Sterilized Grain Spawn — Ready for Inoculation
Skip the pressure cooker and start growing faster. Our pre-sterilized grain spawn bags are sealed under clean conditions and equipped with a self-healing injection port, so you can go from syringe to colonized grain without ever opening the bag. Less handling means less contamination risk — and less wasted time. The 5 lb size is perfect for larger projects or splitting across multiple tubs — more grain, more spawn, bigger yields.
Specifications
- Grain: Whole oats
- Weight: 5 lb
- Filter: 0.5 micron filter patch for gas exchange
- Injection port: Self-healing silicone injection port
How to Use
- Sanitize the injection port and your syringe needle with alcohol.
- Inject liquid culture through the self-healing port.
- Incubate at species-appropriate temperature until fully colonized (2-4 weeks).
- Use colonized grain to inoculate bulk substrate or fruit directly.
Storage
Store at room temperature (65-75°F) in a clean, dry place. Use within 30 days of receipt for best results. Do not refrigerate. Inspect bag for punctures or contamination before use.
Quality & COA
Each bag is pressure-cooker sterilized and sealed under clean conditions. Representative bags are tested for contamination before release.
How to Use This Spawn Bag
- Sterilize the injection port with an alcohol prep pad.
- Inject liquid culture (1-2cc) through the self-healing injection port.
- Mix gently by massaging the bag to distribute the culture evenly through the grain.
- Incubate at 70-75°F in a clean, dark space.
- Wait for colonization — white mycelium will spread through the oats over 2-4 weeks.
Next Steps: Once the grain is fully colonized, use it to inoculate a bulk substrate at a 1:3 ratio (spawn to substrate).
What's in the Box
- 1x sterilized grain spawn bag (whole oats, 3lb or 5lb)

If this is your first grow, we recommend starting with a All-in-One Grow Bag or a Ready-to-Fruit Block — both are designed for beginners and require minimal equipment. For liquid culture use, you'll also need a grain spawn bag and a substrate bag. Check out our growing guides for step-by-step instructions.
