Culture Shock: ready-to-use sterile liquid culture kit v3
Description
Description
Presenting: MycoPunks Culture Shock - you’re gonna love this. We’ve created a ready-to-use liquid culture kit that’s got everything you need to expand your spores out and get even more bang for your buck from the genetics of your choice.
This is another top-shelf product from the brain geniuses in the MycoPunks Test Lab: we asked them to come up with an all-in-one and ready-to-use package that would allow someone to hop straight to using liquid culture to grow mushrooms, and here’s what they’ve created (it’s a fuckin’ banger):
You get a jar full of sterile but nutritious liquid culture juice, some sterile syringes and accessories, and 4 of our Easy AF agar pots: everything you need to start your spores going cleanly, before adding them to the liquid culture broth so that you can have as much spore liquid as you like - this is such a cost (and time) effective way of doing things, you’d be mental not to give it a go. It’s simple, but it’s smart.
We’re gonna try out two sizes of this to start with: Small (250ml Jar, roughly 17 syringes of liquid because you’ve gotta leave a bit of room in the jar) and Medium (500ml, roughly 38 syringes full). Drop us an email or throw a comment in our cultivation Discord and let us know which size you think is best, or even if you think we should do other sizes!
What’s in t’box?
- Kilner Jar full of Culture Shock nutrient broth, with self-healing injection port, filter, and magnetic stir bar
- 4x Easy AF agar pots
- 5x sterile syringes + pokeybits and luer lock caps
- 5x alcohol wipes
- 3x hand wipes
If you want to start using liquid culture and saving yourself a fortune, but don’t have access to a pressure cooker, then this is an absolute no-brainer.
✅ Make your spore syringe go at least 17 times further
✅ If you’re smart you could very easily make it go infinity times further
✅ Reusable jars and lids - good for your wallet and the planet
✅ Learn some fundamental techniques for growing mushrooms
Storage:
- Keeps for around six months if it’s somewhere cool, dark, and dry
If you’ve reused the kit and need some more sundry supplies, click on these words and you can stock up on the other bits!
Updates:
- V3: Lid quality improvement, new gasket. New testing process and lid filter with improved adhesive. Easier transport.
- V2: Updated filter to luer lock solid filter and deep injection port.
Cant say anything bad about this company, it is super highly quality everything. the liquid culture is good shizzle, colonises very quickly. ive got designer strains that nobody in britain has, the spores dont even exist any more unless they are from me because I cloned them shiznits ;)
Great product. Easy to use for beginners
Perfect, comes with a nice lot of syringes and needles etc.
I love culture shock, no seriously… I love ‘Culture Shock’ and you stuff is great too!!!
This purchase arrived well before I’d expected it and has done exactly what it said on the tin. For my first purchase from these guys I have to say I’m extremely impressed.
And at the time of the writing of this review, I’ve already been back for more items! Thank you!
Yet again Great product came fast delivery, did leaks slightly from filter due to delivery company not holding it the right way up like the box said 😂 luckily no contamination my myco was ready to support if it did, jar came with stir bar in which is a life saver since with it been the small jar if you try manual storing by slight shake it does leak from filter fast quickly, great customer service guys this is why I only order from yourself
Sometimes there are some issues with shipping, but always promptly solved, higly recommended !
Good
Great service and friendly staff
Great kit
Easy and clean. well packed. Spot on
There dilevery company made one attempt and then sent ot to a shop for colection. If I wanted colection I would jave come to there shop. After it was returned I heard nothing of the company. Useless!!!
A couple of issues to start all sorted out rapidly! Great service & great goods .. happy customer ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Amazing product, and customer service was more than helpful with all my troubles. Definitely recommend.
Bought 2 x liquid culture from mycopunks, working a treat so far 10/10 service will be ording again.
Certy curty
Nice & clean LC ! Exactly as described, thank you x
Everything sterile, just a shame you can't guarantee the spores would be useful to have a few more syringes and easy af agar in the kit- I guarantee it doesn't include enough to account for the natural contamination from spores
Hi George,
The pots aren't designed to account for or transfer away from contamination, you'd need traditional agar plates for that.
The point of these is to identify contamination and if you do get clean mycelium on your first test you can expand to LC.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Chris
Worked an absolute treat for my golden oyster mycelium
Can I inject liquid culture directly into this to expand my already existing culture? And if so, what is the best way to preserve it?
Thank you
Andrew
This is perfect for expanding your sterile (ideally tested on agar pots) liquid culture syringe, simply inject a few ML of your syringe (or the whole thing if you want quicker results) slowly into the jar.
Cheers! - Chris
