Mushroom Experts Liquid Culture 10ML Syringe - Yellow Oyster (Pleurotus Citrinopileatus)

Yellow Mushroom (Pleurotus citrinopileatus)

Yellow oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus citrinopileatus) are a visually striking mushroom variety known for their bright golden hue. Beyond esthetics, they offer culinary benefits as well - upon cooking, their flavour profile can be described as nutty, reminiscent of cashew. 

Physically, golden oyster mushrooms form tight clusters of small caps, so care must be taken when handling to avoid breakage. However, their hardiness makes them well-suited to a variety of growing methods commonly used in non-commercial settings. Home cultivators will find them productive in buckets and reusable containers across a wide temperature range.

Those seeking to showcase the mushrooms' sunny colouration can do so through the use of LED lighting during cultivation. Overall, golden oyster mushrooms represent an appealing choice for beginners venturing into mushroom farming, with their ease of growth and dual rewards for the eyes and palate.
