Our pink oyster (Pleurotus djamor) fruiting blocks feature a tropical strain that produces beautiful clusters of mushrooms with light pink to deep pinkish-red caps, depending on lighting conditions. They are succulent and savory, have a denser texture than other oyster varieties, and their intense color and rich umami flavor make them a popular meat substitute. Pink oyster mushrooms thrive in warmer temperatures and are great for beginners as they are reliable producers. They are also one of the easiest blocks to get subsequent fruitings and, if kept in the right conditions, should reliably produce a second flush or more! Upon receiving your kit: DO NOT REFRIGERATE PINK OYSTERS. Remove kit from the shipping box as soon as possible. Then, unfold the top of the bag, making room for air space. It's also important to check and confirm that the filter patch is not obstructed. This will help the organism breathe and continue to thrive! ⮕ Click for printable instructions Or, click “Instructions” below for a digital step-by-step guide.
