Establish your own working master culture with our premium Lion's Mane Agar Plate grown on Malt Extract Agar (MEA). Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is produced from carefully selected commercial fruiting genetics chosen for vigorous mycelial growth, dense fruiting, excellent biological efficiency, and consistent yields. This freshly prepared, actively growing Petri dish provides a clean starting point for expanding onto agar, preparing liquid cultures, inoculating grain spawn, or maintaining long-term culture storage.

Every agar plate is prepared under strict sterile laboratory conditions and inspected before shipment to ensure a healthy, actively growing colony. Lion's Mane is prized for its cascading white spines, delicate seafood-like flavor, and popularity among gourmet and functional mushroom cultivators. Agar plates are ideal for experienced cultivators, researchers, educational laboratories, and commercial mushroom growers seeking to preserve and propagate stable genetics without relying on spores.

Available Varieties:

  • LM-A — bred for fast growth, colonizing and fruiting quickly, though it typically produces somewhat smaller fruiting bodies.
  • LM-B — bred for larger fruiting bodies, though it has a longer incubation period and grows more slowly than LM-A.

Select your preferred variety from the options above.

Freshly Prepared:

To provide the healthiest possible culture, every Petri dish is prepared fresh to order. Please allow approximately 2 weeks for preparation, incubation, quality inspection, and packaging before shipment.
