Grow Oyster Mushroom seeds (cultivated spores), a fast-colonizing variety known for strong mycelium growth and dependable production. Oyster mushrooms are popular for home cultivation due to their rapid growth, high yield, and adaptable nature. Whether planted indoors or used to inoculate outdoor logs or straw beds, these spores are easy to grow and suitable for beginners.
These Non-GMO Oyster Mushroom spores spread quickly on common substrates such as straw, logs, and sawdust, making them ideal for home growing projects. Once established, they continue producing flushes throughout the season under proper moisture and shade.

Planting (Growing) Guide
- Prepare a clean substrate (straw, sawdust, cardboard, or hardwood logs).
- Add spores evenly throughout the moist substrate.
- Keep the substrate in a dark and humid location during colonization.
- Maintain moisture without soaking the material.
- Once white mycelium covers the surface, expose to indirect light.
- Keep humidity high to trigger mushroom formation.
- Harvest after caps fully form and edges flatten.
- Leave some spores to promote repeat flushes.
- Avoid chemicals near the growing area to protect healthy mycelium.
