So, through the sponsor I picked up some lc syrg. a while back.

I've had some amazing results of this MS - I'll post my favorite picture.

Have you had any crazy luck with MS that you couldent believe? Crazy mutants?

*MS is Multi-Spore inoculation, no isolating or anything.
Heres my favorite :smile:

I actually think I had better luck with MS then I am having trying to isolate and clone and transfer blah blah blah.



Those are two decent pictures, but I remember getting a couple wall to wall tubs from MS inoculations. A lot more mutants too.

i don't know if its luck if it fruits like this everytime.



this is some real multispore luck.

prints from 2003 revived and grown out. that is some pure luck or coincidence? ive revived some prints from 2000 and 2001 recently that im going to attempt to fruit.







here is the original grow from 2003. the substrate was contaminted. prints were taken. they were clean as a whistle. colonized plates as fast as fresh spores. 5 days full plate colonization!

Look at any picture I have posted.  It's all my MS "luck"

Or most any picture in here and the grow logs section, before this whole epidemic about spore syringes not being clean.

I am waiting on materials, then I will be doing another grow with all the recent "no nos" I have come across since I have been gone for a year.

MS
Open air inoc
TiT incubator

Amongst many other things.  I will also be documenting many TEK's that I either never had time for, or forgot to do so.

Agar was used for isolating, which is a very advanced technique.  Now a days I am seeing people recommending this to newbies, even doing simple BRF.

K.I.S.S.  These things grow themselves.  I have done my share of agar, cloning, isolating.  But every grow I have ever logged, or taken pictures of, was a straight MS grow, or MS > Grain > Grain LC.

People have used MS inoc for YEARRRRRRRRS.

Is agar a better solution?  Yes
G2G?  Yes

Required?  Hell no.

People want to recommend the *best* methods, but are still recommending a SAB over a flow hood.  PF tek over bulk.  Ect..

Sorry for possibly hijacking your thread, but this is non sense.  People need to stop recommending the best way possible, when there are thousands and thousands of alternatives.

I personally would never recommend a sab over a flow hood....just a lot easier for a broke bastard to use a sab...I still want a flow hood so I can persue cultivating edibles...from what I hear trying to inoculate bags in a sab is a big no no..but I can still use some spawn plugs for now I guess

Well said CITRIC!

spore syringes have been demonized. although i see people who ridicule them but sell them to unknowing newbies on stupid social media. shame on them.

its like 20 years worth of multispore syringes didn't happen without contamination. lol.

i still have syringes from 2007 sitting in the fridge that fruit and are clean as a whistle.

I am not saying anyone is recommending a SAB over a flow hood.  I am stating I am hearing recommendations of using the *best* methods, yet I still hear SAB being recommended.

If the whole purpose of agar is to test a syringe or print, then test it on a half pint or pint of grain.  If all is well, G2G from there.

Don't start on agar to test, then wedge to a grain jar, then G2G.  You are simply adding an extra, unnecessary, time consuming step.  Inoc the grain jar, wait, then G2G.

I have been gone for over a year, so I don't know where all of this came from, and to be quite honest, so suddenly.

Feel free to look at most all of the moderators grows, most of the TEKs people follow, almost all of the grow logs.  90% of them are MS grows.  This is non sense and I plan to debunk all of this here shortly.

It's fkn crazy and ridiculous.  Agar is not for testing a syringe!  Sure, you can!  But you can also test it a thousand different ways.  Agars main purpose was for isolation.  Which none of these new growers need to ever read about, let alone experience.

Cubes grow themselves!  The hardest part here is to not sneeze as you inoculate your jars!

Want to test a syringe?  Get a few half pints, put a scoop or two of grain, and inoculate it.  From there, if all is well, you can then make a grain LC and inoculate all of your jars, which will speed colonization time ten fold.  Rather then inoculate agar, wedge to grain, then G2G.

Never in a million years did I really think I'd come back to this, let alone being suggested to new growers.

New growers were always suggested to buy a syringe from a local, TRUSTED vendor, and grow some BRF.

The thought of recommending a new grower to do bulk was absurd.  Yet now we want them to jump right into agar.  .... non sense

I like that citric, MS has been good to me, haven't had one contamination episode once from a syringe. Only done a handful of grows but still, it seems as if it's an unacceptable method for growing some good mushrooms. Which I don't fully understand, other than getting *clean cultures and what not. It would be nice to clone a certain mushroom, but MS works for me.

This whole idea of spore syringes being un clean demoralizes our fucking sponsors.  I seriously want to ban anyone even mentioning it.

Hey, your spore syringe is dirty because you made it?  Try harder.

Your spore syringe from a vendor is dirty?  Contact that sponsor, they stand by their product and will back it.

I have had ONE, I say it again ONE spore syringe bad, over 15+ years.

That's like telling someone I've been going to my favorite little corner store restaurant as a kid, getting quality chicken alfredo for my dollars worth.  Then after 15 years I get sick ONCE.  I sure as shit ain't going to start going to Olive Garden every time I want some noddles and chicken.  Shit happens.

I will say, In my tale of 13 cakes thread, that syringe is one I made in an SAB and i only had 2 jars go south. 11 out of 13 is pretty good imo.

Not to mention the amount of times I swipe spores  I rarely see contams anyway.
People have been putting spores to grains successfully for decades...sure you might spot a contams or two just inoculate against the glass ..watch for molds and g2g the healthy ones:shrug:

I just want to know why, and when, this whole thing started.  Also, by who.  Because they along with anyone else who suggest this, is beyond wrong.  Our sponsors are very viable.  I will reach out to every sponsor that sells a ms syringe, get one from each, and have a very successful grow with each.  Using ms injection.

I read Mckenna's book and he recommends agar. I started with agar and have to say Im pretty happy. I just like knowing my inoculate is clean.

Agar isn't an advanced technique at all. Pretty simple actually. I guess it's not a requirement but who wants to be
spending money on syringes all the time or making them for that matter? Put one drop on agar and away you go to a
as many grows as you want:shrug:

I guess I see your point though

What would you recommend doing differently? I know the last pf tek grow I did was 100% no contamns. so its more like a ratio of 27/30 which is 90% success with an MS syringe. (considering I made the last one as well) brf and verm are cheap so losing a jar here and there isnt a big deal. :shrug:

Sponsors pay to be here for a reason.  Not to be pretty much told half of their product line up is contaminated.  Which, is totally untrue.

One drop on agar, then to grain, then to G2G.. when you can put that initial first drop on grain, and do the same G2G?

I see your point though..

Hey, if you want to waste time testing the validity of syringes or spores on agar.. then goto grain... then G2G or GLC.. go for it.  Me.. I'd rather throw it on a small grain jar and make grain LC and harvest in under a month.

I used 3 ms syringes on my cakes(1st grow) and since then I've just had prints to work with... Didn't have any problems with ms syringes...just haven't bought or made any ms syringes since I started out cultivating...I was told agar was the way to go if I was going to keep with the hobby, and now I don't mind doing the agar work...even if it takes a week or two longer...

This may be blasphemy to say now but I inoculate pf jars open air without sterilizing the tip lol. And I have very little contamination. I was chased around for 3 years by "the best growers on this forum" for that statement. Most of these people talk about growing mushrooms but dont actually grow mushrooms.(you know who you are)

Been doing it that way since 1996 with little contamination. Comparatively, I get the same contam rates with ms syringes that I do with agar. Its really close to 0.  Same thing with grow bags. If someone wants to use them so be it. Dont insult them bc their situation doesn't allow for making their own bulk bags. It helps newbs get a feel for the process.

I have a treasure chest of old vendor syringes from 2009 and older that still germinate and give me clean growth. No contams. Is agar easy? Yes. Do I like it yes. Is ms easy, yes. Do I like it, yes.

Point being is that there are too many fun ways to grow. Narrowing down peoples methods only keeps them stuck in the box. I mean people hardly grow off anything other than coir and verm now. Dung straw is a fun bulk substrate. And there are too many cool substrate recipes to do the same thing over and over. Mix it up, learn something new. Dont limit yourself.

Its like blasphemy to say anything other than CVG. Then you have forum police raiding your thread and insulting you.

This is not the shroomery I once new. :facepalm:

Sorry for the newb question, but what media are you colonizing in? 1 looks like popcorn after that i'm lost.. getting ready to do my first jars and was just gonna WBS. Any reason you are using those instead?

Thanks..

P.S. i think this hobby is a fucking addiction.. i made 12 new plates the other night then the next day was like why the fuck did i even make those? i don't need them for a week or so.. then innoc'd 6 more :smile: Agar is so friggin easy it's insane..

Interesting discussion.

I've been growing via MS syringes since the 90s, never doing any other method of innoc. I just did my first G2G last week.

Up until that, every jar I ever inoculated was MS in open air, often without doing steps like sterilizing the needle in between jars. About 20 years of doing this with both standard BRF cakes and WBS jars of 1 pint and quart sizes. I experienced very little contamination - I rarely lost any jars to contams and really only saw contams appearing after several flushes when the cakes and/or tubs became very weakened.

I came to the conclusion that a lot of standard practices were recommended to newbies in order to combat poor understanding of how to work properly, because I worked in old, moldy apartments and houses, in open air without ever having issues with contams from MS.

I also made a lot of my own syringes via taking my own prints, diluting one syringe into 20, etc.

I also made all my syringes and made all my prints in open air.

I worked for many years without updating my methods as everything worked just fine for me. I came back recently when starting up a new batch and read on updated methods. A lot of this reading was great as certain ideas had been thrown out and simplified, but also saw all of this new talk about how bad MS is, etc. I had prepared and inoculated quite a lot of WBS jars and only had a handful colonize, so I was feeling pretty down as this had never happened to me before, and I was particularly susceptible to all the negative talk about MS despite decades of experience telling me otherwise. Looking back, I think the spore solution was ridiculously diluted (already diluted 2x from original syringe) as well as being very old.

Anyway, G2G was great and I can't believe I didn't start doing that earlier... so much more efficient than starting from spore.... but you all have me rethinking the need to give up MS.

No need to give up ms...even though I use agar my grows have been ms, unless you isolate on agar it's still ms ...although I just took a clone to test at a later date...may take a couple more as well... I just lost one of my tubs after a massive first flush...best flush I've got so far...

WBS is easy (and cheap if you source the best priced bag - I get a big ass bag from Walmart for under $10). A lot of the teks over complicate it. You don't have to pick out any of the seeds, people just prefer to for different reasons. Sunflower seeds are black and some people don't like to see anything black in their jars so there is no confusion over possible contams. There are people who don't even bother cleaning their WBS, they just use it as it comes in the bag.

I have a couple jars in the PC right now which consist entirely of all the crap people clean out of their WBS - sunflower seeds, floaters, moths, maggots, sticks, etc. I am going to colonize it and use it for fruiting, and I'll throw up some pics to show how it goes. I'm sure someone has already done this.

I guess I should have clarified I meant MS syringes. I kind of agree with Citric regarding skipping the agar and just injecting MS onto a grain jar, and working from there. Agar seems like its just adding extra supplies, work and storage into the mix, although I understand its validity and why people love it. I don't know, will have to think on it... may just go ahead and try agar anyway to do something new.

But inoculating a grain jar and then doing a bunch of g2g seems like a pretty simple and efficient way of working.

If you decide to do WBS, I'd recommend following SpitballJedi's WBS prep guide here:
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20048754#20048754

No need to cook/simmer WBS at all. Just let it soak, drain for about 15 min, and then load it into you jars. This is what I do and it works great.

I agree with everything said about syringes.  I grew about a decade ago and now am back.  This time I'm spending way more time researching and taking my time wanting to learn this science:) so I ordered about $250 bucks worth of lab supplies 200 perti dishes, agar and tools and am trying to learn it all.  It is by no means easy for a brand new noob to jump into agar just pouring plates was a bitch with the temps and condensation, not impossible but not an hour reading and your off.

  So I knocked up a dozen jars all are doing great, and while I'm waiting I'm pouring plates and there turning out ok no contams so far and a week in and 3/4 are colonizing pretty well.  I figured doing it this way would give me something to do while waiting on jars to colonize, That way by the time my multi spore grow is done I'll have some agar Experience under my belt to clone some fruits. 

  Also in the past I just used ms to wild bird seed and then cased with straight verm and they turned out awesome.
  So the only time I had problems with syringes was when I fucked up sterile technique definitely not the syringes themselves.

  So all in all I have probably 15 grows under my belt so by no means an expert But I have a lot more experience than someone brand new and I probably spent 100 plus hours researching over the last month to buy all the right supplies and know how to use agar There's literally hundreds of different teks on this site for agar and I probably read every one of them to increase my chances for success.  This is definitely not something I would recommend to someone who has never grown a single mushroom.  They need to learn to bang out a couple cakes and casings first.  I think anything more would be overload and more likely to fuck things up.  A true noob needs to focus on sterile technique and preparing/sterilizing spawn.  Before they even think about agar.

Honestly I'm not very sanitary at all and I still get almost no contams. If you are getting contams all the time you are almost purposely being negligent.

I've been having some shit luck with agar. Pouring was no problem (other than condensation but that's my fault for trying to rush things), unused plates are still clean, but I've been having serious mold problems from the start (syringe maybe, but I'm not ruling human error out entirely especially since my jars are fine so far)

I think I might have something clean at this point from ms but my clones go super bacterial before any myc comes along (might need to cut back on the malt extract a bit next time). I'll get it eventually I'm sure, but I would've been better off sticking with ms until I was confident in my work.

Anyway, here's my ms luck.



I had a nasty run in with trich and bacteria during colonization, from a compromised verm barrier, that wiped out most of my jars. I was so pissed by the time I got to that half cake that I said fuck it and just cut him in half and I'm glad I did, just put them back in the fc for 2nd flush.

Complete noob here.  I am so confused now.  I started reading and learning about growing mushroom here a few weeks ago, and after reading hundreds of threads and many TEKs, I am convinced that starting with agar and SAB is the way to go even I am a noob who never grow before.

Sorry if this is off topic.  Please let me know if I should move this somewhere else.

My plan is Agar -> Isolate and clean -> A2G -> G2G -> Spawning to bulk in monotub

I am following Bod's Unmodified Tub TEKs

I am using MS syringe from one of the sponsor

Two days ago I started my first agar

So I am thinking I should go get some WBS today and then follow No Cook WBS TEK from SpitballJedi, and experiment with MS -> WBS

I already build my SAB and I plan to use my MS syringe and open lid instead of SHIP.

I will appreciate some experienced cultivators here to validate my plan. Please let me know if I am missing something.

Thanks!

that sounds like a solid plan. grain prep is critical. i can not stress the importance.
soaking wbs for 24hrs and doing a basic draining/drying produces never fail grains for me.

i even did my own write up:oldman:

I would skip isolating for now, just get clean growth on your agar. Isolates require testing to make sure you have genetics that will produce fruits, you don't want to go through all the trouble of making a monoculture just to find out it doesn't give you shit.

I'm still a noob so I can't give you real solid advice in that regard, but you should definitely start a grow log.

A word of advice, be careful about asking off topic questions. There's a lot of people on the shroomery that will jump your ass for being even slightly off topic with no remorse. Luckily mushboy isn't one of them (at least from what I've seen) and is pretty damn helpful.

Thanks guys. For some reason I seem to have good luck with cakes.

LOL I have something like 47 Pint sized cakes in various stages of colonization right now.

At the time of this pic there was 39 on this shelf, I have added 8 more to it. Many of these are knocked up with an old LC. Some from spore.

Nice sized fruits there, Cybin_man!

I happen to be doing a run of Costa Rican myself right now:

No fruits or pins yet...

The mostly colonized tub did not get a top layer of coir and was put into fruiting conditions at spawn. The 2nd tub did get a top layer of coir and had FAE restricted. Both are 2 quarts spawn + 1/2 brick coir






Shoebox



These jars are G2G'd from MS syringe sourced WBS jars (syringe created in open air, inoc of jars done in open air, G2G in SAB). The yellowish spots are corn kernels, not metabolites or bacterial spots.

First two mini monos ended up being not quite so lucky... achieved a decent pin set and flush on both, but I think the genetics resulted in all really small fruits. Both tubs were basically identical.. was disappointed so I didn't even photograph tub 1. But both came out like this:


Woulda been more of a full canopy but I had harvested some of the early growing fruits prior to this.

So glad I g2g'd so many more jars from this same batch of Costa Rican :lol:

Hopefully the Chitwan and Burma shoeboxes turn up some nicer fruits.

Those tiny shrooms are a pain in the ass to harvest.

Just for the sake of follow-up- dry weight for the 1st flush came out to exactly 3 oz. So not too bad despite being all tiny shrooms... sampled with just 200mg and felt it for sure so potency is good :awesomenod:

Interesting... that pretty much looks like what I had from the side. Wonder if its common with CR

Using several varieties I've had packed away for a while and have never grown before. This will be my first grow of the Chitwan and Burma as well.

Here is MS LGT pint size cake that I cased and fruited in jar. I did this with about 27 jars. This was the 1st to fruit and gave me either 84 or 86g wet. I have harvested a few other jars since this one a couple days ago and have been getting lots of big shrooms, a couple up around 8 inches.

so far I haven't even tried fruiting any clones (soon will be with PE) as I have been very satisfied with these somewhatconsistant ms results.(Luck)

Your results are amazing, open air unmodified is looking quite optimal, and it's so easy just pc coir, let it cool and mix with spawn, cover a few days than take the lid off. You said you yielded 1.3 Oz roughly per 1 Q tub ms? I don't think I've seen a more successful ms grow, or really shoebox grow at all in a little while. Outstanding.

Hey thanks! I posted some more specific information on this grow over at the shoebox thread

Yeah, dry weight on each box came out about the same around 1.3 oz. The shoeboxes actually produced better than the mini monos. Both of my mini-monos yielded 1.5oz dry (first flush), but I used 2 quarts spawn on each of those where I used only 1 quart spawn on the shoeboxes.

Surprisingly uniform results with size of fruits, pinset, and yield. Initially I was not happy with the small size of the mushrooms but now I am wishing I had taken some clones. Potency is very nice as well. I did take some tissue samples to agar from a larger fruit in my mini-mono, which is also from the same initial batch of Costa Rican. And I also still have a grain jar in the fridge and some more spawn jars ready which are sourced to the same grain transfers as these boxes... so may still have a shot at saving these genetics.

Oops sorry if there was any confusion.
All my grows were cleaned on agar first.
All I was trying to say is you don't need a clone to have great results.

:whathesaid:
yeah I think the thread is about ms vs clone/isolating/narrowing gentics not spores to grain vs cleaning spores on agar first.

Ahh I see now, sorry my mistake :lol:

Was just saying that I don't think agar is a must, though a good skill to learn. It definitely has it's place in cleaning, cloning, isolating, etc...

Just mentioning this as I read a hella lot on this forums about guys coming down hard on noobs claiming that you can't to MS to grain and agar is the only way to do it or you'll fail.  :nono:

All my grows are MS to grain bags with 90+% success and only improving as I continue to learn. Everyone will find their own niche in this hobby :heart:

I totally agree but sure love my agar at the same time.

I love your grows and glad you are happy with your method and results.

And glad to see someone stand up and show proof how well it can work.

Your rock in it!:rockon: thanx for sharing

Ms all day.

Timmy I completely agree with you
there is more than one way to skin a cat and thats why I like to leave options open to people asking for advice.
yes there are more reliable methods, but if you know how to operate with what you're working with you can definitely be successful with less popular methods.

I really like to push agar on people just because its very intimidating to a noob but relatively easy to get into, but this hobby i'snt black and white. If you insist on doing spores to grain there is a proper way to go about it and everyone deserves to have a full understanding of how to get the best chances of success with any method they choose.

Ive seen you inoculate grains with a black syringe full of spores with a canopy to show for it. theres no doubt that spores to grain can work. but you have to be smart with how you use your spores

I apologize in agvance cause im drunk as all hell but i feel like this is the major flaw with the teachings of the shrroomery. everyhone wants to make it black and white but dont give a full understanding on why and how other methods work

Hell yeah

I've only just started my first attempts with agar, but even using agar instead of spore to grain, I think I'm still leaning towards MS.

For some reason I just really like the idea of using spores and the fact that each grow has a element of chaos involved.

While I understand the benefit of isolating and cloning, it just seems boring to me compared to working with spores :justdontknow:

It's still a MS grow if you're just cleaning up your spores with agar.

Here's another grow of Treasure Coasts
