Description
Branched Oyster Mushroom Plate Culture
Branched Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus cornucopiae) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Branched Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus cornucopiae) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Branched Oyster Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Branched Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus cornucopiae) mycelium appears bright white on culture media, with a cottony texture that rapidly develops into dense, thick mats with prominent ropey rhizomorphic strands. Growth is fast and radial, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 4-7 days at an optimal temperature of 72–79°F. Subculture from the most rhizomorphic growing front on MEA or PDA to select the most aggressive, spawn-ready isolates — transfer early as plates can overgrow quickly.
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. Working plates should be refreshed every 2-3 months; slants can go 6-12 months between transfers at refrigeration temperatures.
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.
