Description
Amber Jelly Mushroom Plate Culture
Amber Jelly Mushroom (Exidia crenata) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Amber Jelly Mushroom (Exidia crenata) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Amber Jelly Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Amber Jelly Mushroom (Exidia crenata) mycelium appears white to off-white on culture media, forming a fine, semi-translucent to cottony mat that remains relatively sparse and delicate compared to fleshy mushroom species. Growth is radial with wispy, fine hyphae spreading across the surface, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 2 weeks at an optimal temperature of 59–72°F. Note: the delicate, low-profile growth of this species can make early contamination harder to detect — careful inspection and strict sterile technique are important.
Mushroom Plate Culture Use
Mushroom plate cultures, typically on MEA culture plates, are used to grow and preserve mycelium. In most cases, sterile transfers of agar wedges from this plate are used to inoculate fresh culture media or sterilized grain spawn.
Mushroom Plate Culture Storage
Your mushroom plate culture can be wrapped in parafilm and stored at normal room temps, in a sealed baggie, for up to 6 months. Out-Grow recommends you replate your mushroom plate culture every 6 months to ensure longevity of your purchase.
Store fully colonized plates at 35–41°F in darkness, well sealed to prevent desiccation — jelly fungi are particularly sensitive to drying. Plan to transfer cultures every 3-6 months to maintain vigor.
Mushroom Plate Cultures Are Made to Order
All mushroom culture plates are made to order. Once your order is received, Out-Grow will inoculate your plate within 1-3 days. Your mushroom plate culture will then be incubated in our mycology lab for approximately 7-14 days, or until clean healthy mycelium has been verified by our mycologist. Once verified, your order will be shipped promptly. Please allow an additional week for your mushroom plate culture to fully colonize upon arrival, as colonization time varies by species.
