Description

White Porecap (Favolaschia pustulosa) fruits as translucent white fans whose undersides carry oversized pores like honeycomb glass, and this liquid culture delivers verified living stock. Out-Grow's liquid culture syringe contains live, actively growing Favolaschia pustulosa mycelium in sterile nutrient solution.

No cultivation data exist for this species, though its trophic strategy, saprotrophy on dead wood, is the most cultivation-friendly there is. The small, thin, gelatinous fruiting bodies never attracted production research; the aesthetics attract everyone else.

Why Work With White Porecap?
Favolaschia has become a genus of broad mycological interest, and F. pustulosa is its elegant white face, distinct from the invasive orange F. calocera that made the genus famous. A living culture supports developmental study of those extraordinary pores, and wood-based fruiting attempts start from the friendliest possible ecology.

Working Conditions:
Expand on MEA or PDA at 74 to 84 F. Expect fine, pale growth. For fruiting attempts, small-diameter hardwood sticks and branches under very high humidity mirror its natural perch on dead wood.

Key Characteristics of White Porecap (Favolaschia pustulosa):

• Ecology: Tropical wood saprotroph fruiting as translucent white fans with oversized pores.
• Culture Behavior: Fine, pale mycelial growth on standard media at warm incubation.
• Collector Value: The elegant white member of a genus of wide mycological interest.
