Organic Italian Oyster Mushroom Grain Spawn

Italian Oysters (Pleurotus pulmonarius) are thicker and meatier than blue oyster mushrooms, and their brown frilled caps can grow quite large. They have a mild flavor, earthy aroma, and are favorite among those who prefer a sturdier oyster mushroom. Italian oysters are great for beginners and are reliable indoor year-round producers. If kept in the right conditions, they will yield substantial first, second, and even third harvests (making them an ideal commercial variety!) When cultivated outdoors, they are generally cold tolerant and fruit prolifically in early spring or late fall.

Italian oyster grain spawn can be used for indoor production using sawdust or straw or outdoor production using straw or wood chips.

Do not use grain spawn for log inoculation.
