Im trying to make some LC with a ps. ovioids print... i used maple syrup... Think this might work?? It's basically just a test run.. I'm so used to growing cubies thats y i used the maple syrup..plus I know this forum has evolved so much since back when i used to grow cubensis... Anyways I just wanted to mess around a little bit and see what you guys had to say
Thanks~ PF

Sounds like a recipe for disaster. Maple syrup isn't normally used for LC, plus your print is likely from a wild find, meaning it's probably loaded with contams.

Pour some petris, swipe some spores onto it.

No LC's from that print! i can guarantee you there are contams present
get 2-3 of these at an asian/international store

get 1lb of DME at a winery/brewery store

5g's of each (1/4tbs = 1g) in 250ml (or equivalent ratios) of water
slow simmer for 10min or until fully dissolved
load into petris/jars a few MM deep
cut some tyvek lids or holes for poly if you're using jars
PC @15psi for 35min
*if there's residual moisture rolling around on the agar wait for it to evaporate, usually after a day or two* once cooled scrape a small amount of spores onto agar in a SAB. A paper clip can easily be made into a loop for scraping.
wait for clean growth 5-10 days transfer clean myc to new agar in SAB wait for more clean growth 5-10 days transfer to grain/WBS/etc in SAB colonize transfer to wood based media colonize lay beds and pray for rain
I prefer using the ball elites with tyvek lids due to their wide base and availability, but near any sealable and PC safe container will work.
If you really want a LC do a G2LC once you have a healthy, colonized jar

Haha...guys it worked...i lysold the fuck outta the room i was using,my mason jar,and the lid and knife i used to scrape off spores.. Let me figure out how to upload pictures from my cell phone and I will show you guys but there are no contams...
One time I took a chunk of mycelium from a cube grow and threw in some dirt from outside and a little bit of grass and within 5 days I had about 7 mushrooms and one was the biggest one out of the whole grow that we had going and we had about 15 small tubs so I've been doing this for a while now for about 10 years so I think I'm decently versed( is that the right word to use in this sentence)in mycology and mushroom cult. but I know You guys know a lot more tricks than I do I just gotta keep it old school

Good to hear, i've heard claims that it's possible to inoc. BRF jars with syringes from wild ovoids, and due to their aggressive and fast growth they outpace contams.
Still.. it would be wise to get some on agar and play it safe. If you don't have a PC, i imagine steam sterilization could also work.

Thanks guys as this is my first wood loving grow

Grab the wood and soak it for a day. Drain it well after. Mix in moisturized (field capacity) vermiculite with the wood to give the mycelium something to bridge the gaps and also hold moisture. Just make sure the final result isn't too wet. PC it and shoot it up.
Once colonized, plant the cake somewhere it will enjoy and grow.

No, don't do this at all. One, it's not likely to take off well, and if it does, it's gonna take FOREVER. And when you spawn, that'll also take fucking forever because you don't have many inoculation points.
OP, either do up a bag of sawdust spawn or just go to some kind of grain. Then spawn either of those to woodchips after they colonize.

Well, I don't do liquid cultures but I DO do pf jars directly from spores for woodlovers with wood added.
Please look at my gallery under growing woodlovers and tell me this is not a viable method. And no.....it doesn't take fucking forever.

I didn't say it wouldn't work, I said there are better methods.
And yes, it does take fucking forever compared to using grain. I've tried both.
