Cultivation Guide — Simple, Clean, and Effective
Step 1: Initial Setup
-
Unbox grow bags immediately upon arrival.
-
Gently loosen the gussets (pull sides apart) to allow proper air exchange through the filter.
-
Place bags on a clean, open shelf in a dry room.
-
Do not store in boxes, bins, or sealed containers.
-
Allow bags to rest for 7–10 days before inoculation.
-
During this time, verify your culture on agar.
Step 2: Inoculation (Precision Method)
-
Sanitize the injection port with 70% isopropyl alcohol (fine mist preferred).
-
Perform inoculation in a Still Air Box or in front of a flow hood when possible.
-
Insert the needle at an angle, allowing liquid culture to run down the inner edge near the grain.
-
Inject 2–10 mL of liquid culture per bag.
-
Cover the injection site with micropore tape, sports tape, or a bandage.
-
Flame-sterilize the needle between each bag.
-
Keep bags upright with gussets loosened for airflow.
Step 3: Colonization
-
Allow grain to colonize undisturbed.
-
At 60–70% colonization, gently mix contents and flatten substrate.
-
After full colonization, apply rubber bands around the base to prevent side pinning.
Step 4: Fruiting Conditions
-
Temperature: 70–75°F (21–24°C)
-
Humidity: 30–50% ambient
Guidelines:
-
Keep bags sealed during colonization (no misting or fanning).
-
Store in an open room with natural air exchange.
-
Avoid enclosed spaces such as cabinets, closets, bins, or boxes.
-
A shelf or desk in a ventilated room is ideal.
Once pinning begins:
-
Cut a 2–3 inch slit on the side opposite the filter.
-
This will help initiate and support fruiting.
Step 5: Best Practices
-
Use bags within 30 days of purchase.
-
Store in a cool, clean place away from direct sunlight.
-
Use only liquid culture or agar (no spore syringes).
-
Maintain sterile technique at all times.
Important Notice
-
Always leave bags on a clean shelf for 7–10 days before inoculation.
-
Do not store bags in sealed or enclosed environments.
If any issue is observed before use:
-
Send a video showing the unused bag and injection port.
-
A free replacement will be provided.
Please Note:
-
Once a bag has been injected, refunds or replacements cannot be issued.
-
Orders canceled after processing will incur a 30% restocking fee on discounted orders over $100.
