Wine Cap Mushroom Liquid Culture Syringe
Zoom
| Species difficulty | Beginner |
| Volume | 10 cc / 10 ml |
| Lab skills | Beginner |
| Shelf life | 2 months (refrigerated) |
Wine Cap (Stropharia rugoso-annulata) is a delicious mushroom with a mild, earthy, and nutty flavor (some even describe the flavor as a cross between artichokes and potatoes.) It is an ideal mushroom for beginners as it colonizes quickly and yields reliable flushes. Wine Caps are also good for commercial cultivation grown on straw or wood chips.
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.

Bought a Wine Cap syringe in July after a few glasses of, well, real wine.....Waaay too early for growing in Central Texas, but that's just how I roll! Getting on towards the fall now so I'm expanding said syringe onto an agar plate (about to try making my first slants, we'll see how that goes! Love this hobby and all the science-adjacent experimenting I get to do!) and some 4% Malt Extract/Dextrose Liquid Culture jars. Happy to report the jars are full of happy little mycelium blobs - excellent quality stuff as always North Spore! Next step is to expand further onto several bags of grain using those floating clouds of shroomy goodness. As soon as my furthest back raised vegetable beds are shaded I'll dig them out and put about 5" of pasteurized straw down, add a grain bag and give it a good mix, layer in some pre-soaked alder and pecan chips combined with another bag of grain and top the whole bed off with a layer of straw mulch. Hopefully we'll finally get some rain by then, but if not I'll keep it watered from the rain barrels until it's fully colonized. Best part is, gonna leave the bed inoculated for the spring veggies! Hopefully they'll continue to grow under a canopy of San Marzano's and help the tomato roots uptake even more nutrients! Gotta love that symbiotic nature of plants and fungi! Can't wait 'til harvest time to see what I get first flush, then see how the different organism's help feed each other! Science Rules!!!!

United StatesExcellent Product
Was worried about ordering mycelium because of the heat dome Texas is in right now. Shipment came in fast, was packaged great and the culture arrived happy and healthy! Can't wait to inoculate my garden beds in the fall for a spring harvest!

After I ordered the Wine Cap syringe I put it in the fridge and after a month I finally got set up to use it. I was very impressed with how rich in mycelium the syringe was and it aggressively colonized the grain bag, I couldn't be happier with this purchase Thank You Northspore!
