Mushroom Spawn Production: The Amycel & Spawn Mate Difference
As the only vertically-integrated spawn producer in North America, Amycel and Spawn Mate never sell what we haven’t grown ourselves.
All of our products are thoroughly tested both at our research and testing facility and in commercial-sized tests.
We test our strains, substrates, and supplements in a wide range of growing conditions at farms located across North America. Once grower-approved for sale, mushroom spawn production occurs in our environmentally-friendly, state-of-the-art facilities in the United States. Each facility was designed specifically to produce mushroom spawn you can trust and — most importantly — help you grow. Contact us today and learn more about the Amycel and Spawn Mate difference.

Mushroom Spawn Production You Can Trust
You can trust Amycel and Spawn Mate. We regularly invite growers to visit us and see just how we make spawn.
Our production process utilizes modern sterile practices to ensure that our spawn is free of contaminants and productive. During each step of the mushroom spawn production process, we produce, incubate, and grow small test batches of spawn and casing spawn to confirm viability and quality.

1. Stringent Raw Material Quality Controls
All raw materials, including the mushroom culture and substrate, must meet the stringent controls established by Amycel and Spawn Mate’s Quality Assurance Division. Pure mushroom cultures undergo quality and genetic testing and raw substrate materials meet exacting standards.
2. High-performance Substrate Preparation
Amycel uses three specially-designed cooking vessels to prepare our high-performance substrate products. Substrates are cooked and sterilized as the first step in creating contaminant-free mushroom spawn.
3. Mushroom Inoculation
The pure mushroom culture is “woken up” from long-term storage in Liquid Nitrogen and introduced into the substrate to bulk up for commercial production. The mushroom spawn is then placed in spawn bags.

4. Spawn Incubation
Once bagged, the mushroom spawn is incubated under optimal conditions. Once spawn is fully colonized it's carefully cooled before being shipped to customers.
5. Inspection and Testing
Throughout the production process, we conduct product testing. After the spawn is incubated, we additionally test random spawn bags to ensure they are free of contaminants. All bags are subject to visual inspection before packing and shipping.
