Golden Oyster (Pleurotus citrinopileatus) is a tropical strain that thrives in warmer temperatures and tends to fruit in summer months. It produces beautiful clusters of bright yellow caps that are a favorite at farmers' markets. When cooked, they have a mild nutty flavor and aroma that pairs well with most dishes. Oyster mushrooms are great for beginners because they colonize quickly and are reliable producers. 

Plug spawn is ideal for smaller projects of 1-10 logs, though some log cultivators will use them for larger projects.

To grow on logs using plug spawn, you will need a Drill Bit, Log Sealing Wax, and Wax Daubers.

Click here to download our pamphlet on growing mushrooms on logs, stumps, and totems.

Golden Oysters prefer log, stump, and totem methods. Colonization is fast and should start producing in 4-12 months. Golden oysters are a tropical species and prefer to fruit in the summer months. They also prefer softer hardwoods such as poplar and aspen.

For our complete plug spawn pamphlet, click here.

If you don't plan to use immediately, you can refrigerate your spawn for up to 6 months.

Golden oyster mushrooms develop a cashew-like flavor when cooked to a slightly crispy texture. They can easily replace button mushrooms in most recipes and pair well with many cuisines and flavors. Like all oyster mushrooms, they retain water and may develop a viscous texture when undercooked. If you prefer a firm or dryer texture, continue to cook them until their liquid has reduced and cooked off and they begin to brown.

The spawn used in our mushroom plugs is grown on USDA certified organic grain and made with organic cultures from our own culture bank. Our plugs are handmade from a blend of locally sourced, all-natural, organic, and non-GMO woods from farms and forests in New England and North America.

If you’re going to consume home-grown mushrooms, make sure to cook your fresh mushrooms thoroughly with heat. If it is your first time eating this species, it is best to start with a small amount to check for allergies, even if cooked.

Satisfied

I used these plugs on some logs from a sugar maple. After a year I buried the logs under the pathway in my hoop house an was able to harvest little clusters throughout the summer. Good clean spawn, beautiful shrooms.

Good Service!

Communication coming from North Spore is complete and accurate. They told me exactly when my product would ship and it came as advertised. The plugs were high quality and covered in mycelium. I will definitely buy again.

Great experience!!!

Fast and timely shipping, product held up great In The refrigerator while I waited to inoculate my logs in March. As a first timer it was awesome that the different plugs I bought came with recommendations on different trees to use for better success. We will definitely continue using this company!!!
