California Landscaping Morel Mushroom Plate Culture
California Landscaping Morel (Morchella rufobrunnea) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh California Landscaping Morel (Morchella rufobrunnea) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
California Landscaping Morel Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
California Landscaping Morel (Morchella rufobrunnea) mycelium appears light tan on culture media, with a tomentose to floccose texture — fine, upright hyphae giving the colony a distinctly fur-like appearance with individually visible hyphal strands. Growth is moderate, typically colonizing a 100mm plate notably slower than oyster mushrooms but capable of filling a plate edge to edge given time. As the culture matures, mycelium darkens from light tan toward deeper tan or brown, and older regions of the plate may develop small sclerotia on the agar surface. Incubate at an optimal temperature of 64–73°F.
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
Store fully colonized plates at 35–43°F in darkness, sealed to prevent desiccation. Plan to transfer every 1-2 months to maintain culture vigor.
Store fully colonized plates at 35–41°F in darkness, taped or parafilmed to minimize gas exchange and maintain moisture. Plan to transfer every 4-8 weeks to maintain aggressive growth.
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.
