Description
King Oyster Mushroom Culture
King Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) Mushroom Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh King Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
King Oyster Mushroom Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom culture:
King Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) mycelium appears white on culture media, dense and strongly rhizomorphic with thick cottony colonies and clear radial strands. Growth is fast, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 7-10 days at an optimal temperature of 73–77°F. Growth is highly dependent on media composition and pH — potato palm sugar medium (PPSM) or similarly enriched formulations produce the highest radial growth rates of approximately 0.6-0.7cm per day.
Mushroom Culture Use
Mushroom 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 Culture Storage
Your mushroom 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 culture every 6 months to ensure longevity of your purchase.
Store fully colonized plates at 35–43°F in darkness, sealed with moderate humidity. Plan to transfer every 1-3 months, using edge mycelium for new working plates and preserving master lines on slants.
Mushroom 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 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 culture to fully colonize upon arrival, as colonization time varies by species.
