Description
Black Trumpet Mushroom Plate Culture
Black Trumpet Mushroom (Craterellus cornucopioides) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Black Trumpet Mushroom (Craterellus cornucopioides) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Black Trumpet Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Black Trumpet Mushroom (Craterellus cornucopioides) mycelium appears white on culture media, forming thin, wispy, fine-threaded growth that can appear sparse even when fully viable. Growth is slow to moderate, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 14-21 days at an optimal temperature of 54–68°F. Note: the thin mycelium of this species makes contamination difficult to detect early — use magnification or strong back-lighting when inspecting plates and transfer only from clean, actively growing edges.
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, sealed to prevent desiccation. Plan to transfer cultures every 3-6 months to maintain viability.
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.
