Shimofuri (Black Pearl Hybrid) Premium Liquid Culture Syringe – 20ml

Product Overview

Experience the best of both worlds with our premium Shimofuri (Pleurotus ostreatus) Liquid Culture Syringe. Also widely celebrated as the “Black Pearl King” or “Marbled Oyster,” the Shimofuri is a spectacular Japanese hybrid crossing a European Oyster with an Asian King Oyster. The result? A mushroom that boasts the thick, meaty, edible stems of a King Oyster combined with the rapid, effortless growing habits of a standard Oyster.

Our extra-large 20ml syringe gives you double the volume of standard industry syringes, ensuring you have plenty of aggressive mycelium to inoculate a massive volume of grain or substrate.

Why Choose Our Shimofuri Liquid Culture?

  • Generous 20ml Volume: Offers double the inoculation potential of standard syringes for larger yields and bigger projects.

  • Elite Hybrid Genetics: Specifically isolated for its stunning “marbled” top caps, thick, heavy stems, and high biological efficiency.

  • 100% Sterile & Lab-Tested: Produced in a certified sterile environment to ensure maximum purity and rapid colonisation.

  • The Ultimate Culinary Oyster: Unlike typical Oysters where the stems are discarded, the Shimofuri’s thick stalks are incredibly tender, sweet, and savoury—mimicking the texture of scallops when sliced and seared.
