These kits are a great way to show how mycelium spreads and mushrooms grow. We guarantee they they will produce one crop of mushrooms and with care they may go on and produce one or two more crops ( the size of the initial crop depends how big they are when picked and will normally give you enough for a frying pan full ).

It is important that the kit is kept in a warm room and that it is moist ( ideally spray misted ) . It can help to get another crop by putting the book ....in its bag..into a fridge for 24 hours then returning to a warm room.

Oyster mushrooms have a delicate flavour and cook quickly so are perfect for stir fries and light dishes. If you want to add them to a slower, meatier dish, add them a minute or two before the end of cooking.

Oyster mushrooms are also delicious fried with onions on toast or with scrambled egg.
