The King Tuber Oyster Mushroom...A fascinating way to grow a truly exotic gourmet mushroom

The King Tuber Oyster Mushroom
(Pleurotus Tuber Regium)

A fascinating way to grow a truly exotic gourmet mushroom. Using a 4" diameter plant pot (not supplied), simply plant the 'bulb' into moist compost, then place the 'Bio-Dome' on top, and keep indoors in a warm, light area (70degF/20degC). Around two weeks later a white spike will poke it's way up through the compost...!

Native to Nigeria, the King Tuber can be grown throughout the year in any centrally heated home. The bulb (or sclerotia) is a long-term survival mechanism allowing the mushroom to tolerate extreme environmental conditions, such as drought.A

The King Tuber is edible when young, and can be prepared in a similar way to ordinary oyster mushrooms. Full instructions are included.
