How many times can one grain to grain transfer?
    #19085388 - 11/04/13 01:22 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

pretty straight forward question. yes i did use the search function. And obviously i mean starting from one master jar, to 10 others, to theoretically 100, and so on. is there a point the myc will die out?

It really depends, and I'm not sure you'll find a straight forward answer on this one.

It's based on several factors, and the "dying out" you're referring to is known as senescence to help your search effort.

Check it out:

And from that last link, here is what a Trusted Cultivator had to say on the subject:

Which causes you to want to go back to your orig. master cultures...





Really, you're dependent on how many genetics the original culture starts with. Some genetics will already be older than others in the same culture and therefore different mycelium "substrains" will be dying at different rates.

To think someone could try to put a number on when your culture will die is rather foolish. The best answer is what Total said, IMO.

Youll start to notice a decline in performance after about 4 to 6 transfers and youll know it's done
