Just some nice pic's of Lions Mane pin porn off of Agar, figured I'd share this beauty. found this Sample around, 05 Oct 2013 in Cheesequake State park NJ. Medium is simple MEA Agar.

Another angle of same Sample.

And yes, this is a transfer from the original dirty plate. Just made a Transfer from the 12'o'clock Pin to another agar plate.

Yeah that one was already trashed w/green mold so I didn't worry about it too much just left it in the fridge and let it overgrow 
I don't use petris anymore so no parafilm necessary, I save my small amount for my master slants. I use those little flat ball jars instead, much better since I only have a SAB.

I close my Petris with micropore tape, but they grow through it... Not much can stop a fungus on its journey for lunch fresh air.

If mycelium can grow through solid oak logs, a thin piece of parafilm isn't even going to slow it down. I usually enclose petri dishes of aggressive strains in ziplock bags for just this reason. It is interesting to watch.

Have not had a strain get that aggressive yet, (to go through the film). this one seems to have that chance, can't wait to see it happen 
I had to climb thirty feet up a tree to get this sample, Hope it pays off with a ferocious strain.

Like most of nature, it will take the path of least resistance. If the mycelium finds it easier to go under the edge of the parafilm, that's what it will do.

I always love that A. aegerita pic, I'd be happy with a pinset like that on my bags!
