About Black Reishi Mushrooms
Black Reishi (Ganoderma formosanum) is a distinctive species within the Ganoderma genus, known for producing beautiful dark-coloured fruiting bodies with a glossy, lacquered appearance. Like other Reishi species, it forms dense and durable mushrooms that develop characteristic shelf-like growth patterns.
Cultivators appreciate Black Reishi for its vigorous colonisation, attractive morphology, and suitability for cultivation on hardwood and supplemented sawdust substrates. Its unique appearance makes it a standout addition to any mushroom cultivation project.
What Is Liquid Culture?
Liquid culture is a nutrient-rich solution made from distilled water and carefully selected carbohydrates such as light malt extract, dextrose, or honey. These nutrients provide an ideal environment for mycelial growth and expansion.
The mycelium suspended within the liquid culture acts as a living inoculant that can be used to inoculate a grow kit, grain spawn, or suitable substrate. Liquid culture is often preferred because it allows rapid colonisation, efficient expansion, and reliable mycelial growth.
Storage
For optimal viability and vigorous growth, use your Black Reishi liquid culture as soon as possible after receipt.
If immediate inoculation is not possible:
Store the sealed syringe in a refrigerator at 2–4°C
Do not freeze
Best used within 3 months of receipt
Laboratory Prepared
All liquid cultures at Artisan Mushrooms are prepared fresh to order in our sterile laboratory using professional laminar flow hood technology. Every culture is carefully produced and packaged to minimise contamination risks and provide reliable, high-quality cultures for your cultivation projects.
