Species Profile
King Oysters (Pleurotus eryngii) are large delicious mushrooms with meaty stems and tan caps. These mushrooms tend to be trickier to grow than other oyster varieties and do not usually produce a second flush.
King oysters prefer cooler temperatures (10oC to 18oC) and require consistent humidity as they are prone to drying out when they are young.
