c0ri said: You'll have to explain to them that after agar work and isolation techniques, they CAN have myc growth like the pictured myc. BUT typical fluffy mycelium isn't a bad thing, especially for your first grow.
If you're doing agar work, you always transfer from the most rhizomorphic growth, whether it's pronounced or not. That applies to first timers or agar vets

c0ri said: My point was more to the point that most first time growers are going to be using MS from a sponsor and not working with agar and isolates. Which typically leads to fluffy growth, rather than rhizo growth.
True. Someone should post some basic pics of MS cakes, bulks, etc. All I have are show-off pics...

 Here's a couple pics of WBS growth from an agar wedge, the PE are either monoculture slants or very close to it. I didn't keep great track

Looks like genetics to me.

Rosecombs are genetic IME. How did you do your isolating? From a clone or from MS? How many transfers till you got them?

If you're only making 2-3 transfers, you are close to isolates but they won't be perfect...myself and others (including RR) have found that sectoring for cubes doesn't even show up until after the 4th or 5th transfer.
Other than that, sounds good

Tmethyl said: You're not aggrivating me at all. Those hygrometers do not read accurately once the humidity hits 85%. If your sgfc has damp per lite in it its basically going to be above 90% automatically. Throw that thing away or put it back outside its useless for Mycology.
If you want a real hygrometer go to eBay and look for an analog hygrometer.
Your mushrooms will tell you when the humidity is to low. The caps will develop cracks and sometimes make small wrinkles. Over misting can also cause caps the break.
 It's looking good how it is.

Bruising is the oxidation of phenols, not indicative of potency
