Reliable, versatile and wonderfully flavourful, the Grey Oyster Mushroom is a favourite for growers and home cooks alike.
Its mild umami flavour and tender texture make it perfect for stir-fries, pasta, creamy sauces and everyday cooking. Known for its resilience and generous yields, it is also a rewarding choice for first-time growers.
When will they start growing?
After cutting the X, you can usually expect growth within 2–7 days.
Once the first small pins appear, your mushrooms grow quickly and are generally ready to harvest within another 5–7 days.
Where should I keep my log?
Keep your mushroom log in a clean, bright indoor space with indirect light and fresh airflow.
Avoid direct sunlight and strong drafts. Ideal fruiting temperatures are between 13–26°C.
How often should I mist?
Mushrooms love moisture. Gently mist the growing area at least three times per day.
A humidifier can also be used nearby if your environment is particularly dry.
Will they grow again?
Yes! With the right care and conditions, your log can produce approximately 2–3 harvests.
After harvesting, allow the log to rest. New growth may start appearing again within approximately 7–20 days.
