might be an advance agar question
    #1280063 - 02/05/03 01:12 AM (21 years, 1 month ago)

i think my gt agars are going to contaminated.i have got just mycellium from the black parts.so i transfer them in another agar.and it seems they are going to be contaminate.my question is very simple
1)i took directly from the black part on agar. and the mycellium is a little bit fast from the bacteria(it seems )
2)do i have got a chance if i will take a little part from that mycellium who is a little bit fast from that bacteria.and transfer it another agar.
thanks.

burn out.real sorry from you.i ask lots of things every time.lots of times i didnt take the direct answers.people here just start to give an answer and then i ask another part of my question but no answers. sometimes i m a bit nervous about it .but no matter.i ask so simple questions really so simple but this time it seems that i didn t look around and i didn t read the teks.for example this cause a 4 day late for my casings.
one of you just going to say .
a casing layer doesn t include nutrent.thats all. but no one said.a then this time i will going to ask why doesnt a casing layer include nutrients ?
u see .so simple way to learn what s happen
i ask because i try to understant what happens.
and also i have got a patience for to wait 4 day.it is nothing at the end.
but if you give the direct answers of my questions i will go on other things.that is more usefull for all of us.

Final pH: 5.8 Potato Dextrose Yeast Agar
250 grams of washed, unpeeled potatoes
10 grams dextrose
1.5 grams yeast
15 grams agar
Slice potatoes 1/8 inch thick
Rinse slices clean in cool tap water
Final rinse with distilled water
Cook in distilled water until tender
Strain and set aside cooking water
Rinse potatoes with distilled water
Retain rinse water, discard potatoes
Add distilled water to make 1 litre
Bring liquid to slow boil
Add dry ingredients

Cooking & Usage Instructions
The flask or bottle in which the medium is sterilized should never be more than 2/3 full in order to avoid boilover.
Plug the flask or bottle with non-absorbent cotton and cover with aluminum foil to help prevent entry of external contaminants.
Sterilize all formulas for 15 minutes at 15 psi.
Remove the medium as soon as the pressure reaches "0." Oversterilization or prolonged heating will change the composition of the medium. Sugars such as dextrose or malt can "caramelize," resulting in a medium that can inhibit mycelial growth and encourage sectors (mutations). Excessive heating of medium can also cause a drop in pH, resulting in a more acid medium. It is possible to destroy completely the gelling properties of agar by prolonged heating, and this destruction is hastened as the acidity increases.
For long-term health and maintenance of sacred strains, alternate any two of the above media. This will help prevent senescence, which can occur when cultures are grown on one medium only. Store strains at 35? - 40?F; transfer every six months. In this manner, sacred strains can be maintained for years.
Never compromise the integrity of your strain library. Strains showing even a hint of senescence should be removed from the collection.

because the casing layer isnt thereto provide nutrition, it is there to provide moisture, your bulk substrate is what provides the nutrients

I have exp , with petri dishes full of an agar based nutrient sollution .
I am a bit confused by your question .
The black part you mentioned and show ...........
Is this where you inoculated the agar with mushroom spores ?
If so ..........
You are harvesting way to soon , wait till you have mycelium actually growing , harvest only the fastest , healthiest , rhizomorphic strands . Transfer them to new media , wait and see if sectoring occurs , if so select the "best " strain again , if not and you are satisfied with the strain you have selected , begin inocing (typo edit) your bulk media .

If that is not where you put spores , it is "contamination" get rid of it and begin again . Also you can use alot less of your spores at the initial inoculation , at most a wispy little grey spot verses a bit black smudge .
Hope this helps , hope I understood your question before flippin the lip .


--------------------
Any information I give is not intended to aide you in the production of potentialy illegal substances !None of my exp comes from growing illegal varities , so take it as you will .
So with that said here is our mission statement .

>sectoring occurs
1)i want to understand what this directly means
2)i think i m fucked up because this is where i put the spores but in the transfered petri dishes it seems the contamination reached the healty side.
3)i m really fucked up because i havent got new gt spores.if i didn tfind them i have to buy again fuck.
4)i put the upside part of the mycellium down when i transfered them .maybe i have got a little bit more chance if i put upside part of the mycellium to upside in another dish.
help needed

You need to do some serious reading to understand , I would suggest you get "THE MUSHROOM CULTIVATOR " , just about any book store can and will order it if you ask .
But to try to help you ,]
Sectoring .... Quoted from TMC .
" When mycelium grows from a single inoculation site and several divergent types appear , it is said to be "SECTORING" . "
We are looking for the ropey , strandy looking stuff (rhizomorphic stranding ) , not the fuzzy , cottony growth . Rhizos are said to be the more productive of the two primary types of mycelial growth , that is why we seek it and stengthen the strain so to say .
For you to fully comprhend this you need to do some reading up , do a faqs search , but try to get TMC , is best way for you to get a full grasp

Here is a photo of a second gen plate of MYCELLIUM


I waited till the ropey strands began to grow together ( almost to edge of dish ) again and harvested it , and inoced grain , I also took a sample to a third dish , and prepped for long term storage . I sussspected I had a great strain ... , I did ! As the crop was awesome from the first batch , very potent ! Not a great yielder , but very enjoyable to eat .
Good Luck
May The Mushroom Goddess Bless All Your Endeavors !
PS Yes you royally fucked up if took a whole spore print on paper and dumped it into the agar , get an inoculation loop and lightly scrape spores from the surface of paper and scrape on the surface of the agar , clean loop each time you touch print and do a new dish . You should smear 4 - 6 dishes at a shot , this allows for some contamed dishes , which you should never harvest from , unless you have exp , in knowing how to reduce the risk of transfering contams to a new dish .
READ READ READ and then read some more before you spend money on spores and fail again . If handled properly one spore print could conceivably smear dozens of petri dishes , if not more ( depends also on size of print ) .

oh yes man i looked totally fucked up .i took the hole print and put it onto the agar surface with my very dirty hands.and a think it didnt stuck there and when i m in the toilet (when shitting)i open it and nailed them on to the agar surface.now i see what i did wrong.
ps:i will have to take book as soon as possible.i know thank you for your explenatory sentences.and your open mindedness

You really do agar work while taking a shit? How is that working for you? Half the time I think you're just trying to test our patience. :confused: :confused:

Yes , I hope you were just insulting your ignorance with that coment about taking a shit while doing isolations . Otherwise I wasted time trying to be helpful in educating the needy !  :confused:  :mad:

Three (3) posts back you make coment about "dirty hands" , doing cultures while taking a shit ! Sounds as if you are being smart ass and do not truly appreciate the time it takes one to assist you .
If trying to make fun of yourself for doing such a sinfull mistake , you have strange sense of humor .
Agar work requires being very clean and determined in doing the best possible isolation one can create , without all is a waste !
I do not mind helping , but if you just want to waste time , and not truly "learn" , go to another category .

I'm done for today , get the book , read , read , and read some more .
Catch ya later

NO! One print is good for hundreds of plates.
