BRF Jars - Organic Mushroom Substrate (1 Ct)

Discover the excellence of our meticulously crafted organic brown rice flour mushroom substrate jars.

Key Features:

Each jar is an 8-oz masterpiece, brimming with our handcrafted organic blend of brown rice flour, vermiculite, sulfur, calcium, and worm casting tea. Sealed with self-healing injection ports and .22 micron gas exchange filters, the jar lids are designed for optimum cultivation conditions. Our jars undergo thorough sterilization, followed by individual shrink wrapping to safeguard moisture and freshness. This protective shrink wrap also serves as a safeguard against potential glass breakage during shipping. Refrigerate these sealed BRF jars for extended freshness – up to four months or potentially longer. We've achieved success with year-old test jars stored in refrigeration. Following the first flush of mushrooms, immerse the mycelium cake in bottled water and refrigerate for 8 hours to rekindle the growing process. Expect 2-3 subsequent flushes of mushrooms from each cake. Included with your purchase is a comprehensive 15-page guide, ensuring your successful use of this product. Inoculate the jar with 1-2 cc of your preferred spore solution. Remember to shake the syringe thoroughly and flame the needle before each injection. Maintain the jars in a dark, cool location with temperatures between 68°-78° until complete colonization. Please note that this is general guidance; specific incubating and fruiting temperatures may apply depending on the mushroom species you are cultivating.

Our brown rice flour mushroom substrate jars are specialized containers filled with a carefully balanced mixture of brown rice flour and other ingredients, ideal for nurturing mushroom mycelium. This mycelium represents the vital, subterranean component of the mushroom that absorbs nutrients from the substrate.

Each jar undergoes a rigorous sterilization process to eliminate any competing organisms and contaminants, allowing the mushroom mycelium to thrive and flourish.

The mycelium, once established, spreads through the substrate, breaking down nutrients and forming the foundational network that ultimately leads to the emergence of the mushroom's edible fruiting body, complete with a cap and stem.

Please note that spores are not included with the jars. You will need a needle and syringe to inject spores into the jar, as no other method is suitable.
