I believe, the King Trumpet/Black pearl
I live down in Belize and found what I think are pearl oyster mushrooms growing on a coconut tree. Do they grow on coconut trees? Also if they are misidentified what would the most likely candidate?
Could I grow pink oysters the same 5gallon bucket style? Would it have to be summer? What would ideal fruiting temps have to be? (Fahrenheit)
Where did you get your cushion from please???????? I need it!!!!
Can someone help me?
On warmer climates, would
You rather recomend cultivating white or brown oyster mushrooms
I’m currently growing mycelium on paper from store bought Black Velvet Oyster mushrooms. The mycelium has really been enjoying the Kraft paper I’ve saved from deliveries - shredded and boiled for 30 min. It’s almost ready to fruit. Fingers crossed
Please tell me where you got the Turkey Tail art on the wall behind you!!!!
I've noticed two different types of blues that we get- 'cool' blue and 'warm' blue. The cool blues keep the blue color better while the warm ones tend towards grey.
Hi man. Great video. I have a question regarding the spawn.. there is no place locally in my area that sells. Is it possible to make it myself from a mushroom kit and how long can it be kept
All thanks to mycojims on IG for being genuine... You can always get your shrooms, LSD, dmt, chocolate bars and even growing kits.,
I would assume growing pearl oyster mushroom the same way as blue oyster mushroom is it right?? Thanks
love your blanket!
I just grew some blues and they had my favorite of flavors of mushrooms thus far. Only thing: They didn't get very big. I grew in 52 degrees in a basement that has good air and 72 percent humidity. Any thoughts on that? I like your videos, keep the new ones coming!
Air purifier
I love the fact that you have a giant Lingzhi mushroom hanging on your wall behind you and you don't talk about it.
Isn’t that cool thanks mom hahah great vids man
I've got golden, blue, snow, Italian, and pinks going, the blue and Italian ones already fruiting at 1 week and a day.
Great video. I am wondering if you can cold pasteurize aspen wood shavings with hydrolyzed lime for growing blue oyster mushrooms in buckets?
you can skimp a lot on sterilizing stuff, the reason you go all out trying to get a sterile environment is to maximize conditions to optimize yields
mushroom environments aren't sterile in nature and I grow plenty of blues without messing around with sterilization as long as I know my spawn is of high quality and viable, once established the mycelium "immune system" kills any kind of pathogen most of the time
You can.
We do on occasion
how can you tell when the mushrooms have gone bad? i bought king and blue oyster mushrooms but theirs this fuzzy white film over them in not sure if that's just a fungi thing or if they've gone bad. when i wash them it disappears
Good video. Missing (at least) pleurotus pulmonarius off the top of my head
yes totally! not a lot of experience with that one personally
I read that the pulmonarius likes warmer weather so it may not be popular in Canada
Please let me know if you know of poison oyster mushroom? Recently I've been hunting and we seen some oyster mushroom. But they seem to be sending people to the Emergency Room. They look white with a yellow tint. Not like yellow oyster. You can find them in eastern Sierra mountain in California.
How long do the cooked pink oyster mushrooms last?
