Thanks!
About to spawn 2 more [1/2-full] quarts to a 54-qt ezDial... Have five more quarts colonizing and 2700 g oak hwbp bucket-teked in 4.5 mL H2O with which to experiment...I really hope the bucket tek works well: a 4-hour sterilization in the 75x actually takes about 6 hours from start to finish.

Leaving town, if spawning must do so today

I don't see anything to worry about really, even if there is bacteria it almost never is a problem for reishi anyway so I'd spawn those soon before they're impossible to break apart.

Speaking of bacteria, here are 3 of the 6 onos. They are all awash in metabolites.


Do I let it roll and harvest later? Do I harvest now? Do I toss the skanky messes out in the sub-midden?
I will post the other three later...

Just normal reishi growth. Don't be afraid of over-misting, you can't, keep that thing wet!

The white growth edge, or tips, varnishes over and there's nothing growing anymore

Hi Forester and allayall,
This is reishi LC. I would guess that white floating on the surface is a bad thing? I ask because I keep thinking stuff is fubar and you say ok.

Dx? Weird looking, but so are my (ok) tubs.
Suspect spawn tomorrow...

MOrE fucking questions and I am grateful for the support and information. You have been so generous.
Here is where I let the jars get to [couldn't help it had an 8-day business trip when I was already a day or two late to spawn em.

CAN I use a knife to section the colonized mycelium and then spawn each quart to a 3T that has been waiting for 2 months, or to some more monos?

About that LC I dunno it's kinda out of focus to see what's on top, but just test it on agar to find out. I remember when I did my medicinal LC's they would get all kinds of weird stuff in them, cordyceps even grows a scoby on the top. So I wouldn't worry too much, just test to find out.
Yikes that spawn is not gonna be easy to break up as you know lol... I would try to smash it to break apart the grains vs. cutting it, but do whatever you gotta and try your best, it's worth a shot!

Thanks, Forrester. I can try fruit in that 3T bag, yes? Got oak mush and tubs but if it might work, that's one less step.
I'll post tub pics tomorrow when there is sunlight to shoot by.
I appreciate the input.
