Featured cultures

Gourmet & specialty strains

Blue Oyster Liquid Culture — The Mushroom Lab

Blue Oyster Liquid Culture

Pleurotus ostreatus var. columbinus

Fast, forgiving, and dramatic — silvery blue-grey clusters that fruit readily on straw or hardwood. A great culture to start with.

Lion's Mane Liquid Culture — The Mushroom Lab

Lion's Mane Liquid Culture

Hericium erinaceus

Shaggy white cascades of icicle-like spines with a sweet, seafood-like flavour. Fruits beautifully on supplemented hardwood.

Golden Oyster Liquid Culture — The Mushroom Lab

Golden Oyster Liquid Culture

Pleurotus citrinopileatus

Vivid yellow bouquets with a warm, nutty aroma. Vigorous and quick to colonise — as much a showpiece as it is a meal.

King Oyster Liquid Culture — The Mushroom Lab

King Oyster Liquid Culture

Pleurotus eryngii

Thick, meaty stems with a savoury bite — the chef’s oyster. Rewards a little patience with large, substantial mushrooms.

Cordyceps Liquid Culture — The Mushroom Lab

Cordyceps Liquid Culture

Cordyceps militaris

The striking orange specialty culture. A more advanced grow that fruits into vivid, coral-like clusters on grain or rice.
