Coral Inferno Mushroom Plate Culture

Coral Inferno Mushroom (Mycena coralliformis) Mushroom Plate Culture.

Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Coral Inferno Mushroom (Mycena coralliformis) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.

Coral Inferno Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes

At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:

Coral Inferno Mushroom (Mycena coralliformis) mycelium appears white on culture media, forming relatively fine but even colonies with moderate density and typical radial growth. Growth is moderate, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 10-16 days at an optimal temperature of 64–72°F. Note: as a wild-type species, isolates may vary in speed and density — take several transfers to agar and select the most uniform, fastest-growing radial sectors before scaling up.

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 desiccation. Plan to transfer every 4-8 weeks.

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.
