WHAT IS LIQUID CULTURE
Liquid culture is mycelium suspended in a nutrient-rich syrup. The mycelium is alive and growing.
Our liquid cultures are made on Little Acre's in-house recipe and are quality tested to assure vigorous mycelial growth and zero contamination.
Using liquid cultures is a simple technique for inoculating and making your own mushroom grain spawn in bags or jars. We do not recommend trying to inoculate bulk substrate with liquid culture. You should always go from liquid culture to sterilised grain.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Package contains:
- a syringe containing 20mL of Pink Oyster Mushroom liquid culture
- a sterile 18 gauge needle
- an alcohol wipe
- comes in a sealed plastic sleeve
HOW TO USE
For best results, use within 10 days of receiving the liquid culture. Due to the fast growth of this species it's best to use it as soon as possible or the mycelium growth may block the syringe tip.
If you need to store it, it must be stored between 10 - 18°C. Do not refrigerate Pink Oyster mycelium or it will die.
Shake well before use.
Always handle using sterile techniques and we highly recommend inoculating in either a still air box or in front of a flow hood to reduce the chance of contamination. If you plan to re-use the needle, sterilise before and after each use. To inoculate your sterilised grain, the syringe should be inserted into a self-healing injection port.
STORAGE
If you need to store it, it must be stored between 10 - 18°C. Do not refrigerate Pink Oyster mycelium or it will die. Use within 10 days for best results.
