Active Air Infused Complete XL Liquid Culture System

Unveiled at the 2024 OKC Mushroom Festival | Limited Introductory Pricing!

Unlock faster, more robust mycelium growth with the Midwest Grow Kits Active Air Liquid Culture System—a professional-grade setup designed to infuse oxygen into your liquid culture, accelerating growth, preventing hardening, and delivering up to 4X more mycelium compared to traditional methods.

Fully sterilized and leak-proof, the system is built from durable, high-temperature components and arrives ready to use. Whether you're cultivating at home or scaling for larger projects, this system is ideal for intermediate to advanced growers who want to boost performance without cutting corners.


Key Benefits:

  •     Faster Mycelium Growth: Oxygen infusion speeds up colonization and promotes healthier structure.
  •     Produces Easy-to-Extract Orbs: Liquid culture develops small, visible orbs that are easy to draw and inject.
  •     Prevents Clumping: Mycelium stays fluid, avoiding the hardening issues common in traditional LC jars.
  •     Enhanced Grain Spawn Results: Transfers colonize grain faster and more aggressively, cutting down your grow time.
  •     Pre-Sterilized & Shippable: Each component is sterile and built to withstand shipping and repeated use.
  •     Scalable: One pump can power multiple jars—perfect for expanding operations.

How It Works:

  1.     Inject your spores, liquid culture, or agar wedge through the self-healing injection port.
  2.     Incubate the jar at 76–82°F (depending on species).
  3.     After 5–7 days, once mycelium is visible, turn on the air pump to begin oxygenation.
  4.     Watch your culture thrive—oxygen promotes small, uniform mycelium growth over the next 7–10 days.
  5.     Once ready, reduce air pump use to 30–60 minutes every 8–10 hours to maintain activity and prevent clumping.

Why Oxygenation Matters:

Traditional LC jars often limit oxygen, which slows growth and leads to clumping. The Active Air system keeps your culture healthy, oxygen-rich, and always ready for transfer to grain or other substrates—saving you time and reducing contamination risks.

Game Changer in LC

I have been growing for 4 years and using LC for the past 3 years. This product provided the fastest, thickest mycelium I have ever seen and quickly colonized my grain jars and bags. I liked it so much, I ordered another.

Great product!

The product showed up with clear instructions - super easy to use. I'm excited for this round of mushrooms!

Professional LC setup

This method of infusing air into LC to improve its health is a time tested process that used to be overwhelming for hobby and people learning about mycology. The biggest problem being that most students or hobby mushroom enthusiasts do not have access to a lab grade sterile environment for prep. The actual process of infusing air is not complex and Midwest has solved the issue of sterile prep! Now everyone can take full advantage of the benefits that active air infusion provides for your culture samples.

It's a great ready to go product that has excellent instructions and makes the seemingly complex process of professional air infusion simple and contamination free! Highly recommend for people new to mycology as a proper liquid culture GREATLY increases the probability of a successful first attempt!

As noted in the instructions the pump in the complete kit provided can easily power multiple infusions. I currently am using a standard aquarium four way splitter to infuse four jars of LC at 500ml each.

Active Air

I?m very pleased with this. I used the recommended 3hrs/1hr time schedule for aeration and everything is taking off even at suboptimal temperature. Haven?t had to stir it either since the bubbles keep the mycelium fairly broken up.

I started with 10cc LC, it?s been 5 days at 65-68F and it?s probably going to be ready to use in a week. Well worth the $35.
