Florida Oyster, Pleurotus florida ; Culture on MYA Plate | Heat Tolerant Genetics | "PO-FL"
Jacksonville Grown | Small Batch | Support Available | Florida-Focused Learning
Transfers made to order: on MYA plate
You Receive 1 Fresh 100mm MYA dish of Pleurotus florida mycelium ready for your further expansion.
A proven, heat-tolerant Pleurotus florida strain that's earned its place as a staple in the SFF rotation. Florida Oyster is the Oyster mushroom built for swampy climates: proven in Florida.
This strain colonizes fast, pins reliably across flushes, and works on a wide range of substrates. It's one of the most forgiving and productive species in the genus — and in a warm, Southern climate, it may well be your most consistent warm-weather producer.
Cultivation Overview
Florida Oyster is highly adaptable. Straw, supplemented hardwood, HWFP, coco coir blends — this species handles a wide substrate range with ease. Colonization is aggressive and the mycelium is vigorous from the start. A strong choice for growers at any experience level, and an essential species for anyone cultivating through Southern summers.
Fruiting Conditions
Temperature: 64–90°F (active Florida summer fruiting documented)
Humidity: 55–90% relative humidity during fruiting
Light: Indirect or diffused light is sufficient
Fresh Air Exchange: Moderate to high — supports cap development and prevents overlay
Characteristics
Pleurotus florida — distinct species from Pearl Oyster
Thrives in heat — documented Florida summer performance
Fast colonization, aggressive mycelium
Strong yields across multiple flushes
Wide substrate compatibility
Ideal For
Growers in warm, Southern, or humid climates
Summer cultivation when other species stall
Farmers market and restaurant producers
Beginner and experienced growers alike
If you're growing in the South and you're not running Florida Oyster through summer, you're making your season harder than it needs to be. This is the workhorse.
Grow clean cultures. Grow proven genetics.
