Warm-weather Button mushroom Culture (Agariicus bitorquis)

Agaricus bitorquis, commonly known as the Warm-Weather Button Mushroom, is a heat-tolerant Agaricus species capable of fruiting at higher temperatures compared to Agaricus bisporus. This makes it especially suitable for tropical and subtropical regions, including Indian climatic conditions.

Agripie’s Agaricus bitorquis Culture Plate contains a lab-isolated, stable strain maintained under strict aseptic conditions. The culture exhibits robust mycelial growth and is ideal for research, spawn production trials, strain preservation, and warm-climate cultivation experiments.
