Oyster Mushrooms
Notes
1.) Cut a large x on the broad side of the bag with a knife, leave the plastic covering on the block.
2.) Place the block in a well-lit room, but not in direct sunlight. Ideally the block should be in an environment with humidity around 80%. You may place a loose transparent bag over the block to increase humidity or place the block in a small open bin
3.) After 5-7 days, mushrooms should begin to form on the block but will be very small. Continue to mist 3-4 times per day, after 4 more days, mushrooms should form to full maturity. Harvest the mushrooms when the cap still has a slight curl under, before it has flattened out. The mushroom cluster is typically larger than a hand.
4.) Allow the block to rest for 2-3 weeks, no misting needed.
5.) When you see little baby mushrooms coming out of the block again, resume misting 3-4 times a day.
6.) Repeat steps 4 and 5, two or tree times, the amount of mushrooms which fruit will decrease with each flush after fruiting 2-3 times, place the block outside and compost.
