This is a generation 1 grain master mushroom spawn jar used for expansion of isolate mycelium, optimized for spawn run times and bio efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOut Grow has isolated this Turkey Tail culture for strong banding and vigorous wood colonization, whether you are running blocks indoors or inoculating logs outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat a G1 Grain Master Is\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA grain master is a jar of fully colonized grain made to be transferred, not consumed. Generation 1 means the mycelium in this jar came directly from one of our agar plates rather than from another bag of grain, so it sits one step from the culture library instead of three or four. That matters because every transfer is another opportunity for contamination to ride along, and because a G1 jar still has the full expansion runway ahead of it. One quart can seed several more quarts of sterile grain, and those can seed your bulk substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use This Jar\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRest, break, recover, transfer. Turkey Tail is an aggressive wood decay coloniser and expands quickly. It works on sterilized hardwood sawdust blocks indoors and on hardwood logs outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTurkey Tail Growing Conditions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurkey Tail colonizes grain in 14 to 21 days at 72 to 86F and fruits at 59 to 72F. It is one of the most vigorous wood decay species there is, which is why it is so common in the wild on dead hardwood. Indoors it produces thin concentric brackets on a sawdust block. Outdoors on logs it will keep producing for years. The concentric colour banding that gives it its name varies with strain and conditions and is part of what makes it worth growing. It is harvested for tea and extract rather than for the plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpawn run\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e72 to 86F\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGrain colonization\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 to 21 days\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFruiting temperature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e59 to 72F\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSubstrates\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardwood sawdust with bran, hardwood logs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntermediate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSeason\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCool to moderate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage and Shelf Life\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRefrigerate at 35 to 40F.
