Pink Oyster Liquid Culture

They are a tropical and subtropical species of oyster mushroom characterized by their striking pink to salmon-colored caps.

Pink oyster mushroom spores are typically small and elliptical in shape. They are used in mycology for the propagation and study of the mushroom’s genetic characteristics.

Pink oysters have a massive spore load and can quickly cover the whole room with bright pink spores. Pink oyster spores can be obtained through various means, including liquid culture syringes, spore prints, and growing kits.

The liquid culture medium is a nutrient-rich solution that provides the necessary nutrients for mycelial growth. It typically consists of water and various nutrients like sugars, amino acids, and minerals to support mycelium development.

It is a good option because it enables the propagation of a specific mycelial strain, ensuring genetic uniformity among the resulting mushrooms. This consistency is crucial for research purposes, so that is why advanced researchers prefer to use liquid culture.

Pink oyster mushrooms are native to regions in Africa, Asia, and Central and South America. These regions typically have tropical or subtropical climates with warm temperatures and high humidity levels.

Pink oyster mushrooms thrive in temperatures between 75-85 °F (24-29 °C). They can still grow at slightly lower or higher temperatures, but growth may be slower or less vigorous outside of this range. High humidity levels, around 90% or higher, are essential for pink oyster mushroom growth.

That is why, unlike other spores, they shouldn’t be kept in the refrigerator. Maintain the liquid culture at an appropriate temperature for pink oyster mushrooms, typically around 75-8 culture,5 °F (24-29 °C).

Using a pink oyster mushroom liquid culture syringe for research purposes typically involves studying the growth and development of the mycelium, conducting experiments related to mushroom cultivation, or investigating the genetics of the fungus.

With our pink oyster liquid culture, you can observe and record the growth rate of the pink oyster mushroom mycelium in the liquid culture. This may involve measuring the increase in biomass over time or assessing the mycelial density.

You can examine the morphology of the mycelium as it grows. Look for characteristics such as color, texture, and branching patterns. Document any changes in appearance. Take periodic samples from the liquid culture for analysis. This may involve extracting DNA for genetic studies, conducting biochemical assays, or assessing nutrient utilization.

Continuously monitor the liquid culture for signs of contamination, such as mold growth or bacterial contamination. If contamination occurs, it can interfere with your research.

When you order our Pink Oyster liquid culture syringe, this is what you can expect:

• Premium Packaging: Each ~10ml syringe is sealed for freshness, and equipped with a sterile 16 gauge needle and alcohol wipe.
• Superior Genetics: We’ve been working hard to develop the highest-quality Pink Oyster strain.
• Quality Assurance: Every step, from manufacturing to packaging, is infused with a commitment to quality.
• Versatile Performance: Flourishes in both cooler and warmer temperatures, producing up to 1-2 lbs on the first flush from 5 lb supplemented sawdust blocks or sterilized straw substrates.

Pink Oyster mushrooms are perfect for beginners, offering easy inoculation for grain bags, buckets, jars, and even logs.

In general, liquid cultures can be viable for a few days to several months if stored properly. You should store your Pink Oyster liquid culture in the syringe it arrived in. It’s best to use it within a maximum of six months.

• Place the syringe in a cool and dark place, like a refrigerator, to slow down mycelial growth.
• It’s important to avoid temperature fluctuations and exposure to direct sunlight, as they can affect the culture’s viability.
