Here's an image of the creamsicle colored mycelium of the L. cinncinatus I cloned last week:

Glad they worked. Once I have some more experience under my belt growing edibles, I would like one of those cultures. The idea of a an organic meat alternative sounds very exciting. Still curious of the nutrional content though, especially the protein.
How long will those cultures be available? How long, once made, do they keep?

I don't think he was saying free cultures to all. ;p
Cultures keep about 6 months. Give or take.

I don't have a problem paying for something like that.
I just want to know if when I think I am ready, that I will somehow be able to obtain one of these cultures.

Actually, I did ofer it to anyone, myonly stipulation is that people share their cultivation experiences, since this is an experimental species.
I am also open to trades and future offers, though only for edibles.
PM an address and I will ship out when cultures are ready.

WOW! looks tasty, I love chicken of the woods, they sell those at the union square greenmarket from time to time. I like to either saute it in butter, olive oil, garlic, fresh thyme salt and pepper, or marinate it and throw it on the grill.

I'm thinking this could be the solution to world hunger...

Has there been any updates with this culture? I am highly interested in how this one is going. Laetiporus spp. is a mycorrhizal fungus right? So it could take years for the mycelium to fruit, would you innoculate a host with wood pegs? Or am I totally off and it is a saprophytic mushroom?

The culture is doing fine, though I have no plans to fruit it anytime soon.
An no, its a saprophyte. With stump loving species (eg sulfureus) you would peg a freshly cut stump, but I'm not sure what youd do with buried roots (as this one prefers).
I'd like to work out whether sawdust or log culture would work.

I have obtained agar from this species. Thanks armedia!
I have put up the start of a grow log here:
