What Is Liquid Culture?
Liquid culture is living gourmet mushroom mycelium suspended in a nutrient-rich sterile liquid. It’s ready-to-use and designed for faster colonization and higher success rates compared to spores. This ensures you get healthy, vigorous growth for delicious culinary mushrooms.
How to Use Liquid Culture:
➽ 1. Prepare Your Workspace
★ Work in a clean environment - wipe down surfaces with isopropyl alcohol and wash your hands or wear gloves.
➽ 2. Shake the Syringe
★ Gently shake to evenly distribute the gourmet mushroom mycelium.
➽ 3. Inoculate Your Substrate
★ Attach the sterile needle included with your syringe.
★ Inject 1–2 ml of liquid culture into sterilized grain jars, agar plates, or liquid media. Multiple injection points help colonize evenly.
➽ 4. Incubate
★ Keep inoculated jars or plates at the appropriate temperature (most gourmet species thrive at 65-75°F / 21-24°C).
★ Mycelium should begin colonizing within several days.
➽ 5. Expand or Use
★ Once fully colonized, transfer the grain to bulk substrate or fruit directly (depending on the gourmet mushroom strain).
★ Cultures can also be expanded into more sterile liquid media to create additional syringes.
Storage Tips:
Store unused liquid culture in the fridge (35-39°F / 1-4°C) with the exception of pink oyster mushroom (they are cold intolerant).
Use within 2–3 months for best results.
Do not freeze.
