Chicken of the Woods Liquid Culture Syringe 10cc

Chicken of the Woods (Laetiporus sulphureus) grows like layered fire — fans of orange and gold stacked in shelves along hardwood like embers in slow bloom. Each frond is thick, velvety, and boldly colored, with lemon-yellow edges that soften into deeper orange nearer the core. The flesh is dense yet tender, forming broad rosettes that feel both wild and ornamental, like living coral climbing the bark of old trees.

In liquid culture, Laetiporus develops distinct, branching mycelial growth, more deliberate than oysters yet confident in structure. It favors hardwood-based mediums, gradually building strength before forming its characteristic tiered formations. Under the microscope, spores appear smooth, cylindrical to ovoid, pale yet defined — unmistakable markers of a species tied to forests, age, and seasonal change.

Chicken of the Woods is a mushroom of color and heritage — dramatic in appearance, iconic in the wild, and valued for study in gourmet mycology, wood-lover behavior, and cultural lineage.
