How to grow Grey Oyster mushrooms

Grey Oyster mushrooms can be cultivated on various substrates, including sawdust, wood shavings, and even agricultural waste. Thanks to indoor growing kits, it's easy to produce fresh, organic mushrooms at home.

Growing tips from our specialist

Cut small openings in the grow bag, loosen the seeded straw to provide oxygen to the mycelium, and mist regularly with water. Keep a stable temperature between 15–20°C and maintain high humidity. Oyster mushrooms thrive in cool, moist environments—excess heat can disrupt their growth.

Composition :

  • 29.5x20x10cm cardboard box with top opening, horizontal format so that the oyster mushrooms can't fall out under the weight of the harvest, with ventilation holes, with pre-cut openings containing 1 watertight, transparent culture bag of substrate seeded with grey oyster mushroom mycelium.
  • Organic cultivation

Growing method :

  • Open the top of the can and pierce the plastic bag with a cross. Spray on, keep in indirect light and at a temperature close to 20°C.
  • Spray daily for harvesting in 1 to 2 weeks.
  • For a new harvest after cutting the first one, remove the bag from the box, immerse it in a bucket of water overnight, wring it out the next day and repeat the normal cycle.

How many harvests of organic grey Oyster ?

  • The shoot is normally triggered by opening the windows on the sides, incising then spraying water. The growth is fast and the harvest is done on both sides (being careful not to put one side against the wall) in a week. Once the shoot is launched, nothing can stop it and you have to water 2 times a day with a spray on the leaves and at the roots that come out of the straw.
  • The higher the temperature and the more water is used, the faster the growth.
  • Once all the heads have been cut off (the stems are not to be eaten), completely cut off the dry stem, open the bag and turn the bag 90°.
  • To cut the sides not yet opened. a new crop may intervene and produce again.
  • After this step, you can use the straw in your garden as organic fertilized substrate but will not be able to use it later for a new harvest because the mycelium consumed entirely can no longer give mushrooms.
  • Our advice on oyster mushrooms: Be careful! The Grey Burdock is sensitive to temperature changes and the growth could be triggered even without watering.
  • Temperatures: The pleurote kit is a waterproof bag containing straw seeded with mycelium and sterilized.
  • Seeding is done in the middle at 5°C and storage is also done at less than 10°C. At this stage, «buds» may appear but do not grow when the kit is stored at 15°C max. On the other hand, temperatures above 20°C trigger growth.
  • Keep the kit in the fridge if you do not want to use it immediately or if it is a gift.

Why mushrooms give white powder? what to do?

If you do not water enough or harvest the mushrooms on time, the mushrooms will start their breeding phase and sporulate. The process of fertilization will give a white powder that is mycelium. This stage marks the end of the harvest, the mushrooms are no longer to eat and a strong smell is emitted. It is time to throw out the growing kit.
