Magic Mushroom Liquid Culture - Zamnesia UK (2024)

Growing magic mushrooms just got easier with our new collection of liquid cultures. Enjoy faster and safer inoculation!

Magic mushroom liquid cultures contain live, isolated mushroom mycelium suspended in a sugar solution (which helps to keep the mycelium fed for some time). Liquid cultures are ideal for inoculating grain media because they minimise the risk of contamination and take less time to colonise the medium.

How Is Liquid Culture Different From a Spore Syringe?

Whereas liquid cultures contain live mycelium, spore syringes contain only mushroom cells (or spores) that, after inoculation, need to germinate and grow to colonise a medium to form mycelium. Essentially, liquid cultures save mycologists a few extra steps after inoculation, making for a faster growing cycle and a quicker harvest. Plus, liquid cultures boast higher germination rates than when working with spores.

FAQs

How long does mycelium take to grow in liquid culture? ›

Within 7 – 14 days you'll see the mycelium has 'clouded' the culture and expanded throughout; this is aided with semi-regular mixing/shaking. This can be achieved by use of a magnetic stirrer, a bolt in the bottom or just swirling by hand. Things you'll need: AirPort Jar – Here is my guide on how to make them.

How do you know if liquid culture is contaminated? ›

Bacterial Contamination, the Liquid Culture is cloudy and after few days nothing grows. If your liquid culture gets taken over by bacteria you'll notice that the Mason Jar will be slightly pressurized. If you have a filter patch, you'll be able to smell that it's gone bad.

How long does it take for liquid culture to colonize in a jar? ›

Inject approximately 1-2 ml of liquid culture into a quart-sized jar of grain. Use 5-10 ml of liquid culture to inoculate a 5 lb bag of sterilized grain. A jar or bag of grain should be fully colonized in 14-45 days, depending on the mushroom species and environmental conditions.

Does mycelium float in liquid culture? ›

Healthy liquid culture is clear with clean white blobs of mycelium floating in it. If you leave the mycelium undisturbed, it will form a large, structured clump. But if you stir it, there will be lots of smaller blobs. The liquid should be clear enough to see through to the other side of the jar.

What is the best temperature for mycelium growth? ›

Mycelium grew best during spawn-running when the temperature was kept at 75° F. (23·9° C.)

How long can bacteria survive in liquid culture? ›

Some bacterial strains can be stored for up to 1 year at 4°C in agar stab cultures, which are especially useful for transporting samples to other research facilities. For bacterial cultures, generally we can store them for few days at 4°C depending on the type of bacteria.

Can liquid culture go bad? ›

Usage and Shelf Life

While liquid cultures can be stored for many months, we recommend using them within six months for the best results.

What is the white stuff on top of liquid culture? ›

When fermenting vegetables, it is common to notice a white layer forming on top of the liquid after a few days. Often this white film is mistaken for mold, and the entire ferment is discarded. However, the white film is usually a type of yeast known as kahm yeast.

How do you know when mycelium is fully colonized? ›

You can tell when mycelium is fully colonized when the entire substrate (such as a jar or a bag) is covered with a dense, white, and fuzzy network of mycelial threads. There should be no visible uncolonized areas or contaminants, and the mycelium should appear healthy and vigorous.

Does mycelium grow on top of liquid culture? ›

Mycelium transferred from agar plates into liquid culture will grow until the container is fully colonised and ready to incoulate your spawn. You can also inoculate freshly made jars of liquid culture with a sample of your now colonised culture to generate even more…

How do you know when a jar is fully colonized? ›

How Does Your Jar Look When Fully Colonized? When your jar is fully colonized, your mycelium—the body of the mushroom—will cover the entire jar. It will likely be white, although the color may vary. Colonization should begin as early as day two of the overall process.

How do you know if liquid culture is still good? ›

If there is any mycelium, it looks weak and poor and not white, aggressive and fluffy. Contaminated LC jars will be cloudy and smell sour. There will be a sediment at the bottom instead of the beautiful cloud formations of healthy mycelium.

How often do you stir liquid culture? ›

Several hours of spinning could be harmful. After spinning new LC for about a week at 7 minutes a day, your LC is ready for testing on an agar dish. I like using 60 mm dishes, small and will tell you if the culture is clean and healthy. Hopefully your LC is clean and can be stored in the fridge for 6 months use.

How long should you stir liquid culture? ›

I inoculated the liquid media using slices of agar of oyster mycelium. Everyday I put the jar on a magnetic stirrer until it whirlpools (for about 10-30 seconds), and there is a metal bolt in the jar which helps it stir.

How long does liquid culture take to germinate? ›

The inoculation process is also far shorter in liquid cultures. You can expect mushrooms to only incubate for 10 days to three weeks, which is significantly less than normal. The level of mycelium growth is practically limitless, giving you a high yield every time.

How long does mycelium liquid culture last? ›

While liquid cultures can be stored for many months, we recommend using them within six months for the best results. In our experience, liquid cultures of nearly any variety can grow even after a year of storage in the refrigerator.

How long does it take for liquid spores to colonize? ›

Colonization. Colonization occurs after inoculation. This is when the mycelium will start to take over the grain that was inoculated with spores. This period usually lasts between 3 to 6 weeks depending on strain and environmental conditions.
