Adventures in Oyster Mushrooms

Some different oyster mushrooms I’ve encountered.

Blue Oyster mushroom: Pleurotus ostreatus var columbinus

These first ones grew from a sawdust block but I was unsure of what they were. They had a strong peppery taste.

These were growing spontaneously in my greenhouse. They were pretty delicious.

Pearl Oyster: Pleurotus ostreatus.

King oyster ~ Pleurotus eryngii. mycellium in a jar fresh off of Dog Food Agar.  These are being grown for bioremediation in the garden, more to come…
