Hey everybody!

What mushrooms are you growing currently? What mushrooms do you plan to grow? What techniques are you using? Why are you growing them?

Just harvested my first flush from Phoenix Oyster Mushrooms from Fungi Farm.

Simple spawn bag that I purchased while visiting family in Alabama.

  1. Cut an X in the top of the bag
  2. Soaked bag in water for about 4 hours
  3. Setup in my closet

This is from 1 week. https://pixelfed.social/p/caseinpoint/619332224218479589

Love those little mycelial threads around the edges of your caps. Looks like snowflakes. Very envious of your harvest!

Thank you! Yeah. It was definitely time to harvest before spores got all over everything in my closet.

I plan on putting some of them on agar and playing with more propagation.
