Spawning BRF cake to grain.
    #5350049 - 02/28/06 03:50 PM (18 years, 23 days ago)

I wanna start my grain grow but I have no spores just 2 cakes Fruiting and 2 almost done colonizing cakes. Everything but the bottom of these cakes are colonized. And one of them bottoms is almost colonized.

I was thinking of either PCing a syringe and then sticking it into one of the holes and shove it into the cake and pull the plunger up to get some myc into the syringe. would this work? Should I have the syringe filled half with water already?

Or I was thinking of preparing the grain quart jars and then Opening them in a ousted bathroom and cutting a peace of and breaking it up and then put it in the grain quart jar and then close it .

Which strategy would be better?  :mushroom2:

I've added small skittle-sized pieces to a grain jar and shook then incubated. Colonizes very fast. I dont know if an ousted bathroom would do the trick, especially because thats where you shit and piss right? I just built a glove box in like 15 minutes and I've had it ever since.

While none of those steps are ideal for that situation, I would go with cutting a piece of the cake off and placing it into the grains. You'll have a hell of a time sucking up a piece of the cake with a syringe so I wouldn't even bother.

If you have the means to make a liquid culture, that would be your best bet. Drop a piece of a cake into the LC and let it work. You'll have colonization within 5-7 days using this method.

Hmmm now that you mention LC that seems like a good idea.

Actually, he really wouldnt have to suck up anything. It's quite possible to do a transfer using a needle, its better if you have a bit larger guage, but an 18 guage needle should be ok.

If you just plunge the needle into the cake (after sterilizing the needle of course) you wont need to suck up anything. You'll have a myc "plug" in the needle. You can then inject that plug into whatever medium you have ready for colonization.

Agar uses something similar called a "biopsy needle" for cloning. This works along the same method except you just use a regular syringe. So as long as you keep everything sterile as possible (k3y) it should work just fine.

Just keep in mind this is not the safest proecudure and you still run a higher risk of contams doing it in open air then if you had done it in a glovebox. If i were you id do like wronguy suggested and use bigger chunks of mycellium if you want to transfer to grains. It's not hard or expensive to build a glove box and the little bit of extra work will give you a faster colonization time and make it easier on you during the transfer.

Once you build a glovebox you'll always have it and it makes shit a hell of a lot easier. Really cheap to make too the expensive part is the tub which is what, 5 or 6 bucks. Just make one and you won't regret it.

Space is limited. I am pretty much out of room with all my tubs. tubs for mushrooming, tubs for meh turtle, 29 gallon fish tank for meh tropical fish. 10 gallon fish tank for meh gold fishes. room for the dieing cancerous dog to sleep, poor doggy. I am limited space to this one room which is not very big. Moldy to lol, no floor insulation is causing mold to grow in the house. I watched a mushroom growing video and they said to Lysol a bathroom which I will oust and then spray bleach water all over it and then let it sit, Then like turn the fan on and let it air out and get naked since my clothes are dirty lol and do my work in that environment.

no room to store a glove box is my point.

Well I took a big chunk out of a cake and put it in honey water. I may have accidentally over did the honey. It said that the water would be yellowish when the proper amount of honey was used well The water kept staying clear now matter how much I put in so I pced it and then it was really really yellow orange ish after, hope that doesn't cause complications.
