Liquid Culture

Liquid culture syringes are different to spore syringes. Liquid cultures are already growing mycelium that is captured inside a vessel. The mycelium floats around in a suspended nutrient solution, ready to be injected into its new home so it can grow and multiply.

The main benefits of liquid culture is the speed at which the growth after inoculation will be. Although it’s worth keeping in mind during the colder months that during shipping it can hit below 0c so will be slower to start up.

It can be best to start out on sterilised grains and then expand the culture out. This is a very fast-growing, resilient strain and produces absolutely delicious mushrooms. Our shiitake 10ml liquid culture will go a long way for you.
