Description
Tiger Sawgill Mushroom Plate Culture
Tiger Sawgill (Lentinus tigrinus) Mushroom Plate Culture.
Each culture plate is a 100x15mm petri dish inoculated with fresh Tiger Sawgill (Lentinus tigrinus) mycelium growing on malt extract agar (MEA), and will arrive actively colonizing.
Tiger Sawgill Mushroom Plate Culture Lab Notes
At Out-Grow's mycology lab, we have observed the following traits of this mushroom plate culture:
Tiger Sawgill (Lentinus tigrinus) mycelium grows optimally at 86°F on agar, producing very thick mycelial mats at this temperature — growth rate and aerial density decline noticeably at lower temperatures. Detailed colony morphology such as color and specific texture beyond robust thickness at optimal temperature is not described in available literature. For comparative lab work within Lentinus, incubating at 86°F is important to achieve both maximal radial expansion and the characteristic thick mycelial growth this species is capable of.
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.
Transfer your Tiger Sawgill mycelium to fresh MEA every 3–6 months to keep your culture healthy and vigorous.
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.
