Blue Oyster Mushroom Straw Log (Living Mulch) Reviews

Smaller logs than the previous company and more compact, love that you guys continued making them just wish they were the same size and density as before

3 mushrooms. It's awesome mulch, my plants reacted instantly. Shrooms wise, this isn't the way to go.

Not as much of the inoculated mushrooms as previously

I guess I'm one of the unlucky few who got a bag of wet straw. The amount of material was fine, and if it had fruited it would have been excellent. However, even after several weeks in an environmentally controlled room there was only the faintest hint of white, and eventually slimy green. Whatever, life goes on, just w/o any mushrooms ;-P

The original ones before BAS started making it themselves were double the size and packed right. Was plenty to cover 6, 45 gallon pots. Now I just put down a new one and it covered 4, but not how I would like them to be covered. I could understand if maybe the mentioned it was less and it was priced accordingly but they are priced more and don’t mention it’s way less. I let the bag sit for 2 weeks and it was barely inoculated, just big balls of saw dust that were inoculated with some straw. Now I gave it 3 stars because it’s still decent mulch, and I need to buy another one in order to complete the job. They should either add way more straw, or make it cheaper though.

I liked the older version of this better when the logs were used and had a ton of mycelium. Now these arrive as wet straw with little to no visible microbial life, which is disappointing. It’s nice to use these right away when you get it rather than having to wait a week or two for colonization, but whatever. It works.

I just put down on my beds a couple of days ago! It was totally different from the first two purchases over the last couple years! No white stuff! Seemed like less as well! Maybe you could let us know when you change it ! At least I wouldn't have been thrown off by the difference! Other than that I have no collected data for you! At this time I'm going to plant my next round in a few days!

It was a little green by the time I got it but I was still able to suffice
