Why Grow Blue Oyster Mushrooms:
Blue Oyster Mushrooms are delicious and fast-growing with very high yields! A hardy and vigorous grower, we highly recommend this kit for first-time growers.
Pleurotus ostreatus is an edible mushroom species that can be found across much of the world’s temperate woodland environments. They prefer cooler temperatures between 8 and 20 degrees.
Provided with natural sunlight these mushrooms absorb and store Vitamin D2 and are some of the only naturally occurring, non-animal food sources of Vitamin D.
Cooking Tips: With their subtle earthy flavours and delicate texture, the brackets of these mushrooms are great in Asian-style soups or simply sautéed with garlic on toast. When chopped, the stems from the large mushrooms make a great vegan substitute for mince in anything from spaghetti bolognese to homemade sausages.
