Description
Liquid culture solution for mushroom propagation (1/2 pint/~200 mL, 1 pint/~400 mL, or 1 quart/~950 mL).ABOUT:
Inject one day and see mycelium start growing the next!
Using as little as 0.5-1 cc/mL of existing solution or a small agar wedge, you can easily retain and propagate the best-performing strains of your gourmet and exotic fungi and put them in refrigerated storage for up to 2 years with little to no impact on culture viability. Turn one 10 cc syringe into gallons of solution within weeks!
Each lid has 1 self-healing injection port and 1 Tyvek-covered port to encourage gas exchange. Other "leak-free" lids tend to be anything but after being jostled in shipment. To remedy this, we apply an autoclave-proof non-water-permeable membrane over the top of the jars before screwing on the lids. The jars are then sterilized at pressure for 1 hour. When you inoculate the solution, you simply insert your syringe through the injection port and pierce the membrane allowing gas exchange to commence. To withdraw your mycelium-filled solution into syringes, insert a sterile needle, tip the jar over, and withdraw the solution into your sterile syringes. It's as simple as that!
Then, use your liquid culture solution to cleanly and quickly inoculate grain/BRF jars/bags, agar plates/jars, or additional sterile culture solutions.
Each jar and modified lid are reusable.
* Due to fluctuating jar availability because of the nationwide jar shortage, half-pint jars may be either short or tall. Surface area is the same for both types of jar and growth potential is identical.

WHY STILLHOUSE HOLLOW FARMS?
We are passionate about what we do and seeing others succeed. A small veteran and family-owned business, we realized early on how difficult it is to maintain a farm when it seems like you need to mono-crop and run a 3000 acre operation just to stay afloat. As a consequence we downsized and sought out niche ag markets upon which we could have a more sustainable and meaningful impact. We've never looked back! Thank you for your support!

Please check your new jar for any signs of contamination prior to inoculation.
We cannot process refunds for jars that have been inoculated.
If you believe there is contamination prior to inoculation, please take photos and send them to us for review. Your complete satisfaction is our top priority!

Liquid culture solution can be left on a dark shelf for months with no degradation in quality as long as the non-permeable membrane isn't pierced.
And, as with most things fungal, cold (but not freezing) storage will extend viability much longer.
