The caps of pink oyster mushrooms grow quickly, sometimes doubling in size in a single day. Harvest as soon as growth slows down to ensure a tender texture and a vivid color. Pull off the clusters by twisting them. Remove any leftover pieces of stem on the substrate and keep it moist until the next harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePink oyster mushrooms keep for about 2-3 days in a paper bag in the fridge.
