ChadRT Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Northwest Arkansas, found growing from some decaying wood buried underground in the front yard. Temps have been in the 50s-70s with some rain a few days ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 Yup, Oysters. The late season Pleurotus (mostly P. ostreatus) are really good edibles because they are thicker-fleshed than the summer ones (usually P. pulmonarius) and usually are insect free when the weather is cooler. The small really dark ones seen in the photo of the cluster may be a bit dry; they look to be older than the larger caps. Check the texture on those small/dark ones. If they seem tough it may be a good idea to trim them away and use only the large fresh-looking ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
