Re: [DIYbio] Re: Spirulina instruction video

I ran into some issues trying to grow this stuff with Jacob Shiach half a decade ago. We doctored a soluble nutrient mix from miracle grow, but it had some unlisted algaecide ingredients that sabotaged the project. I will note that Spirulina is the wrong genus, it's Arthrospira that has the cyanobacteria you want to eat. I think the A. Platensis and A. Maxima live cultures were ordered from Carolina biotech, but home algae growth has gotten trendy enough that there's cheaper sources all over google.

I'm curious on where you got your starter culture from. I

I've heard/seen that there are growers on Hawaii, (the big island), that have been selling to the health food people for decades
and have a steady flow of fresh dried spirulina.  If you asked them, they would probably toss some freshly dried spirulina in an envelope for you.  If not too old, it probably will just revive when wetted.  Try looking them up and sending self addressed stamped envelopes to all of them and see what happens.  Contact me if you want help with the USA postage stamps.
