Spore Genetics Antler Reishi Liquid Culture Syringe

The Spore Genetics Antler Reishi Liquid Culture Syringe is an ideal solution for cultivating the fascinating Ganoderma multipileum, commonly known as Antler Reishi. These mushrooms are renowned for their unique, antler-like fruiting bodies that are elongated and branched, with a shiny, varnished appearance. Antler Reishi is highly valued in traditional medicine for its potential health benefits, including immune support and anti-inflammatory properties.

This syringe contains a live, isolated biological sample that has been meticulously nurtured, tested, and expanded at Spore Genetics to ensure it is 100% contaminate-free. The culture syringe features a high-output isolated sub-strain, optimized for maximum yield and reduced incubation time. Each purchase comes with a sterile, individually packaged hypodermic needle for easy substrate injection.

Antler Reishi mushrooms thrive on various substrates, including sterilized hardwood logs, supplemented sawdust blocks, pasteurized straw, and other cellulose products. For those interested in exploring different growth mediums, petri dishes with malt extract agar and dextrose agar, along with spawn options such as rye berries, millet, oats, and corn are great choices.

Cultivating Antler Reishi requires moderate temperatures and specific environmental conditions. The incubation phase should be maintained at 75°F - 85°F over 12-14 days, followed by fruiting at 65°F - 75°F with humidity levels of 85% - 93%. This species fruits best in a high CO2 environment, and lower levels of carbon dioxide may affect both the color and shape of the resulting fruiting bodies. With a pinning time of 4-10 days and a total fruiting time of 12-18 days, Antler Reishi mushrooms offer a rewarding cultivation experience for those looking to grow these uniquely shaped and medicinally significant fungi.
