How it works

01

Choose fresh or dried specimen.

02

Record the collection and ship it promptly.

03

We isolate clean growth and return a labeled agar plate.

What you send

A fresh or dried mushroom plus collection date, place, substrate or host, and field notes.

What you get

One clean agar plate and a collection record tied to your find.

Turnaround and shipping

Lab work begins when your specimen arrives. Allow up to 90 days. Dried or contaminated specimens need a longer process and more transfers before a clean culture is ready to ship.

How to ship it to us

Keep a fresh specimen cool and dry, never sealed wet in plastic. Wrap it loosely in clean paper and place it in a rigid box. Dried specimens should be fully dry and protected from crushing. We send the lab address after checkout.
