I put some spores on agar from some prints I made from my first pf tek grow last spring. The variety was cambodian. I made 3 transfers so it's not completely isolated but probably limited to only very few sub-varieties.
I inoculated a grain jar with an agar wedge. It took over 3 weeks to fully colonize and then I g2g it to 7 jars. When those were fully colonized I stored one in the fridge and spawned a tub with the other 6
I used 1 brick of coir, 2 qts of verm, and a handful of gypsum. I pasteurized it on the stove top in gallon ziplock bags using franks tek. I spawned it in a 66 qt tub on Dec 13th
Here is some pics of its progress. It's knotting up very heavily and I'm starting to see a few pins popping up. I've never had a tub knot up this heavy. Hopefully that is a good sign
 
I'll throw up some more pics in a couple days when it is a little further along

I've grown several tubs from a few different cultures and I've never had one knot up like that. Idk if it's a good thing or not  Guess I'll find out soon. Its looking like a nice pin set. Just hope they grow huge!

Yea, those aren't knots. Those are mutant blobs. Have fun harvesting those. It's also recommended to harvest them before your "first true flush," in order to allow your mushrooms to grow properly.

Probably genetics. My old Amazonian clone would produce 2-5 mutant blobs on the first flush every time.

how does one harvest a blob i wonder?
TL, was that amazonian clone an isolate or like a fruit body clone? cause i had that happen with an amazonian BRF cake once, but it may not have been consolidated long enough, i guess similar to what cronicr had mentioned

Blobs are super easy to harvest. Normally, they aren't attached to the substrate nearly as well as a standard fruit. That being said, I still cut closest to the substrate on blobs that don't easily come off.
It was a fruit clone. & I always let my tubs consolidate long enough.

You can harvest the blobs, just be sure to not disturb the pins.

Man Fuck this. I don't need mushrooms that bad! I been stooped over that tub for 15 min and have barely knocked a dent in those stupid blobs. Hopefully the blobs won't affect the following flush too much
