Processing times

Culture plates are ideal for growers looking to make master bags, inoculate grain, make liquid culture, or make more plates.

Beech culture plates are made to order and have a shelf life of approximately 6 months. They should be stored in the refrigerator to maintain viability. Note that mycelium cultures require basic lab skills. Handle using sterile technique to prevent contamination.

See full description of available beech strains below.

NSHT1 - Basic Beech

Hypsizygus tessellatus. Our favorite brown beech mushroom strain. Great for commercial production. These are slow-growing, cool-weather mushrooms (55-65 degrees) and produce delicate, nutty clusters.

NSHT2 - Pure White Beech

Hypsizygus tessullatus. Similar growing conditions to our NSHT1 strain, but produces clusters of pure white fruiting bodies.
