| Rack and Bag for Singles | |
| This method was developed for substrate types that do not support beach culture. Essentially, it involves growing single oysters in polyethylene grow-out bags that are clipped to rebar racks designed to accommodate four bags laid side-by-side. With hard beach conditions, racks may not be needed and the bags can be fastened directly to the ground. | ![]() |
| Rolling for Singles | |
| Oyster baskets, also known as oyster tubes, have a shape designed to create a "tumbling" which develops a well cupped oyster with a clean shell and high meat content. | ![]() |
