Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) is one of the most popular gourmet mushroom species cultivated worldwide. Known for its distinctive brown caps and rich, savoury flavour, Shiitake has been cultivated for centuries and remains a favourite among growers and culinary enthusiasts.
This straw-adapted strain has been selected for reliable growth and vigorous colonisation, making it particularly suitable for cultivation projects using straw-based substrates.
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.
For optimal viability and vigorous growth, use your Shiitake Straw 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
