What are Liquid Cultures?

Liquid cultures syringes ARE NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION, and consist of mushroom mycelium suspended in a sterile nutrient broth, that carries the freshest, and tested genetics for consistent fruiting yields.

Liquid Culture Storage: Cultures will last for up to 6 months at room temperature or up to 1 year if stored in a tightly sealed bag in the refrigerator (do not freeze). We sell a wide range of liquid cultures of many popular gourmet mushroom species from around the world.
