See how amazing functional fungi are with Zombie Mushrooms’ Lion’s Mane Liquid Culture Syringe. This special culture grows into beautiful white formations that look like a lion’s flowing hair. Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is great for cooking and also helps your brain, which is why scientists study it so much.
If you're into healthy eating and want to try functional mushrooms, or you're a cook looking for new flavors and textures, or you just want natural brain support, our 10mL liquid culture syringe gives you lab-checked mycelium. This means you'll get consistent, good harvests of this fungi.
What It Is
This is our best 10mL Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) Liquid Culture Syringe. It has pure mycelium floating in a liquid full of nutrients, ready to use right away, and guaranteed to be clean. Lion’s Mane mushrooms grow in big, flowing white strands that look like teeth. They taste a bit like seafood, like lobster or crab, and have a texture that soaks up flavors well when you cook with them.
The living mycelium in this liquid has been chosen carefully. We picked it for how well it forms those "teeth," how it consistently fruits, and how many good compounds it has. Our special type grows very well.
It also keeps the unique look, cooking quality, and brain-supporting power that makes Lion’s Mane a valuable specimen for researchers, chefs, and health fans everywhere.

Why Pick Our Lion’s Mane Liquid Culture?
Lion’s Mane liquid culture is the most reliable way to grow this mushroom, which is good for both food and health. Our carefully chosen type gives steady results if you use the right steps. When you pick our liquid culture syringe, you get special genetics in an easy-to-use form. Here’s why our Lion’s Mane liquid culture stands out:
1. Good for Brain Compounds
Our Lion’s Mane liquid culture was picked specifically to make more erinacines and hericenones. These are the main compounds that give it its amazing brain benefits. One 10mL syringe can start many growing projects with genes made for these brain-helping compounds.
Scientists are very interested in these for their possible brain benefits. This special type consistently makes mushrooms with lots of these good compounds while also growing well. People who care about health like its possible health effects, and researchers like that these compounds show up reliably.
Using it precisely helps it spread evenly, which means you'll get consistent mushrooms with the most brain-helping power.
2. Keeps Its Great Taste for Cooking
Our liquid culture keeps the soft, seafood-like taste that makes Lion’s Mane a favorite for creative chefs. Unlike some commercial cultures that might care more about how much they grow than how they taste, our liquid culture keeps the slight sweetness and delicate umami flavors that make good Lion’s Mane.
This means your mushrooms will have the full taste experience that sets apart good ones—a mild seafood taste with hints of vanilla when cooked right. Our chosen type consistently has the ideal texture and flavor compounds that make Lion’s Mane a great food find, especially as a good substitute for shellfish.
3. Grows Thick "Teeth"
The 10mL size has millions of living cells picked for how good they look when they grow. Our Lion’s Mane type grows very thick "teeth," making those dramatic, flowing shapes that are so striking. This great look makes Lion’s Mane a good mushroom to show off or use for teaching.
Liquid culture gives you the most genetic potential in a small space and is simple to use. For mushroom growers who want both good looks and health benefits, our Lion’s Mane culture offers a good mix of beauty and helpful power.
4. Get It All Year Long
Our clear liquid culture syringe lets you grow this valuable mushroom all year, no matter the season. Growing it indoors means you can get fresh Lion’s Mane year-round with steady strength. This is a big plus over wild mushrooms, which are only available seasonally and can have different amounts of compounds.
Being able to get it all the time means you can use it regularly for your health without stopping. Applying it carefully lets you do many growing cycles throughout the year, giving you steady harvests of this popular mushroom. This flexible schedule helps both home growers and small businesses that want to reliably produce this sought-after functional mushroom.
How To Use It
Using Lion’s Mane liquid culture means paying attention to what you grow it on and the conditions around it. This special liquid helps with many ways to grow it, so you can get both good looks and good compounds. Here are some ways to use your liquid culture syringe:
-
Directly on growing material - Put 5mL into sterilized bags of wood-based growing material. Spread it around to cover different spots. Keep it at exactly 77°F for 20 days until it’s fully grown.
-
Making grain spawn - Use 5mL to put into sterilized 3 lb bags of milo grain. Keep it at 77°F until it’s fully grown, then move it to wood-based growing material (use 1 part grain spawn to 4 parts growing material) for best growth.
-
Agar plates - Put 3 to 4 drops onto malt extract agar plates. Watch how it grows, pick the strong parts, and keep the cultures to save the type.
-
Making more liquid culture - Put 2 to 3mL into bigger containers of sterile nutrient liquid to make more culture for future projects or tests.
After it's fully grown, make it fruit by lowering the temperature to 60 to 70°F, keeping the humidity between 85 to 95%, and giving it more than 500 lux of indirect light. Keep the CO₂ level between 500 to 1000 ppm for the best "teeth" to grow. The mushrooms usually show up within 7 to 12 days after you give them the right conditions. You can expect 2 good harvests, about 2 weeks apart.
