I don't know, those cream-colored blobs look like primordia pressing against the petri surface. That's just how it seems from the picture, could be agar pieces. Yeah, the only species I've seen that forms thicker mycelium than reishi is Hypsizygus ulmarius. It took me half an hour to cut it out of a jar with a sharp knife. Like cutting rock. EM, I remember you saying that you'd like to try a different strain of reishi. I just got one from lipa, it's on agar now, I can send you a wedge when it grows out if you want.

Tea and extracts if I end up harvesting enough.
Here are the pictures I promised of the new 115L Reishi SGFC. The two blocks in the back are the pasteurized blocks, the two in the front are the supplemented blocks.
To allow for light to reach the reishi I cut a small window and taped some plastic sheeting over it as show below:

I have enjoyed watching them grow and the amount of work involved to grow reishi from pasteurized fuel pellets was very minimal. Next time around I plan to make 5-10 blocks just because I can.

Almost two months since inoculation, made on Feb 4th, started fruiting on Feb 18th and here we are now April 1st. Both pasteurized bags were made on the same day.
The supplemented bags were inoculated on Feb 9th, started fruiting around March 1st.
It seems that the environmental conditions of a SGFC speeds up the progress of coloring and growth as both pasteurized blocks were made the same at the same time fruited around the same time etc. Only variable between that block and the other is I placed it in the SGFC on March 14th.

Yea, Ray is funny as hell,
"that's the way she goes boys" . "Fuckin' way she goes"....
Have you been drinking Ray? "I've had a few"
The bible salesman asks Ray if Bubbles is ok in the head:
"Are you kidding me, sharpest guy in the whole trailer park"
And one of my favourite Ricky quotes was when someone was gonna pick up some booze for him:
"Yeah get me a 40 of anything"
