'Harbor Blue' oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a very productive commercial strain of blue oyster from Pennsylvania that fruits dense clusters with dark grayish-blue caps. It produces best in cooler temperatures but also performs well during the warmer months. Averages 1-2 lbs first flush off of 5 lb supplemented sawdust blocks but will also produce off sterilized straw substrate.
Our liquid culture syringes are ~10ml and come sealed in a plastic sleeve with a sterile 16 gauge needle and alcohol wipe.
About liquid culture:
Liquid culture is mycelium suspended in a nutrient-rich medium. Syringes are beginner-friendly and ideal for those looking for an easy way to inoculate grain bags and jars.
Directions for use:
For best results, refrigerate upon receipt. Syringes should be inserted into a self-healing injection port. Always handle using sterile technique and shake thoroughly before use. We recommended inoculation in either a still air box or flow hood to reduce the possibility of contamination. If you plan to re-use your needle, sterilize before and after each subsequent use.

Great product
Great product excellent delivery time constantly updated will definitely be buying again
Long awaited success
It’s very satisfying to eat the mushrooms you grew. These just keep producing more mushrooms. I was afraid I waited too long after the substrate was completely colonized but I mixed them up with straw and wood chips anyways. I bought some little baskets so they could come out through the holes and I had some leftover. I placed the remaining amount in a deep aluminum tray with drainage holes and they’re growing better than the ones in the basket. They look a little brown but it might be because they get a little sun.

Arrived fast and intact, first time trying this and it’s going just the way I hoped it would. The mycelium is spreading perfectly and I’m looking forward to what it will grow.

Fast, contamination free inoculation
In a little over two weeks a CC or two fully inoculated a mason jar of sterilized grain, and I did this with 6 jars. Looking forward to spawning to bulk and getting these fruiting soon!
