Mushroom Liquid Culture – Lion’s Mane (Hericium Erinaceus)

10ml of Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) mushroom liquid culture in a syringe with a sterile needle.

About Liquid Culture / Application:

Liquid culture is mycelium (the vegetative part of a fungus) that is colonizing and suspended in a nutritious liquid. Mushroom cultivators find liquid cultures highly effective in jump-starting the mushroom cultivation process. The liquid culture is contained in a sterile syringe that can be utilized in many different cultivation techniques. You may inject the liquid culture into sterilized grain jars/bags, substrate bags, agar petri dishes, or even another jar containing sugar water to create more liquid culture. For aggressive strains (like oysters) you’ll be able to even use it to colonize pasteurized substrates directly.

Guaranteed to work:

All of our liquid cultures have undergone rigorous quality keep watch over measures to make sure you receive a viable culture that is 100% contaminate free. If for whatever reason your culture is contaminated or refuses to grow, we can replace it.

Storage:

Upon receiving the culture, store the liquid cultures in the refrigerator until use to maximize their shelf life. Liquid cultures will last 6+ months if properly stored.

Liquid Cultures vs. Spore Syringes:

Spore syringes contain a solution of spores suspended in sterilized water, with each spore having unique genetics. Liquid cultures contain mycelium from a single isolated strain that has proven top of the range genetics. Liquid cultures will provide consistency. Spore syringes provide unique genetics of which you would isolate the best performing strains later on. In most cases you would only need to use a spore syringe if you wanted to create a new sub-variety of a mushroom species and experiment with genetics, as results are unpredictable as the quite a lot of strains compete with each other over the substrate and the strains that are produced may not be of the highest quality.
