Description
Nameko Mushroom Plate Culture
Nameko (Pholiota nameko) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Nameko (Pholiota nameko) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Nameko Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Nameko (Pholiota nameko) mycelium appears whitish on culture media at first, with a radial growth pattern that develops light orangish to tawny pigmentation from the center outward as the culture ages. Growth is moderate, typically colonizing a 100mm plate in approximately 7-10 days at an optimal temperature of 68–73°F. Note: because center pigmentation develops with age, always transfer from the youngest, still-whitish edge mycelium to carry forward vigorous growth and avoid senescent sectors.
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 1-2 months, always selecting from the outermost edge growth.
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.
