Kevin Hoover Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 Took another inoculated straw bale back to the corner of the woods this morning and put it with the others (7 now, pohu, blue and pink oysters). Thought I’d check on my mushroom logs, just in case. They’re stacked in back of a blewit bed I put in last fall. No mushrooms yet. But there is a fallen maple on the one side of the bed. Oysters are fruiting on it right now. Saw two large clusters of older bug eaten oyster, but further up the tree are a couple of clumps of younger ones. Will take my mushroom basket and knife back and harvest them sometime this afternoon. In the last week, I harvested three pounds of oysters off of two of the buckets in the garage, and a third bucket is fruiting now. In the basement I have four grow bags of chestnut mushrooms with healthy secondary flushes in various stages of development. I need to walk up to the other corner of the property and check the tree that gave us a nice size chicken of the woods early last summer.

bprzyw Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Awesome Kevin! Sounds really great. I have not had any luck trying to propagate outdoors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
