The Pink Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus salmoneostramineus) is native to Southeast Asia. This mushroom particularly appreciates heat, with an ideal temperature of 25-30°C. It is therefore mainly cultivated in summer in European countries. Avoid periods of prolonged cold which can harm the mycelium.
🎨The fruit colors, ranging from light to dark pink, are beautiful and growing is relatively easy. This variety is robust and resistant to contamination.
❄️ Mycelium conservation: 2-4 weeks. Unlike other varieties of pink oyster mushrooms, this one can withstand temperatures of up to 4°C. The ideal is to store it at 6-8°C and use it quickly.

Our commitment to quality:
We produce our mycelia in laboratory conditions, which guarantees the purity of the varieties and optimal quality.
We produce our myceliums in a 100% organic way and all our products are certified "BE-BIO-01, Agriculture Belgium" by CERTISYS.
🌱 Growing conditions
Pink oyster mushrooms need more heat than other varieties of oyster mushrooms. They grow well between 20 and 30°C. Maintain high humidity at the start of fruiting and avoid drafts and cool temperatures. Their beautiful pink color develops best with high brightness.
🛠️ Substrates
In indoor cultivation: Use pasteurized straw, pasteurized sawdust or other lignocellulosic materials.
We recommend our organic straw pellets which work particularly well with oyster mushrooms, by simply adding 1 teaspoon of lime and 2 liters of cold water per kilo of pellets.
Our wood sawdust-based substrate suitable for lignivorous varieties will work very well too.
📊 Culture settings
Inoculation: 5-10% of mycelium on grains/moist substrate
| Phase | Temperature | Duration | Humidity | Light | CO2 | Fresh air |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Incubation | 24-30°C | 7-15 days. Colonization is much faster on straw than on sawdust. | - | n/a | n/a | n/a |
| Initiation of primordias | 18-25°C | 2-4 days | 95-100% | 1000-2000 lux | 500-1000 ppm | 5 to 8 volumes/h |
| Fructification | 20-30°C | 3-5 days, depending on the temperatures | 85-90% | 750-1500 lux | 500-1500 ppm | 5 to 8 volumes/h |
📚 This data comes from the book “Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms” by P. Stamets. They are given as an indication, each myciculturist having particular growing conditions, there may be individual variations.

Excellent products, very easy to implement. The quality is there and the results are quick to come. Clear explanations. Now we just have to see if the pink oyster mushrooms are good ;-)
Thank you for your feedback in pictures ;) Enjoy your tasting!
My mycelium took a long time to arrive, so I ended up having to plant it in mid-December. I don't know whether the mushrooms will proliferate.
Hello, thank you for your review. Our production times can vary, but we always strive to get orders out as quickly as possible. We sent your order after 8 days, which is quite fast actually. It's quicker than what you can usually expect from our production delay: https://lamycosphere.com/pages/delais-de-livraison
We understand your concern about planting in mid-December, but our mycelium is known for its resilience and adaptability. We hope that you will still have a successful harvest. Thank you for choosing our product.

Good, but much less colonized and qualitative than the last times.
Good morning,
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed our product, although we are sorry to hear that it did not meet your expectations this time. The pink oyster mycelium may have a less dense and less white appearance than the gray oysters, and they can be a bit more delicate to fruit. Temperature also plays an important role at this level. Please feel free to contact us if you need help achieving better results. Thank you again and have a great day!
