Our petri dishes consist of an MPA medium and are colonized by the mycelium of the chosen variety. These are first-generation mycelium.
You can use them with our sterilized grain bags or our gel culture media
Our mycelium is produced in a laboratory to ensure its quality and the absence of any contamination. Additionally, all cultures are tested before use.
Storage
We recommend storing them in the fridge and using them within 12 months maximum. However, it is preferable to use them sooner.
We protect the petri dish bags with bubble wrap to prevent breakage during transport, but it remains a fragile product.
If the order contains other heavy items that may damage the dishes, we reserve the right to remove the item from the order or add an additional shipping fee to send it in a separate package.
Note: All warranty claims must be submitted with the dishes still sealed in their plastic within 5 days of receipt.
