A stunning variety that turns heads at any farmers market or dinner party. Cool White Oyster produces bright, almost luminous white clusters with a delicate, slightly sweet flavour and a tender texture. It fruits beautifully in the cooler months, similar to Blue Oyster, but with a more classic look.
This spawn is produced on-site at Urban Valley using Australian sorghum grain, autoclave sterilised at 121°C and inoculated under sterile lab conditions. Sorghum's small, round grain structure means excellent mycelial distribution and faster colonisation.
Storage: Keep refrigerated at 2 to 4°C until ready to use. Do not freeze.
Best used by: Within 8 weeks of receiving for best results. Break grains apart in bag before inoculation.
Grow conditions:
- Substrate: Compatible with straw or supplemented hardwood
- Colonisation: 20 to 24°C, 2 weeks
- Fruiting: 14 to 18°C, 85 to 95% humidity, indirect light, good airflow
