Description
Giant Puffball mushrooms (Calvatia gigantea) are a type of edible mushroom that are native to North America and Europe. They are typically found in meadows, pastures, and other grassy areas, and are known for their large, round shape and white to pale brown color. These mushrooms have a soft, spongy texture and a mild, nutty flavor. They are typically harvested when they are young and immature, as they become inedible as they age and develop spores. Giant Puffball mushrooms can be eaten raw or cooked, and are often used in soups, stews, and other dishes. They are a good source of protein and other nutrients, and are considered a delicacy in many parts of the world.
Fully colonized MEA agar wedge. This is a small specimen taken from an agar plate. The agar wedge is fully colonized with your mushroom culture. A colonized agar wedge is used in expanding the mushroom culture it is colonized with. When you receive your colonized agar wedge you can inoculate a whole agar plate, liquid culture or sterilized mushroom substrate with it, or store it for future use.
In some cases, depending on the culture you choose we may need to make it. Please allow at least 1 week business time for us to ship out your culture.
