Description
Fluted Bird’s Nest Mushroom Plate Culture
Fluted Bird’s Nest (Cyathus striatus) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Fluted Bird’s Nest (Cyathus striatus) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Fluted Bird’s Nest Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Fluted Bird's Nest (Cyathus striatus) mycelium appears white to cream on culture media, with a moderately dense, low-profile radial mat well-suited for disc preparation. Growth is moderate, typically reaching near-full colonization of a 100mm plate in approximately 7 days at an optimal temperature of 75–82°F. Note: light has a positive effect on mycelial biomass — lighted incubation at 82°F improves mycelial density for subsequent liquid culture work.
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 maintain moisture. Plan to transfer every 2-3 months, keeping backup on slants.
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.
