Cordyceps Militaris Liquid Culture
Cordyceps liquid culture syringes are filled with 10cc of robust Cordyceps mycelium. Cordyceps militaris (also known as the Zombie Mushroom) is a captivating mushroom with a rich history in traditional Eastern medicine. It is reputed to offer a variety of benefits, including one of our favourites: enhanced energy levels.
Cordyceps is a genus that includes over 400 species within the order Hypocreales, commonly referred to as vegetable caterpillars or caterpillar fungi. Cordyceps militaris specifically targets insects, developing a small fruiting body measuring 3 to 4 centimetres (approximately 1.3 inches) with a vibrant orange cap. Cultivating Cordyceps militaris is notoriously challenging due to its highly selective and unusual dietary preferences in the wild. Various non-insect substrates have been tested, including beans, lentils, quinoa, and rice. According to numerous reports and empirical tests, rice has consistently yielded the best results, with both white and brown rice being economical and promising options.
Our live Cordyceps Mushroom Liquid Culture Syringe features an isolated biological sample that has been nurtured, tested, and expanded here at Liquid Fungi. Each culture is guaranteed to be 100% free from contaminants, or we will replace it at no cost to you. Each syringe contains a high-output isolated sub-strain, ensuring maximum Cordyceps Mushroom yield and minimising incubation time. With every purchase, you will receive a sterile, individually packaged hypodermic needle for injecting into substrates. These mushroom culture syringes are commonly used by laboratories to transfer isolated biological samples between locations and substrates without the risk of contamination.
Please note that cultivating this strain can be quite tricky, as it does not thrive in autoclavable substrate bags. Cordyceps militaris requires a special substrate rich in protein, calcium, and starch. A minimal substrate can be prepared using nutritional yeast, Azomite, grains, and water.
For Petri dishes, use Malt Extract Agar or Dextrose Agar, and for spawn, consider rye berries, millet, oats, or corn.
