Spawn is simply a carrier to hold a specific strain of mushroom mycelium in ‘stasis’ until you, the cultivator, are ready to transfer it into another substrate such as a wood log, straw, compost etc. We incubate specialty mushroom strains in our laboratory, then cultivate them into a variety of forms for your use, including sawdust, grain, dowel plugs and pegs. Each of these, once colonized by mycelium, is referred to as spawn.
