My only suggestion to make this even more useful for new members would be to limit, and even better avoid, using shroomery lingo such as MS, PC, LME, etc. those are pretty simple but I know on day one of being a member it's already a lot to take in, spelling out the full word makes it so much easier to understand.





I Agree, anything intro or pictorial for newcomers should be abbreviated and explained for ease of use

i had a few bags of rye that didnt get properly sterilized, needless to say they got pitched, however i thought id throw a grain on agar too see what the culprit was. there was no discoloration present, just that nasty apple/fermented/bacteria scent and excess moisture in the bottom of the bag

so i had a bad jar, but in the name of science/this thread i put it in a shoe box so people could some clear pics of cobweb on substrate, a few days later it looks gnarly



and the immediate effect that 3% Hydrogen Peroxide has on it




Heres a tip that others might find useful, most if not all sprayer/misters use the same thread/pitch as the screw top bottles of H2O2 and ISO


Heres some p. cubensis LC shots



the one on the left is agar broth, interesting stuff i guess a link is in my sig.

and a macro shot of p.cubensis on coir/hpoo

As a side note to everyone, DO NOT DELETE YOUR FUCKING PICTURES IN YOUR ALBUMS. I just had to remove 2 entries in the OP because 2 people deleted the pics in their albums. The site will no longer host the pictures and an error pic will display "This pic was deleted by the poster". If one of your pics is being used, DON'T DELETE IT. :grin:



it might be a good idea to copy their images and store them within your own acct, you never know when someone will get sketched and mass delete pics/posts

PE mutants, hard to tell if the resulting deformations were from genetics/ verticillium /bacteria blotch or a mix of all



i usually get a ton of the blobs during the first flush, they tend to look more like typical PE after that
