100 Grams/4 oz of Golden Oyster Mushroom Spawn Mycelium to Grow Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms at Home or commercially - Use to Grow on Straw or Sawdust Blocks - G1 or G2 Spawn

I'm happy to have found a strain of golden oyster mushrooms for their choice edibility and their ability to grow on used coffee grounds, hardwood sawdust, or cereal grains.We soak our substrate overnight to kill off any bacterial/fungal competition then incorporate the spawn into micro filtered grow bags using latex gloves.We also use a large plastic storage container with lid to act as a humid forest like environment. And we find between 60°-70° is optimal, preferably near a window to get natural cycles of light.Our kids enjoy the scientific aspect of watching mycelium convert different substrates into edible fruiting bodies and my partner and I love sauteed mushrooms, jalapenos, onions and butter with scrambled eggs. Thanks Mushroom Rush!

Nothing growing. Mycelium conked out. All the productsi purchased from this seller was bad.

This was my first time growing from spawn, so I tried this in different places on different substrates. There's a bit of a steep learning curve when trying to grow mushrooms, I'm finding. The spawn didn't take everywhere, but it is spreading out nicely in a mixture of coffee grounds, sawdust and some rotten wood that I had sterilized with some boiling water. Can't wait to watch the mushrooms grow out of the holes in the pot, almost there now. I tried to grow it in some rotten logs, stumps, and compost piles, but nothing took there. I would try this with hardwood chips next time or as a plug in a log, but in hardwood trees only. It took about a week for the product to get here from California to NY, but it turned out to be ok.

I've been growing mushrooms and have a small fruiting room. Using straw method. Everything as usual but no growth for these mushrooms. Just would not fruit.

This was my first time trying to grow mushrooms. I tried a multitude of methods to grow it. After a couple weeks, my jar substrate showed mycelium growing and I am still hoping some fruiting bodies grow from it. As of now I have 1 jar that is showing promise without contamination from mold. I think it was my mistakes that caused my many attempts to fail so far. I hope to try again soon with another batch of spawn.

grain spawn looked good and well developed. added to a grain/vermiculite substrate and it just never grew. Might be user error. idk.

This is our second time growing mushrooms from this companies spawn. The product comes quickly and well started.

There really should be a policy about pictures that are very deliberately not what you are getting. I do give myself a "shame on me" for not reading the description better. However, the VERY small amount of spawn is not nearly enough to quickly inoculate even a 5lbs bag of substrate, and it is shipped in what is clearly not a sterile container. Mine was a ziplock bag. I attempted to extend the culture anticipating that this poor handling would result in contamination and figuring it better to lose a little grain instead of my supplemented substrate.. Sure enough, added to sterile grains, and the culture is growing both oyster mycelium and green contamination mold. If someone has had success fruiting a block with this, they've gotten lucky. Nothing about the way these samples are handled is appropriate for sale as viable spawn.TLDR: didn't read the description - shame on mevery small amount of spawn + very poorly handled + not surprisingly full of contamination + deliberately misleading picture - shame on them.
