Lay two specimens on the bench — uses, risks, and whether either has a grow lab.
OpenGentle
King oyster
Pleurotus eryngii
The steak of the oyster clan — a fat stem you sear, with the same gentle glucan bonus as its cousins.
Flavor
Meaty, umami, faintly seafood-anise when browned — a pan mushroom, not a tea.
Symptoms
low immunity, fatigue
Against
Goes rubbery if stewed grey
Days to harvest
14–24 days from a ready block
