Yellow Oyster Mushroom (pleurotus citrinopileatus): A mushroom native to Asia.
Yellow oyster mushrooms are rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals, adding nutritional value to your meals. They also contain ergothioneine, a natural amino acid, as well as beta-glucans.
The yellow oyster mushroom has a unique flavor reminiscent of citrus fruits, with a more tender and delicate texture than its cousin, the gray oyster mushroom.
The yellow oyster mushroom is a tropical variety that fruits naturally when temperatures reach 18 to 25°. It withstands small frosts without problems.
Inter-season cultivation: We produce this variety mainly in the inter-seasons (early autumn - spring) because it appreciates the heat.
Robustness: Resistant variety, it is less subject to contamination.
Caps: The caps measure between 3 and 7 cm and their color varies from bright yellow to pale yellow depending on the growing conditions.
❄️ Mycelium conservation: 1 month in the refrigerator (1-4°C).

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
Yellow oyster mushrooms require more heat than other varieties. They grow well between 15 and 25°C. Maintain high humidity at the start of fruiting. Avoid drafts and stress to ensure beautiful yellow coloring, which develops best with good light.
🛠️ 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 kg 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 | 20-29°C | 2-3 weeks | - | / | / | / |
| Initiation of primordias | 15-25°C | 3-5 days | 95-100% | 500-1000 lux | 500-1000 ppm | 4 to 8 volumes/h |
| Fructification | 18-29°C, ideal 15°C | 3-5 days | 85-95% | 500-1000 lux | 500-1000 ppm | 4 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.
📈 Productivity
Average harvest: 200-250 g of fresh mushrooms per 1 kg of wet substrate.

I took a huge bag of grain, it was perfectly colonized. Very fast and aggressive start. The bag all white. It's perfect
Even if the delay to receive the mycelium is considerable, it proves to be of great quality and quickly colonizes the substrate (straw for me). Still need to see the fruiting. I recommend
Waiting for the first results
Ok
Very rapid colonization. Cultivated outdoors on a poplar totem seeded in April and already the first harvests.
Just need to enjoy 😁
Magnificent! Totem cultivation is still very little practiced but it is so interesting in terms of the results that can be obtained for a fairly simple and ultimately reduced work :)
