Mar 22, 2018 at 11:15 comment added That Idiot I've seen videos of oyster mushrooms growing in mulch in gardens, but I've never encountered them in direct contact with soil in the wild and unlike some cultivated mushrooms that require soil contact, no commercial production that I'm familiar with includes soil addition or contact.
Mar 22, 2018 at 10:54 comment added Jimmy Widdle So, given that Our Lord in His Wisdom sorted the oyster mushrooms out with nematodes, might it be a good idea to throw some soil into substrate if it looks like it's properly colonised already ? Obviously it might lead to contamination growth, but in an established grow that would be less risky wouldn't it ? Oyster mushrooms have lived with dirt for millions of years, after all.
