Fufufungu - Shiitake Liquid Culture Syringe: Grow Shiitake Mushrooms at Home With Ease
Shiitake—Lentinula edodes—is a very famous mushroom that is much-loved for its meaty texture and truly delicious flavour. In fact, shiitake mushrooms are one of the most popular gourmet mushrooms in the world!
And, what's even better is that they are also very easy to grow, even for beginners. They grow virulently and you won't have to worry about incomplete colonisation with this liquid culture, as it encourages the rapid and complete growth of mycelium on a substrate.
The ideal substrate for shiitake mycelium is supplemented hardwood (most suitable being: oak, beech, birch, alder, chestnut, pasania). In the wild, shiitake mushrooms grow on trees, so hardwood logs are the best substrate when growing artificially. When growing indoors using bags, the hardwood can be supplemented with oat, wheat, rice bran, or soy hulls to boost yield. If supplementing, go light. A high ratio of supplements can lead to deformed mushrooms.
Growing delicious shiitake mushrooms at home is easy, and it's even easier with this liquid culture.
Includes:
- 1x 20ml liquid culture syringe
- 2x alcohol wipes
- 1x sterilised needle
Recommended Use
- Use within 2 months after delivery. Store in a cool, dark place such as the refrigerator. Protect from UV light.
- 2–5ml per litre/quart jar of sterilised grain.
- Shake well before use. This helps to loosen the mycelium, ensuring an even distribution when applying the liquid to different substrates/spawn containers.
- After use, the liquid culture should be stored in the refrigerator. Dry thoroughly before replacing the protective cover to prevent rust from forming on the needle.
- Additionally, you can heat the needle with a lighter to evaporate residual water, before allowing it to cool. Once cool, replace the protective cover, secure the LC in a ziplock bag, and store it in the refrigerator.
Important Considerations
- While more LC generally leads to faster colonisation, it’s not recommended to exceed 5ml per litre/quart jar.
- For grain still moist after hydration/sterilisation, less LC per litre/quart jar is safer, as excess water can lead to bacterial growth.

to early to ask
what never can be complained about,so far, by me is the delivery of the goodies.
nothing wrong with the logistics. well done, good choice of carrier. so 5/5
no inoculation as yet so no result to judge. so 0/5
total 3/5 but who knows, it could be 5/5
email for this is request was sent to early for judgement seen the product does not germinate within 2 weeks, like hemp does.better to ask, after 3 to 6 months dear crew, if you want a good assessment.
