Strain | Blue Dolphin™ Oyster

Pleurotus ostreatus

Blue Dolphin™ Oyster is a prolific fruiter in the fall of the year that requires near freezing temperatures to initiate fruiting. This strain produces hearty caps of a deep blue which fade to a deep grey as they mature. Blue Dolphin is difficult to grow on loose substrates, but is an excellent choice for log production.
