  • Pink Oyster Mushrooms are super easy to grow at home, and if you cook ‘em right, they really do taste just like bacon.
    In this video we grow some Pink Oysters outside in a mini-greenhouse, harvest, and Tegan shows us all how to make them delicious.

    13:46 Tasting The Pink Oysters
    *This video was recorded in September 2020, which is why it was still so nice outside.
    The fruiting blocks were made from sawdust and bran, inoculated with ½ quart of Pink Oyster grain spawn.

    Hey Tony, after watching your videos and listening to your podcasts for a while now, I finally got my small greenhouse going and just inoculated my first batch of mushrooms ( pink oysters, king oysters, pioppini and shiitaki) and I must say my pinks are colonizing at a rediculous rate. I am definitely going to use this recipe for my first flush from my first batch. Keep up the great videos and great information

    I'm about to give growing mushrooms a try. I ordered a blue oyster kit earlier today. If that goes well, I was already planning on trying other mushrooms. But I probably would have overlooked pink oyster mushrooms if RUclips hadn't suggested a video with both pink oyster and bacon in the title. From a color stand point, pink is my least favorite color. But from a food standpoint, bacon is very high on my list of favorites. And for that matter, smoked paprika is high on my list of favorite spices. I will definitely be adding pink oysters to my list of mushrooms to try.

    it looks to me like they would love to grow sideways out of the bag instead of out on the upside. as you cut the scond time, you rearranged some of the bags, so the mushrooms had to reorientade themselfs, i guess that costs them some energy aswell. i would have slid them open sideways.

    @CMZneu 3 года назад +8

    4:38 This happened to me the other day, most of them just wouldn't pin where i cut and just burst through the bag and filter, later flushes did mostly pin where i cut.
    My hypothesis is that this happened because i cut too deep (like you did) and disturbed the mycelium too much, could also be that the meaty white part of the mycelium just wasn't all that dense there so it prefered to pin elsewhere where it had more energy stored or something.
    What do you think?

    • @FreshCapMushrooms
      @FreshCapMushrooms  3 года назад +4

      hard to say, mushrooms just do as they please sometimes haha- I agree maybe the cutting damages the mycelium, but it usually doesn't matter. Always the easiest/fastest is just cutting where they are already pinning, but that can be awkward sometimes
