Easy Instructions
|
|
|
|
---|---|---|---|
Step1Cut the plastic bag just below the plastic tie, always keeping the rest of plastic wrapped around the log. |
Step2Place the log back into the original product box with all flaps tucked inside the box. Cover the box loosely with the humidity tent, being sure to pull the tent, open side down, over the box top as indicated in the diagram. |
Step3Be sure to mist both the exposed end of the log and the inside of the humid-ity tent at least twice a day until you see mushrooms, using the spraybottlesupplied.In 7-10 days, you should be able to see mushrooms growing. |
Step4When the majority of your mushrooms reach maturity ( the caps begin to flatten out), pull off all mushrooms no matter large or small. Any mushrooms or stems left on the log will become slimy as they decompose and will sicken your log if not removed. |
Growing Conditions
Temperature | 65°F~80°F. Golden oyster is a warm weather mushroom, primordia(mushroom starting points) may not form if temperature is below 65° F. |
Light | Golden Oyster mushrooms need light to grow, The brightness of the gold cap color is directly related to the intensity of light, but do not expose your kit to direct sunlight. |
Water | As long as there are condensation droplets on the inside surface of the humidity tent, you do not need to spray. AVOID OVERWATERING the surface of the log. If there is any water visibly pooling on the log, please remove it. In~7days, you should be able to see mushrooms growing. Once mushrooms start to grow, please do not spray the surface of the log or the baby mushrooms. (Otherwise, they may become withered.) Simply keep the humidity tent moist with condensation droplets. |
pick up | when the caps are about to flat out, pick up your mushrooms! |

Im was very happy with my mushroom kit but the mycillian will not produce mushrooms.
Is my temperatrure here too cold? Its between 45 to 55 outside, but had it inside.
It still looks healthy just not growing
Can you help me?
Delivered: Jan. 4
First Pins: Jan 22
Failure to thrive: Jan 28th
Harvest: None
While I got mushrooms, this kit came to me well short of the “ready to fruit” and “Mushrooms start in ~7 days once you begin to spray”. When received the log was showing quite a bit of brown – I’d say nearly as much brown as white. It was inoculated and mycelium was present, but it was well short of “ready to fruit”. I’ve done mushroom kits in the past and this is the first one that’s taken more than a couple of days to start showing pins.
So, I sprayed several times a day, set up a humidifier to run 24/7, and waited a couple of weeks for the mycelium to finish colonizing the log. Eventually, after 2 & 1/2 weeks the log was showing almost fully white in color and the first pins popped out.
Pro:
• No mold
• Price: at $22 (on sale at the time) it is one of the lower cost kits.
Con:
• Was shipped earlier in its life cycle than it should have been.
• Required weeks of attention rather than days to get it to where it should have been when it was shipped.
• Fruiting bodies failed to mature. After a few days they all wilted and died.
• Failed to produce any mushrooms suitable for eating.
In closing – this kit is a true waste of money. I made every effort to nurse it along despite the failure of the grower to provide a kit that was anywhere near ready to fruit. From the results of my efforts, leading to a complete failure to produce usable mushrooms, I have to believe that the growers are reusing mycelium, rather than new inoculate, over and over again leading to weaker, less productive results. I base this conclusion on my success at having the mycelium completely colonize the substrate with no mold forming to compete. Despite this complete colonization and the formation of pins which did grow to a height of ½ to 1 ½ inches, the mushrooms failed to mature and simply wilted back into the log.
I’ve grown mushrooms before from inoculated substrates and have had excellent results. I spent more time and effort with this kit and obtained zero mushrooms suitable for consumption.
I give this kit one star only because giving it zero stars is not an option.
They grow pretty quickly from having a small ball to a full cluster in a few days. This is awesome because you can visibly see the changes occurring from morning to night which is great for adults and kids to see the process and developmental stages. Itd be a great science project, farming project, foraging/harvesting lesson, as well as cooking!!!
Our favorite way to eat them is to saute them in butter and make a cream sauce over pork!!!
We are on our 5th flush now of the goldens!

Original order was shitake. Had excellent results... Approximately 4 flushes=+/-1lbs each 5 lbs total. Delicious and well worth it.
Decided to order as gifts for friends and they had similar results.
This year we ordered more as gifts. Unfortunately the wrong mushrooms were delivered...
1 quick text to RMF and the correct mushroom log was here in 3 days... They even allowed me to keep the incorrect log which I'm sure will be great.
These guys are the best. If your looking to be introduced to the wonders of growing at home mushies, look no further
