Enoki is a mushroom that is well-known for its role in Japanese cuisine, where it is also known as Enokitake. Commercially farmed enoki is a small-capped, long, thin white mushroom. They are grown in darkness and in high CO2 environments to encourage lengthy growth and to keep them pale.

Found commonly across the globe, this saprophytic mushroom is extremely temperature hardy, being able to withstand even single digit temperatures!

It's also quite tasty, and if prepared right, adds a lovely element of CRONCH to some soup.

What Is Liquid Culture?

Mushroom Liquid Culture is a nutrient solution with live mycelial bodies suspended in it. It comes in a filled 10cc syringe with a needle, and is entirely sterile!

Is Liquid Culture Different from Spores?

It sure is! Mushroom spores are the microscopic "seeds" of mushrooms.

Liquid culture is when those seeds have "taken root", so to speak! Mushroom spores are very sturdy, and well suited to storage and transport.

Liquid culture offers you a way to add rocket fuel to your gourmet grows, and get to your desired fruiting bodies much faster!

Looking for spore syringes, instead of liquid culture? Head over here!

How Do I Store Liquid Culture?

Keep your liquid culture ideally in the fridge for up to a year. You can also keep it in a cool dark place for 3~6 months.

How Do I Use Liquid Culture?

Get yourself some substrate, an agar plate, or whatever medium you choose, attach the needle provided in your kit, and inject a small amount into your chosen medium!

When Will My Liquid Culture Ship?

Generally speaking, liquid cultures ships on the next shipping day. Check the calendar here!

Should I Consume Liquid Culture?

No. None of our samples are for consumption under any circumstances.

While our liquid culture is made just from liquid sugars and distilled water, you should never consume it.

What Comes In My Package?

Each kit comes with 10cc of sterile, live mycelium in nutrient solution and a single 18Ga needle for use.
