Mycena noctilucens Bioluminescent Mushroom Liquid Culture, glowing tropical fungus for visual display scientific research and mycological education

Mycena noctilucens is a rare tropical species of bioluminescent mushroom known for its eerie green glow in darkness. This saprophytic fungus produces small, delicate caps that naturally emit light as part of a chemical reaction known as fungal bioluminescence. The glow is visible in total darkness and is most intense when the mushroom is fully developed. This species is highly valued for educational purposes, scientific study, and artistic installations.

Important note: Mycena noctilucens is a toxic and poisonous mushroom and must not be consumed under any circumstances. It is intended for research, display, and ornamental cultivation only.

This premium liquid culture contains a clean and active strain of Mycena noctilucens suitable for growing on agar, grain, and enriched hardwood-based substrates in controlled indoor environments with high humidity. It is ideal for glow-themed projects, mushroom art, and fungal biodiversity collections.
