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 Silver Shimeji Mushroom liquid culture
  • a sterile 18 gauge needle
  • an alcohol wipe
  • comes in a sealed plastic sleeve

HOW TO USE

For best results, always refrigerate your liquid cultures upon receiving them and store them in the fridge.

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

Refrigerate upon receiving and store in the fridge until ready to use. Use within two months for best results.
