Description
Shaggy Mane Mushroom Culture
Shaggy Mane (Coprinus comatus) Mushroom Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Shaggy Mane (Coprinus comatus) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Shaggy Mane Mushroom Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom culture:
Shaggy Mane (Coprinus comatus) mycelium appears white on culture media, cottony to slightly floccose with dense, spreading colonies and no unusual pigmentation. Growth is moderate, typically approaching full colonization of a 100mm plate in approximately 10-12 days at an optimal temperature of 73–79°F, with poor growth above 84°F or below 68°F. PDA supplemented with sucrose and tryptone at pH 6-8 is documented to produce near-optimal mycelial growth for this species.
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 to prevent desiccation. Plan to transfer every 6-12 months to maintain culture vigor.
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.
Also available as a Shaggy Mane (Coprinus comatus) Liquid Culture.
