I just came across this thread Wild. What an amazing diversity of mushrooms! There are some incredible pics, and I’m hoping to look at some of your videos when I get a little more time,
I’m continually amazed at the abundance of nature when we just slow down enough to notice it. Thank you sharing!

Im glad you are enjoying them
If you watch me on YouTube subscribe to me so you can catch my videos when I upload them its going to be an interesting year :)
Much love xoxox thanks

Seems like a great fit lol
Should be out again soon enough

[wildedibles]

Some mushrooms have been early this year and I just had a thought
We had an early frost early in September which is usually the time these late summer mushroom are blooming

We didn't find any black trumpet last year because of the early frost
And the Amanita frostiana mushrooms barley bloomed ... Very few yellow Amanita last year
I think the cool weather last fall has made them ready early this year
We also had a 10C nights a few cool nights could have sparked the growth early this year

Some are late? Too hot dry? Now that we have had rain there's mushrooms all over the place :) lots to explore

[ElPirana]

Can’t wait to see what you find!

[wildedibles]

Can’t wait to see what you find!

I just posted this in my Amanita frostiana thread but here ya go :)

I just found pleurotus pulmonarius what can I grow it on? Spore prints on hard plastic still wet
The but ends im thinking might work now if i put it on cardboard or something to get it going too?

i think video coming soon...
http://www.mushroome...ulmonarius.html
I thought no way though they would have brown spores but nope very white

[Arathu]

Logs, wood chips, probably cardboard and waste paper pulps, can be enriched with good compost, maybe straw logs???? Woody stem plants perhaps.......not overly sure since my oysters get grown on sawdust and woodchip blocks enriched with wheat bran which has to be sterilized. I haven't really found a reason to try other stuff too much but I grew a ton of elm oysters out of waste paper pulp shipping carton material. In fact they came from bulk fluorescent light packaging crates/boxes....

 

The Italian Oyster mushroom.......make spaghetti sauce with some..... yummy.....

Woot woot :)
I have pine shavings i don't think they will like them too much?

I was wondering about these oats i have for my rabbits I have rolled and whole oats

I don't have a PC yet but willing to pasteurise substrate

I took as clean as i can spore prints in clean plastic herb container thing i found they work great for spore prints

My oyster collection here has white stuff on the top they are a few days old ...i want a new sample that i can get a but end to transfer it to paper material

In your experience if i use a paper product do i need to have some nutrition source like soaking it in rabbit poop water?
Then dry it some and maybe a clean plastic zip bag with the butt end?

I do have woodchips out in the garden too
That and sticks or something
Lol a block of firewood ;)

https://youtu.be/7MxCUH6AR0g
There is the video finding these
I'm pretty certain they are a match to that link I listed before

I've found the fall oyster before and the popular oyster and many other oyster type mushrooms but I have not found this one yet
I find other mushrooms exactly like this but get brown spores so I thought in the video that it was these ones but no sign of brown spores
Spore print was very white about 12hrs later
Thanks so much for your help

You can see what they are growing from there in your video is a well rotted log and dead tree. I've been fiddling around with all natural methods of transfer like stem-butts to soaked cardboard and mulch (stay away from the pine chips and wood IME)

 

When I did the paper pulp grows about two years ago I didn't enrich anything (because I wasn't using sterilized anything in those) Grains and other enrichment will definitely contaminate without being sterilized but you can experiment with some.

 

 

These were grown from paper pulp and chainsaw dust but do keep in mind that I was using rye grain spawn from quart jars and that was processed by standard means....it's in the thread.

From the video they look like pearl oysters to me wilde, which are a strain of Pleurotus ostreatus. I just found a tree fruiting that looked very similar to that in fact.

 

Good growing vibes lady, if you can find one I'd suggest trying to get your hands on a PC if you can.....the "all natural" route has a fairly limited success rate IME....

[wildedibles]

Yes I agree with all the reading I have done
I think this year Santa is bringing me a PC :)
I took some spore prints in a clean as can be way
I also took the buggy ones and put them around the logs in my garden;) hopefully they will grow on these by themselves :)
I do have luck spreading spores around
Thanks so much buddy

So for oysters when they start to fuzz its perfect to expand to paper pulp, pastureized hardwood chips, boiled egg crate (add a few tea bags). They are wild and have a good chance as not losing to other wild competitors. Its why I like working with wild spawn and adding them to my gardens or making a mulch bed that fruits seasonally. I have brown oysters that fruit in the middle of January growing behind my shed, I harvested 3 fruits and they them fuzz out on boiled egg crate then added pasturzed chips and paper animal bedding and grew out a tub and planted it like an island with mulch and it fruited last year and im hoping for more this year
