I’ve just been ripping up my lions mane into pretty little pieces but I’m now so excited to try pressing and cooking them like little steaks! They’re my favorite mushroom. My lions mane and pink oyster kits have just started to pin and I’m positively gleeful!

@Sitting_leaves 3 года назад

Just tried this recipe on my freshly harvested pink oysters and man is it fire - and that's coming from someone who doesn't like mushrooms and did this for a class project

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

Sounds like a success!

@benault1075 Год назад

We got the blue oyster kit, and we just had our first flush! The kit has been great for us. It was fun watching the pins grow.

@jeeveswinston2545 3 года назад

The timing of the salt.... that’s gold right there. Hmmmm that must taste so good. Scoop on the rice with some sautéed spinach in that deglazed pan.. any or all of those tasty treats.

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

Yep, we're always hungry in this business!

Already ordered Shittake and Pink Oyster sawdust spawn and now having researched more Im going to get the Lion's Mane and Wine Cap I HAVE TO HAVE THEM You guys gave me the confidence to know I can do this!

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

Fantastic! Making it less daunting is precisely our goal.

@playinglifeoneasy9226 Год назад

Oh the mushrooms have a nicer flavor if you sauté some kind of onion/leek/shallot before adding. It just works magic. Follow up with a bit of Parmesan cheese for best results.

@wbfojnewton1 Год назад

I grew up a long time ago,lol.I remember Morel Mushrooms,throw them in a pan with butter(only butter),the taste was soooo great.I see all the seasoning done to the Oyster Mushrooms,I must say that definately deminished my newly found interest.

@NorthSpore Год назад

Morels are so good! Oysters are good too and so much easier to grow!

@Dhayes48 2 года назад

Hello I'm just about to harvest my golden oysters from my spray and grow kit. If I don't want to cook right away, what is the preferred method to keep them fresh for a couple of days? Ziplock bag and refrigerator or freezer?

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

For short term storage, refrigerate them in a breathable container. For long term storage, cook and freeze them or dehydrate them!

@jcanevari 2 года назад

Could you cut the same pattern on the back side, or sides of the box, and get similar results as the front of the box?

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

Yes, all the sizes just reveal the same thing. You don't need to cut a new opening to get more mushrooms. In fact, we advise not to do that.

@Offspringskaterboy 2 года назад

I've purchased the golden and blue oyster kits and they are currently in the pinning stage. My friend and I plan on pickling them. Does anyone have any suggestions?

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

Ohh, that sounds fantastic. Suggestions, please!

@mirojone 3 года назад

My apartment stays at 69F. What would I best be suited to grow? Pink Oysters, Golden Oysters, or Lion's Mane? I want to grow pink oysters, but I want a successful yield.

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

Hi there! That's a suitable temperature for pretty much any of the kits. While the pink oysters have a preference for warmer temperatures, they'd certainly still grow!

@JFox4587 9 месяцев назад

Mmhmmm.

@jacobwilson459 2 года назад

How do I make my harvested mushrooms into powder, like I would buy online? How long do the harvested mushrooms last before eating? Can you freeze them?

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

You can dehydrate and grind them. Mushrooms last in the fridge for 3-5 days in a breathable container. You can freeze them once cooked.

@elsueniero5922 3 года назад

Can you ship to Colombia?? I would love to buy your products

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

We don't ship live products internationally outside of the US and Canada unfortunately! Our tools and books are available to you, however.

@Jerfmert 9 месяцев назад

I misunderstood the instructions and only cut the X in the plastic, not the stuff inside. How might this affect the final grow?

@phoenixjordan7784 Год назад

Thank you. What about those lil knats, I’ll fkying bugs that keep kill my mushrooms?

@NorthSpore Год назад

If you keep your temps right, space clean and put out traps, they can kept under control!

@Dyingxdawn Год назад

Probably a dumb question, but kind of new to the mycology thing. I could likely harvest spores from a kit and try growing my own after harvest, right? I know it requires some know how and a sterile environment, but I’m just trying to learn as well as eat as much as possible lol.

@NorthSpore Год назад

You should skip the spores and go to tissue culture. Either plates or liquid culture are best. You can even take a piece of oyster and spread it's mycelium on an egg carton.

@Dyingxdawn Год назад

Yep, 2-3 flushes is normal if cared from properly!

@tenorio9671 3 года назад

Hello, fellow mushroom grower here. I've been looking forward to diversify the strains of mushroom that i grow. I live here in the Philippines and it is close to impossible to get cultures or spawns of other mushrooms. I'm only limited to paddy straw and oyster mushrooms. I've seen hope with online shops but do you guys think the spawns can reach me here in the philippines? I'm looking forward for buying almond mushrooms and others. Please reply and thank you.

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

Unfortunately, we're unable to ship most of our products to countries other than Canada, we apologize! Oysters are a great option if you have access to them, however!

@cgardad72 Год назад

Have you figured out a morel kit ?

@NorthSpore Год назад

Nope

@hanzketchup859 Год назад

@@NorthSpore is it because morels are wild and difficult to mimic ideal conditions ?

@Waddles2160 2 года назад

After I harvest my Pink Oysters, can I start over again?

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

Yes! You should be able to get 2-3 harvests from the Pink kit.

@jasonkemmett4608 Год назад

What about the spores released, could that cause problems for people with asthma? Shouldn't it be in some sort grow chamber

@NorthSpore Год назад

Yes but only if you had a handful of kits and were confined with them. One kit in a kitchen, for example, with good airflow won't increase the spore load much.

@cljgarza Год назад

How much water do I spray?

@NorthSpore Год назад

This depends on a number of factors such as temp and ambient humidity, but generally about a third of the little sprayer each time will do it.

@protosgm5325 3 года назад

hmm I have a question , dont we need environment humidity around 90 % for oysters? just spraying is ok?!

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

It is usually enough to maintain humidity levels on the surface of your kit but a humidity tent helps too!

@akademiks1090 2 года назад

How much did those mushrooms weigh? Can we expect to grow at least a pound of mushrooms with a grow kit?

@NorthSpore 2 года назад

Hello! The yield depends greatly on how much care you put into maintaining your kit! It also varies significantly based on species to species and growing environment. The species we carry are all vigorous growers and typically produce a first flush of 1/2 lb-2lbs. Most kits will produce between 2-3 flushes of mushrooms.

@akademiks1090 2 года назад

@@NorthSpore Thank you!!!

@shadowhawk1st Год назад

Why are there only openings on the front? Doesn't the whole substrate have spores? Why not open at least the back as well to harvest even more? Or can you?

@NorthSpore Год назад

By opening it from multiple locations, the block doesn't focus its growth as well and loses moisture faster.

@NorthSpore 3 года назад

Spray and Grow kits are $28. Most kits produce between 2-3 flushes of mushrooms. Once your kit is spent indoors, you can move it outdoors if the weather is warm enough to potentially get more mushrooms! We have a video on how to do that, too!
