A [homebrewer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homebrewing)'s take on practical home cultivation of [mycelium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycelium) and their [mushrooms](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushroom).
|
||||
Mycelium are kind of like a mushroom's roots but this is not an exact analogy.
|
||||
The sole purpose of a mushroom is to release spores as far away from the colony as it can reach.

# Mycelium Cultures
|
||||
|
||||
To begin growing mycelium colonies a clean sample of the mycelium you wish to cultivate must be obtained.
|
||||
|
||||
Any samples of mycelium are potentially contaminated.
|
||||
Even using a microscope and visually checking the entire sample is tedious, error prone, and impractical.
|
||||
A small culture will allow you to grow a test batch of your sample without for a jar of [grain spawn](#grain-spawn-and-substrate) to show signs of contamination.
