How long do oyster mushroom kits last? ›

Pink oyster mushrooms thrive in high humidity levels of at least 70% (at GroCycle, they prefer around 85%) and a temperature range of 20 to 30 C (68 to 86 F). They are the fastest-growing oyster mushroom variety, and the mycelium often starts pinning before fully colonizing the substrate, sometimes as early as day 9.

Some of the best edible mushrooms to grow at home include: white caps, brown caps, Portobello, Shiitake, Morels, Oyster mushrooms, Pearl Oyster mushrooms, Enoki, Maitake, Lion's Mane, Wine caps, and Chanterelles.

While we recommend fruiting your grow kit as soon as possible, if you need to, you can store your grow kit in the refrigerator for up to 6 months! If you start to see “pinning” ,it means that your mushrooms are ready to fruit and you probably should not store them any longer.

How long do mushroom growing kits last? Each grow kit usually lasts for about 2-3 harvests, but this will vary depending on the variety of grow kit you choose. Kits may produce more or less mushrooms in total before they expire and must be replaced.
