This is for 2kg bags of sterilized grain spawn to make you own.
If you want to inject spores you don't need those expensive injection port bags. Just do it from the top away from the substrate and add a double layer of micropore tape.
We now use 100% rye grains used by the top commercial companies in the world. 6 days is our record on colonization.
We will always have a couple of bags in stock but more may take a week.

Rare Pleurotus pulmonarius Native Grain Spawn 1kg
Community spawn is my gift from NZ Cultures to the people of NZ after the sad events that are facing the peoples of the world. NZ Cultures bring you this super cheap spawn to help bring food to the people of New Zealand in a time of need.
This is an extremely rare type of Pleurotus pulmonarius also know as the Phoniex oyster from a private island off the coast of New Zealand. Unlike the oyster found on the mainland of New Zealand, this one resembles P. ostreatus. This mushrooms grain spawn grows much faster than P. parsonsiae giving you much more chances of success.
This is the most prolific P. pulmonarius in our collection so far and has a much stronger flavour than P. parsonsiae.
No other native culture of P. pulmonarius is like this one it is completely different from the native mainland oysters. A must-have and delicious breakfast mushroom.
Pleurotus pulmonarius culture #11
DNA Verified by Landcare NZ and stored in the international collection of microorganisms of plant pathogens using cryogenics.
This mushroom spawn will keep for an extremely long time in your house fridge. Great to keep a bag in case of an emergency.
Please do not grow native mushroom spawn around imported mushroom spawn it is clear this species is complex so there may be some more new names for these natives coming soon.
The imported mushroom is completely different but as they are all in the same Pleurotus pulmonarius clade they are interfertile with each other. Genetic pollution is no joke and has taken over many endemic species of NZ, this type of threat can lead to effectively breeding out our own species. If we all play a helping hand then maybe we can preserve these genetics for future generations.

Ready Made Agar Dishes Wrapped- Pack of 5
These awesome clear ready made malt extract agar dishes are made in a multi-million dollar lab in Auckland. Great for quick jobs and affordable without buying all the gear and going through all that trouble.
MEA Malt extract agar
PDA Potato dextrose agar
SDA Sabouraud dextrose agar
If this product is out of stock we always carry SDA agar plates they are better anyway :) Our supplier carries them for hospitals and always has great stocks. They also inhibit some contaminants. They make Malt extract plates as a favor so they are not always available.
Have fewer contamination rates by excluding your agar making and buy these. They come wrapped in lab parafilm and each one is put in its own bag in a cleanroom.
You should also buy the parafilm 600mm to wrap them back up, you can't reuse the one that comes with it.
Perfect for that home experiment, you can drop a piece of grain spawn in it and watch it grow or try cloning a mushroom.
