Antler Reishi Mushroom (Ganoderma multipilium) Liquid Culture Syringe for Mushroom Cultivation on Grain or Agar

Antler reishi did phenomenal. Shitake did ok. The lions mane was an upset only reason its not 5 stars. I don't know if there was supposed to be moisture in the package it came in, but there was im thinking condensation.

Received this, lions mane and king oysters. I attempted agar inoculation when I first received. after 15 days no growth was observed. I attempted a second round, ever changing my agar recipe from malts yeast agar to potato dextrose. Still nothing, so decided to throw it under magnification. These images are the result of what I found. It looks like there was possible growth in the syringe, however, it seems contamination has taken place. Plates were inoculated in a positive pressure clean room with laminar flow hood and strict aseptic technique followed. I’d be really surprised if the contam was a result of my inoculation environment. Possibly the syringe froze during transport, seeing as how it is winter… still a big disappointment. I’d say be careful and aware of when you’re ordering these to make sure that you are not paying for what will be received as a ruined spore syringe. Obviously there is a plethora of organic material… just nothing active apparently🫠😢

This product simply put needs some quality control. If you can grow and distribute LCs then you can test your batches with agar. That simple. Please don't waste your money
