King Trumpet Liquid Culture (10cc)

$24.00

The king trumpet (Pleurotus eryngii) is a highly dependable commercial mushroom strain, originally cultivated in Japan. Known for its robust yields, it produces generous flushes of flavorful, meaty mushrooms with a rich, earthy aroma and savory taste. While it performs best in cooler conditions, this strain is notably more tolerant of warmer temperatures compared to others. On average, first flush yields range from 0.75 to 1.5 pounds when grown on 5-pound blocks of supplemented sawdust.

Liquid Culture Syringes:

Each liquid culture syringe contains ~10ml of mycelium suspended in a nutrient-rich medium. Syringes are beginner-friendly and perfect for inoculating grain bags or jars. Every syringe is sealed in a plastic sleeve and comes with a sterile 18-gauge needle and an alcohol wipe for easy and hygienic use.

How to Use Liquid Culture Syringes:

  • Refrigerate the syringe upon arrival for long term storage.
  • Use a self-healing injection port for inoculation.
  • Always handle the syringe with sterile technique and shake thoroughly before use.
  • To minimize contamination, inoculate in a still air box or under a flow hood.
  • If reusing the needle, sterilize it before and after each use.

With proper care and technique, cultivating this beautiful strain can be both simple and rewarding.
