Penny Bun / Porcini Liquid Culture — Boletus edulis

€16.00

Study Penny Bun / Porcini (Boletus edulis), a sought-after woodland mushroom, as a living mycelium culture. Intended for experienced mycologists working with ectomycorrhizal fungi and experimental host-tree projects.

Format: One 10 ml liquid-culture syringe. Culture only; mushroom images are illustrative.

What is included

  • One 10 ml syringe containing living Boletus edulis mycelium in liquid medium

  • One sterile needle and alcohol wipe

  • Protective packaging for transit

How to use this culture

Porcini is ectomycorrhizal: it forms a relationship with the roots of suitable living host trees. Growth on laboratory media does not establish that relationship or guarantee mushrooms. It is not suitable for a standard hardwood all-in-one grow bag or a grain-to-bulk fruiting method. Use this culture for specialist culture work and carefully planned host-tree research; fruiting is not guaranteed.

Work with sterile tools in a clean workspace. Check a small sample on sterile agar before further culture work. Follow a species-specific protocol and keep clear records of your trials.

Freshly prepared to order

Prepared fresh to order in Ireland. See our shipping policy for current preparation and delivery information.

About Penny Bun / Porcini

Penny Bun, Porcini and Cep are common names for Boletus edulis. This woodland species depends on suitable host-tree associations and environmental conditions. It is a specialist choice rather than a beginner mushroom-growing project.

Storage and handling

Keep the culture sealed and protected from direct sunlight and temperature extremes. Plan to use it promptly. Contact Artisan Mushrooms for species-specific storage advice if you need to delay your project.
