Like other oyster mushrooms, blues are among the fastest fruiting mushrooms out there and when conditions are right clusters can double in size within a day or two!  As the name suggests, their main distinguishing characteristic from other members of the genus is their striking blue colour which starts of as a deep blue during pinning and turning to a smoky grey as the mushroom matures.

Usage:

Only one cluster bloomed

A second cluster which took off at the same time stopped growing and dried up even though they were under the same conditions…fun though!
