What's the best method from going from dried spores to agar?

This may not be the 'best' but it sure as hell is the easiest for me.

:thumbup: I didn't think so.

About the dried spores, if your asking what I'm thinking, I am having the same dilemma, I have a dried out oyster mushroom, and I am going to take and swab it to see if I can't get any spores, then I'm going to take it and rehydrate it in distilled water, and see if I can't get some of the culture to spring back:shrug: I hope that helps?

The only reason why I give a fuck about the oyster, was it was my first ever grow, and I let it die off, so I'm hoping I can save it

Flame sterilize, make a hole with the hot needle then inject one drop into the hole without flaming the needle again. I find leaving my plates at room temp clears away the condensation better than putting them in the fridge. I just dump any excess water from my plate on the floor of my SAB before inoculating. Yes they can be kept in the fridge to halt growth.




Thanks Muda. I thought Pasty's Tek said to store them in the fridge? I'll take a few of them out right now to inoculate in the morning.

Also this may be a silly question, but how do I store them once I've inoculated them? Out in the open?

Just somewhere out of your way, as long as your house is not superhot, or super cold.

I put all of mine in a closet. Until you get growth, and take what you need, then you can restore them back in fridge, it stalls the growth

I store mine in a glass replile tank next to my SAB untill they colonise then I put them in Ziploc bags and put them in one of my fridges crisper drawers. A sterilized qtip will work fine for a swab but I prefer to make an inoculating loop out of  wire frome twist ties or a guitar string.

Maybe because ear swabs are like $2 for 500 and he's already got foil and the PC around, as opposed to buying them online and paying for shipping for such a minuscule purchase.  Use what you got I reckon.

Ok, cool. What do I need covering them after I inoculate and set out in my closet?

Just the lids, and the mp tape, or whatever you used to cover the hole, this stuff is not half as hard as it seems, I know this sounds strange, but this is how I started, with poured plates thought, I had all the wrong equipment, and I ended up seeing damn near EVERY contam. You can get. With this setup, you will rarely catch a contam. Unless your sterile procedure is off.

I was afraid to make the jump to grain, LOL.

Sweet. So just take off the foil and paper towel, inoculate, and toss that shit in my closet somewhere. Neato. I'll do that later tonight and post pictures when it starts growing.

There's tons of random mushrooms growing in my neighborhood field. Maybe I'll take a spore print and practice inoculating with those shits.
