Mushroom spores are the microscopic "seeds" of fungi — single cells that carry the genetic blueprint of the mushroom. Our products come in two main forms:
A sterile syringe filled with a suspension of spores in purified water. Syringes are the most popular choice for microscopy because a single drop on a slide contains thousands of spores ready to observe.
Spores collected on sterile foil or paper directly from a mushroom cap. Prints store for years in a cool, dark place and can make many syringes.
Keep spores cool, dark, and dry. Syringes last 6–12 months refrigerated; prints last several years at room temperature away from light.
All of our spores are for microscopy, taxonomy, and research purposes. See our disclaimer for details.
You do not need an expensive lab to enjoy mushroom microscopy. Here is what you need and how to begin.
Spores vary by species — different shapes, sizes, colors, and surface textures. Comparing what you see against published descriptions is the heart of amateur taxonomy. Take notes and photos; over time you will start recognizing species on sight.
