Growing your own healthy and delicious mushrooms has never been easier, and you can do it year round with a North Spore 'Spray and Grow' Kit. No experience necessary.
Activating your kit:
1) Inside this box is an amended sawdust block that has been completely colonized by mushroom mycelium. Open your kit along the perforated line and dispose of the remaining cardboard.
2) Slice an 'X' into the plastic underneath with a sharp knife or scissors.
3) Fill the sprayer included in your kit with tap water and spritz the plastic where you sliced your 'X' shape. Spritz your kit at least twice daily - more if you're in a particularly dry climate.
4) Place your kit in the most humid part of your home and outside of direct sunlight. We suggest putting it on a kitchen counter close to a sink. The mushroom mycelium will sense the oxygen in the air and produce mushroom 'pins' - another word for 'baby mushrooms.' This will usually happen within two weeks of slicing the plastic.
5) Harvest before the caps flatten out and become concave. Mushrooms grow quickly, so when you spot your first pins, keep an eye on them. The warmer the environment the faster they will grow. Mushrooms should be ready to harvest 2-5 days after pin formation.
The pink oyster mushroom (Pleurotus djamor) closely resembles most other oyster mushroom species, except for it's beautiful bright pink color. The taste is also broadly similar to that of other oysters. The Pink Oyster grows quickly. It fruits heavily, which makes it a favorite with hobbyist growers. The color makes it popular wherever it is sold.
