'Popham' elm oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a popular commercial strain that produces highly branched clusters of off-white/tan mushrooms. This strain is very fast growing and yields well in both cold and warm temperatures. Averages 1-2 lbs first flush off of 5 lb supplemented sawdust blocks but will also produce off sterilized straw substrate.
Our liquid culture syringes are ~10ml and come sealed in a plastic sleeve with a sterile 16 gauge needle and alcohol wipe.
About liquid culture:
Liquid culture is mycelium suspended in a nutrient-rich medium. Syringes are beginner-friendly and ideal for those looking for an easy way to inoculate grain bags and jars.
Directions for use:
For best results, refrigerate upon receipt. Syringes should be inserted into a self-healing injection port. Always handle using sterile technique and shake thoroughly before use. We recommended inoculation in either a still air box or flow hood to reduce the possibility of contamination. If you plan to re-use your needle, sterilize before and after each subsequent use.

good spore syringe, excellent results
Well, I did not had the great results getting a colonized grain bag from North spore (the bag was not fully colonized, and my results have ended up being unusable), I’ve had excellent results twice with an Elm oyster mushroom syringe. Very fast colonization of Petri dishes and grain bags, eating and while they’re with excellent, tasty mushrooms using the bucket method. I doubt I will purchase grain spawn from them again (That’s what I get for being lazy, have had great results making my own bags), but I definitely would recommend getting the spore syringes from North spore and doing your own grain bags. You will get great results that way.
