  • Myco-Mister Mini Humidifier Kit Myco-Mister Mini Humidifier Kit

    North Spore Myco-Mister Mini Humidifier Kit

    The Myco-Mister Mini is an ultrasonic humidifier that provides optimal hydration for your indoor grow. Its ultra-fine mist improves overall mushroom quality while reducing blotch and other diseases, and its three settings allow you to adjust humidity level depending on mushroom species. (Designed for use with the Boomr Bin, but can also be used with other indoor mushroom cultivation systems.) Humidifer kit includes: (1) Humidifier (1) 1" diameter hose (2) Hose suction cups Monotub hose connector sold separately. For best results: Do not fully extend the hose. Make it as short and straight as possible to prevent water from pooling, which can negatively impact the mist. Use distilled or demineralized water or add a demineralization cartridge to water tank. Using tap water with a high mineral content (a.k.a. "hard water") can cause buildup and a fine white dust to be emitted. Read all maintenance and storage instructions (below) to extent the life of your humidifier. Specifications: Capacity: 4L 110-240V; 50/60Hz Max Usage Area: 215 Sq ft Max Evaporation: 380ml/H Power: AC Adapter

  • Bulk Organic Millet Grain for Mushroom Cultivation Bulk Organic Millet Grain for Mushroom Cultivation

    North Spore Bulk Organic Millet Grain for Mushroom Cultivation

    Millet is an ideal grain for mushroom cultivation and can be used for making mushroom spawn or as a substrate supplement. Millet has a much lower endospore load than rye and wheat, making it less prone to contamination. And its small size means your spawn will have many more inoculation points for the same volume of grain. By using millet, the mycelium will spread more evenly and abundantly through the substrate. And, as a high-nutrient medium, it also encourages rapid mycelial expansion. Storage: Millet is best stored in a cool, dry place. Because the grains can easily absorb moisture, we recommend storing in food-grade, air tight containers.

  • Pre-Poured Sterile Agar Plates Pre-Poured Sterile Agar Plates

    North Spore Pre-Poured Sterile Agar Plates

    These pre-poured sterile agar petri dishes are ideal for growing out fungal cultures, cloning wild mushroom specimens, and germinating fungal spores.

In addition to convenience, they are also less likely to contaminate your cultures because they are poured in a lab under an industrial-grade flow hood. Storing unused plates: For best results, use plates as soon as possible after receiving them. Store unused plates upright, at room temperature, and away from direct sunlight in the original packaging, preferably in a clean secondary container. (Unused plates can be stored upside down in the fridge. However, this can lead to condensation on the lid which can increase contamination risk.) Storing plates with cultures: Once cultures are added to plates, store them right side up in the refrigerator.

  • XL 0.5 Micron Filter Patch Unicorn XLS-A Mushroom Grow Bags XL 0.5 Micron Filter Patch Unicorn XLS-A Mushroom Grow Bags

    North Spore XL 0.5 Micron Filter Patch Unicorn XLS-A Mushroom Grow Bags

    These autoclavable mushroom grow bags are our go-to for indoor mushroom cultivation and spawn production. Bags are made of 3 ml thick polypropylene plastic and are designed to withstand high temperatures. The 0.5 micron filter also allows for ample gas exchange. These bags are durable and clear enough to make monitoring growth easy and can be sealed with an impulse sealer, or just be tied to the seal. Recommended use (substrate/spawn): Fill half way, then fold the bag over twice. Make sure the filter is not obstructed. Be careful not to spill any substrate on the upper regions of the bag. If you do, wipe clean. Recommended use (log incubation): When growing chicken of the woods and hen of the woods on logs, we strongly recommend sterilizing 8" by 8" segments of oak log in a pressure cooker or steam sterilizer before inoculation. Incubate your sterilized log segments for a few months in XL sealed filter patch bags until they are completely colonized. After colonization period, logs should be removed from bags and partially buried under 2 inches of top soil. The mushrooms will fruit from logs and emerge out of the soil.

  • 'Myco Coco' Compressed Coco Coir Substrate & Casing Layer 'Myco Coco' Compressed Coco Coir Substrate & Casing Layer

    North Spore 'Myco Coco' Compressed Coco Coir Substrate & Casing Layer

    Our dehydrated coco coir was developed for superior mycelial growth, providing optimal pH, moisture retention, even gas exchange, and key trace minerals to your mushroom grow. The first coco coir researched and selected specifically for its mushroom cultivation qualities, Myco Coco can be used as both a casing layer and substrate additive. It is also a world-class substrate for growing plants indoors or outdoors. Triple-washed and buffered to adjust pH and nutrient levels, Myco Coco creates the ideal air-to-water ratio, making it ideal for cultivating gourmet and medicinal mushrooms. RHP certified to guarantee the highest substrate standards in the industry, it is naturally free of pests and weed seeds. Myco Coco is made from coconut husks, is biodegradable, and is a 100% renewable resource. It also contains traces of Magnesium and Calcium that contribute to the overall growth of mushrooms. Coco coir is widely used in mushroom cultivation due to its microbial resistance, ability to retain moisture, and nutrient composition. It is primarily used as a casing layer in monotubs or as a substrate additive. However, it can also be used in garden beds as an alternative to peat moss. How to use: As a casing layer: Coco coir should only be added to fully-colonized substrate covered in mycelium with well-developed primordia and/or pins beginning to form. Only a thin layer of coco coir (1/4 to 1/2 inch) is necessary. In bulk substrate: After rehydration (see instructions below) combine coco coir with other ingredients to your bulk recipe at the desired quantity. Pasteurize or sterilize after combination. IMPORTANT: Dehydrated coco coir must be rehydrated and pasteurized before use. (Scroll down for complete instructions.)

    North Spore Blue Antibiotic Pre-Poured Sterile Agar Plates

    These pre-poured sterile agar petri dishes are ideal for early-stage fungal culture work, including cloning wild mushroom specimens, germinating fungal spores, and cleaning up contaminated samples. Each dish contains pre-sterilized potato dextrose agar (PDA) supplemented with a selective antibiotic and a blue stain that improves visibility of mycelial growth. Blue Antibiotic Agar Plates are designed to help suppress bacterial contamination during first transfers and initial isolation work. The blue tint enhances contrast, making mycelial edges easier to see and evaluate while working through unsterile material. Pre-poured agar plates offer many benefits over pouring your own dishes. In addition to convenience, they are also less likely to contaminate your cultures because they are poured in a lab under an industrial-grade flow hood. Recommended use: Use Blue Antibiotic Agar Plates for early cleanup passes and first transfers from wild or dirty samples. After achieving clean growth, step down to standard agar to confirm long-term culture health and purity. Storing unused plates For best results, use plates as soon as possible after receiving them. Store unused plates upside down in a refrigerator in the original packaging. Storing plates with cultures Once cultures are added, incubate at room temperature until the new plate is fully covered with mycelium. Once fully colonized, store plates right side up in the refrigerator until ready to use (except for cold sensitive species).
