Description
Chicken of the woods White-Pored Mushroom Plate Culture
Chicken of the woods White-Pored (Laetiporus cincinnatus) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Chicken of the woods White-Pored (Laetiporus cincinnatus) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Chicken of the woods White-Pored Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Chicken of the Woods White-Pored (Laetiporus cincinnatus) mycelium appears white to pale orange-tinted on culture media, becoming denser and slightly felted with time — some isolates show distinctly orange tones on agar. Growth is radial and moderate, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 7-14 days at an optimal temperature of 72–79°F. Note: the orange-tinted pigmentation can be mistaken for contamination but is characteristic of this species. Verify morphology across transfers as color and texture can shift between plates.
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 35–43°F in darkness, sealed to prevent drying. Plan to transfer every 2 months to maintain robust 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.
