'Rudolph' reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) is our favorite indoor reishi strain! It produces dense colorful antlers and, when given more time and proper gas exchange, will produce brownish-red shelf-like caps. Reishi is an extremely low maintenance indoor species to cultivate because it spends its entire life in a sealed filter patch bag.
Our liquid culture syringes are ~10ml and come sealed in a plastic sleeve with a sterile 16 gauge needle and alcohol wipe.
About liquid culture:
Liquid culture is mycelium suspended in a nutrient-rich medium. Syringes are beginner-friendly and ideal for those looking for an easy way to inoculate grain bags and jars.
Using liquid culture:
For best results, refrigerate upon receipt. Syringes should be inserted into a self-healing injection port. Always handle using sterile technique and shake thoroughly before use. We recommended inoculation in either a still air box or flow hood to reduce the possibility of contamination. If you plan to re-use your needle, sterilize before and after each subsequent use.
