only have 2 jars of malabar...
    #12861249 - 07/07/10 10:20 AM (13 years, 7 months ago)

so as the title says, i only have 2 brf cakes of malabar that are fully colonized. how should i fruit them? im only looking for answers from people who actually have an informed opinion and know what they are talking about. Would you fruit them as cakes or spawn to a mini mono? im thinkin mini mono, but ive never made one and am not sure how it would work out.

also, the reason i only have 2 malabar is because i was making ~3 dozen jars and only 6 were malabar, 4 failed :frown:. Most of the others were fine, but are waaaaaaaaay behind the malabar. The malabars were fully colonized after about 6-8 days which is amazing, ive never seen anything like it.

i was thinking of mixing up osme more brf jars and maybe cutting a little piece off of the colonized malabar cake and inserting it into a new brf cake? kinda like a g2g transfer? would this work? im assuming so, but yea let me know your thoughts.

if you only have 2 1/2 pint brf cakes it would not be wise to spawn to a minimono
just fruit them as cakes in a SGFC

also let them consolidate another week. you want the myc to use up all the nutes.

also unless you have very sterile procedure it would be hard to cut do a cake to cake transfer.

yea but i dont feel like building a shotgun ter. just for 2 cakes. as i planned on spawning the rest ofem.

maybe i could make a casing...but then ide still need to fruit it some how.

and why do you think you would need perfectly sterile procedure for a cake ot cake transfer? once the mycelium has taken hold it is pretty resistant to contam..i bet it wouldnt be too hard if i just wiped all my shit down with alcohol

decided im going to crumble each cake into a bag full of more brf mix, then make a mono out of the resulting myc.

That doesn't sound like a good idea to me... just fruit them in some empty 2 litre bottles or something.

a lot better way to transfer some mycelium to your new jars is this http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/12752577#12752577 way less chance of contamination. also look at this http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/12766500#12766500 I used a glove box and was extremely careful and I caught an infection when I broke my cake open. I've been doing this a little while, so I don't think you will have a high likely-hood of being succesful

The mini-shotgun type FC made from gallon milk jugs bottoms and soda bottle tops works just fine. Bottom almost totally filled with wet perlite, you know the drill. One cake fits nicely in each and there is more room for fruits. Soda bottle tops can be too restrictive for some shrooms after a while, so use the milk jug top at the end, or ditch it and mist like crazy. My first 2 cakes grew like that, out in the open for the last 3 days, turned out fine.

Still no real reason not to build a big shotgun. Bulk trays can fruit nicely in them. Pretty much anything you put in there is going to fruit...:shrug:

G2G CAN work, but it is very sterile tek. Gotta be perfect.
I have had better luck running LC from an agar clone. Or even spore prints to syringes.
G2G seems like a pain and not really worth it.

Good grows to you!
