THE HASSLE FREE, READY TO FRUIT SOLUTION TO GROWING BLUE OYSTER AT HOME

Blue Oyster mushrooms have been prized for centuries in Eastern cultures for their impressive nutritional and wellness benefits. Historically, they were even cultivated as a source of sustenance in ancient Japan and valued for their potential to support heart health and promote overall vitality.

In recent years, Blue Oyster mushrooms have been highlighted for their cardiovascular benefits. Scientific studies reveal that they contain compounds called statins, which have been shown to help regulate cholesterol levels. Additionally, Blue Oyster mushrooms are rich in antioxidants and polysaccharides, which may strengthen the immune system and support the body's natural defenses.

Beyond their health potential, Blue Oyster mushrooms are highly prized in the culinary world for their tender texture and mild, earthy flavor. Versatile and easy to cook, they add a unique depth to a wide range of dishes, from stir-fries and pasta to risottos and soups. Their satisfying meaty quality makes them a fantastic substitute for traditional proteins, bringing both flavor and nutrition to any meal.

The process is simple: 

1. PREPARE THE BAG: Place your Blue Oyster grow kit in indirect sunlight, ideally at 18-24°C (64-75°F). Cut an "X" on one side of the bag to expose the mycelium to air.
2. MAINTAIN HUMIDITY: Maintain a humid environment by misting the kit daily or using a humidity tent. After 7-10 days, mushrooms should reach full size—gently twist to harvest at the base.
3. HUMIDITY-CONTROLLED CHAMBER: For optimal growth, place the fruiting block in a chamber like a MonoTub or Martha tent, as this will help to maintain optimum fruiting conditions

INGREDIENTS

Good ingredients make for good grow kits. That is why we only use our 100% natural and organic grain and masters mix substrate in our kits. We only use the best, natural ingredients for our products, so you get the best mushrooms. 

Our proprietary substrate blend is a mix of optimally hydrated millet grains, milo grains, hardwood pellets, soy hulls and gypsum. This mixture is carefully hydrated to field capacity and sterilised in a computer-controlled steam autoclave for 2 hours at 121°C. The result is an optimal 6:1 substrate to spawn ratio. This is then inoculated with our own Blue Oyster liquid culture, the substrate providing the perfect nutrient rich environment for mycelium, ensuring rapid colonisation, large yields, and minimal risk of contamination. After a period of a few weeks the substrate is fully colonised and ready to ship to customers.
