Our sterile liquid culture vials contain a proprietary in-house nutrient solution designed to promote rapid and vigorous growth of mushroom mycelium. Each vial is pressure-sterilised for sterility and arrives ready to inoculate, ensuring a clean and reliable start to your cultivation process.
 
How to Use This Product:
 
Follow these simple steps to make your own liquid culture or clone a mushroom. (Note: This product is intended for use with our >> Distilled water syringes -- available separately.)
 
Expanding Liquid Culture or Spore Germination Booster
 
Remove tear off sterile cap.
Inject 1-3ml of existing LC into the vial - or 1-3ml of >> germinated spores from a Spore Booster Vial.
Leave to incubate for 7-14 days at 20-25 degrees celsius - shaking gently for a few second each day to stop mycelium clumping.
You will notice strands of mycelium growth in the vial—this is normal and a sign of healthy development.
Your LC is ready to use - suck up with a new >> syringe and inject into a bag of >> sterile grain or our >> all in one mushroom grow bag.
 
Cloning A Mushroom:
 
This product paired with a distilled water syringe can be used to easily clone a mushroom at home.
 
You will need:
Mushroom fruit body to clone.
>> Distilled Water Syringe.
Vial of Liquid Culture Expander and Mushroom Cloning Solution.
 
View the Sporeshift video of the process here :  >> How to clone a mushroom
 
Steps:
 
Take a fresh mushroom and break or cut in half. Don't touch the inner tissue that you plan to clone from.
The core of the mushroom is naturally sterile, meaning we can get a piece of clean tissue free of contamination.
Use the needle of a distilled water syringe to carefully get a piece of tissue inside the needle hole. Push needle into the clean mushroom tissue, twisting as you slide needle in.
Remove needle and inject into Mushroom Cloning Solution vial.
You should now have a tiny piece of mushroom tissue in the nutrient solution. (see product images)
Leave to incubate for 7-14 days at 20-25 degrees celsius - shaking gently for a few second each day to stop mycelium clumping.
You will notice strands of mycelium growth in the vial—this is normal and a sign of healthy development. (see product image)
Your LC is now ready to use.
Suck up some LC with a new >> syringe and inject into a bag of >> sterile grain or our >> all in one mushroom grow bag.
 
Healthy vials of Liquid culture can be stored in the fridge or cool cupboard out of direct light for generally 1+ year and the culture remain viable. Storage viability will differ with species.
