    #19062271 - 10/31/13 08:53 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

sorry tried my best on the pictures shitty camera, and shitty user.


these was started on the 10/26

are they ok to shake for faster speed?

so far everything looks clean no ugly colors. my hope to make 40 g2g jars.

Looks good. It also looks like you shook some of those jars up already. Wait till at least 30% even when starting from an agar wedge before shaking.

I wouldn't shake any of them yet

Pictures look clean enough, shitty user.

Which Brings me to an observation -

Unlike me, you've got this far with seven posts - which to me
says you've done a lot of reading, and you follow advice
and directions of those who've gone down the road before you.

For that - Five Shrooms.

Another observation is that you've spent a little money
on either ez-felt or SFD ( synthetic filter discs ) for your
jars, another step even I didnt take in the beginning. Some say
its not neccesary, some say its a time/contam saver. I like it.

And you've done agar instead of asking fourty times why LC isnt
a good idea.

ya i haven't done a shake yet just happened to be where the agar landed and thanks for the positive feed back:thumbup:

just seems to be moving a little slow, but doesn't everything in this game.

ive been reading a ton b4 starting. yes you are correct sfd's followed a few teks here.
for some reason i keep thinking that i read something from RR where he said wait for 100 grains to colonize b4 shaking roughly the size of a quarter. just cant seem to find the thread in a search. anyways think ill wait as that would create more inoculation points at 30%.

just thought i also read you could have 100% colonized jars in a week with agar.

Just guessing but could you possibly be working with some sort of mexicana truffle producer?

Those look fine, but you would have been better off not to shake as directed above.

The reason is that when you cut off a wedge, you cut through the growing, leading edge of the mycelium.  It's best to let this recover without further damage, so that the mycelium crawls off the wedge and into the grains below.  It makes little difference if the wedge is upside down or right side up because it's not going to recover and grow from the middle, but from the leading edges.

Once the mycelium has crawled into a few of the grains below, shake to distribute.  Shaking early with a mycelium wedge slows things down because you only get recovery later from the wedge itself, not from all the mycelium which falls off when you shake, but doesn't recover and grow.  You must then wait for what's left on the agar wedge to recover and grow again before the mycelium can leap off, setting things back a few days.

The other advantage to not shaking right away is that you can see the agar wedge on top so that if green mold or another contaminant develops, you see it before you shake so you can discard that jar.

please forgive i was wrong

so i built a TiT incubator and noticed that the jar that was stuck in the corner had metabolites im guessing. temps did hit 84 degrees when i notice this so im guessing it is from high temps.

fixed up picture


original picture


other side of jar


the rest of jars are great working on soak for g2g for the rest

It looks like metabolites, but there's no such thing as myc piss.  Metabolites serve two functions.  One is to help break down the substrate with solvents, and the other is an antibiotic function to help fight off competitors.  Mycelium doesn't urinate, and the metabolites are not a waste product, despite what you read elsewhere.  Penicillin is produced from the metabolites of another species of fungi.  You certainly wouldn't ask your doctor for a shot of myc piss if you had the clap.

Quote:

A large amount of metabolites generally means a bit of bacteria in the jar. The metabolites are antibiotic secretions, so when they're in large amounts, it usually means something is up. High colonization temps will also lead to metabolite production, so remember to colonize jars at room temperature.

A jar with a good filter will contain any contaminants that are within, so don't toss it out. Don't use any jar with a lot of metabolites for grain to grain transfers, but if they colonize fine, they're good to use for spawning to bulk.

found this guess ill be making a shoebox bulk for now and g2g the rest

72F to 80F is fine. Some growers incorrectly 'incubate' at 86F, which causes all sorts of problems.

Quote:


You won't get metabolites pooling in the bottom of a jar before full colonization unless it's contaminated.  Excess heat will cause metabolites to build up too, but only after full colonization.
