Description
Panellus, Bio-luminescent Mushroom Plate Culture
Panellus, Bio-luminescent (Panellus stipticus) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Panellus, Bio-luminescent (Panellus stipticus) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Panellus, Bio-luminescent Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Panellus stipticus mycelium appears pale white on culture media, forming expanding colonies with measurable bioluminescent areas whose size and intensity vary with media composition and culture age. Growth is moderate at an optimal temperature of 77°F incubated in complete darkness — dark incubation is important as light exposure affects both growth and luminescence. High-carbohydrate media enhances both colony diameter and luminescent output, while activated charcoal suppresses luminescence. As with other bioluminescent fungi, the glow is not readily visible under standard lab lighting — long-exposure photography in complete darkness is required to observe and document the luminescence of your culture.
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 to maintain culture vigor.
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.
