Why Pick Our Phoenix Oyster Liquid Culture?
Phoenix Oyster liquid culture is a great way for beginners to start growing mushrooms. It also offers flexibility that experienced growers like. Our carefully chosen type gives consistent results in different conditions. When you choose our liquid culture syringe, you get strong genetics in an easy-to-use form. Here’s why our Phoenix Oyster liquid culture stands apart:
1. Handles Heat Very Well
Our Phoenix Oyster liquid culture was chosen specifically to do very well in warmer places. One 10mL syringe can start many growing projects with genetics that are good for success in temperatures that are tough for other oyster types.
This special type grows well in a wide fruiting range of 52 to 82°F. It produces lots of mushrooms even in summer when other types struggle. Growers in warmer places appreciate the steady production, and year-round growers like that they don't need to control temperature as much.
Using it carefully helps it spread evenly, which means you'll get consistent mushrooms no matter the season's temperature changes.
2. Grows on Many Materials
Our liquid culture shows unmatched ability to grow on many different growing materials. Unlike special types that need certain materials, our Phoenix Oyster grows well on hardwood, straw, and, surprisingly, used coffee grounds.
This flexibility with growing material makes it great for city growers, people who care about being green, and anyone trying to grow food from waste. The type's strong enzymes efficiently break down different organic materials, turning waste into good food with very little special equipment.
Our chosen type consistently grows fast and produces lots of mushrooms on these varied materials. This makes it the perfect type for creative growing ideas and trying new things.
3. Easy for Beginners
The 10mL size has millions of strong cells picked to be forgiving for growers. Our Phoenix Oyster type shows great resistance to contamination. It grows faster than common contaminants through quick growth and strong spread on the growing material. This competitive advantage makes Phoenix Oyster an ideal first mushroom for beginners or those working in less-than-sterile places.
Liquid culture gives you the most genetic power in a small storage space and is simple to use. For those new to growing mushrooms or looking for a reliable producer with little special equipment, our Phoenix Oyster culture offers unmatched ease of use combined with impressive amounts of mushrooms.
4. Grows Fast
Our clear liquid culture syringe starts one of the fastest mushroom growing cycles available for home growers. Phoenix Oyster's strong growth and quick fruiting response are much faster than other gourmet types. It produces mushrooms in as little as 21 to 28 days from putting it on the material, if conditions are good.
This faster timeline gives quick success for beginners and efficient production for those growing for cooking. Using it carefully lets you start growing at different times, giving you continuous harvests from a small space.
This efficient production helps both hobbyists who want quick results and small producers who want to get the most out of limited resources.
How To Use It
Using Phoenix Oyster liquid culture offers great flexibility in growing methods. This flexible solution helps with many approaches for both new and experienced growers. Here are some ways to use your liquid culture syringe:
-
Directly on growing material: Inject 5mL into pasteurized straw, sterilized hardwood, or pasteurized coffee ground bags. Spread it around to cover different spots. Keep it at 68 to 71°F for 14 to 16 days until it grows all over.
-
Make grain spawn: Use 5mL to start growth in sterilized 3lb milo grain bags. Keep at 68 to 71°F until fully grown, then move it to the final growing material (1:5 spawn-to-substrate ratio) for the most yield.
-
Coffee ground growing: Mix 2 to 3mL directly into 5lbs of freshly collected, pasteurized coffee grounds with 20% hardwood pellets. Keep at room temperature in a filter patch bag for 14 to 16 days until grown.
-
Make more liquid: Inject 2 to 3mL into larger containers of sterile nutrient liquid to make more culture for future projects or commercial growing.
After it grows all over, make it start making mushrooms: Keep the temperature between 52 to 82°F (65 to 75°F is best), humidity at 90 to 95%, and give 800 to 1500 lux of indirect light. Keep CO₂ levels above 1000 ppm for the best growth. Mushrooms usually appear within 7 to 12 days of starting fruiting conditions. Expect 2 to 3 good harvests, about 8 to 10 days apart.
