Gourmet and Medicinal Mushroom Cultures (Cauliflower Mushroom (Sparassis crispa))

Look like these reviews cover multiple strains. I'm a commercial grower, I bought 5 strains, Chaga, Turkey, agarikon, Maitake, cordyceps, 4 are growing well on agar, the chaga looks damaged, myc is glassy and only the size of a dime after 2+weeks, the other 4 have overgrown the petri and are now in grain, doing well. Going to mix the syringe and try again with the chaga, not hopeful. The turkey tail is aggressive.Not bad for the price. Other reviews lack detail, lots of pitfalls, variables growing fungi, I'd recommend expanding on agar first, as opposed to directly into substrate, just to see what you're working with. contacted vendor, it seems chaga is a slow strain, they got right back and are sending a new culture in agar.

Got the results I was looking for. I have the results now in a container outside for winter freezing. In spring I'll put into a shroom bed. So far so good. To place them out for wintering; I did feed them with some potash, blood meal and calcium. I mixed a bed with pearlite, vermiculite and a soil mix that is favorable for mushrooms. I used a small amount of molasses and water to set the medium. I have well water, so no issues. Just be aware that city water may have chemicals that are not so favorable for your mushrooms. Get the rye bags for the culture, works perfect.

I was a bit worried as this arrived in the heat of summer. Once I inoculated it into sterilized grain spawn and set it in a hot space, it grew like crazy. I look forward to it hopefully producing mushrooms.

Don’t work at all😢 i’m Working on homegrown mushrooms a lot and I brought this no results. But I still gonna buy it one more time hopefully it can work this time.

The morchella rufobrunnea culture was DOA. I innoculated liquid culture at the same time as two other morchella strains and this is the only one that didn't grow in any of the jars. Too bad, this is the strain I was most hopeful for.

I was starting an experiment with multiple different types of mushrooms. I used the uncle b rice method with all of them because we had a bunch that my mother in law sent us that were expired. Really just tried this for fun, hoping some of the spawn takes of these in the yard and I can harvest puffballs. As I was saying, this colonized the uncle b's rice in 3 days, everything else took 2 weeksish to fully colonize the bag. This was rock hard mycelium in 3 days from injection. It honestly made me think all other mushroom spawn is inferior. Puffballs colonize fast and these are great syringes.I will update this when puffballs come up when and if it happens.

There hasn't been any activity since I ijected the bag. It has been over two weeks

I have other cultures from another source that thrive. This product produced zero.
