everyone says the caps are super potent but IDK these chode shrooms always get me.
I'll have to look unless someone else want's to research this too but do the actives get made in the secondary mycelium(mycelium network creating the fruit bodies) and transferred into the fruits or does the tertiary mycelium(fruit body's cells) make the actives, and if so is it true the caps have more actives by weight?

Yeah, I'd bet the whole cap potency thing is just a myth. Stems make up most of the weight, so if you can get big stems in an isolate it's definitely a keeper!

"creeper" is always hyped for it's tall broad shrooms. Just goes to show a cube is a cube and I've found creepers of all sorts of different looks before. I wonder if these are going to be strong, I'll report back with findings .

Haha. Awesome, I hope the spores you sent out grow up into something like that!

They'll probably look nicer. I'm expecting to see quite a range of different looking fruits across the 6 isolates I'll test out in this thread.
Small update, Reishi is kicking ass the sawdust is about 40-50% colonized now. I think the pan tropics have germinated on the grains and it looks good the pan FL and pan RDU haven't done anything or have contamed but I made new dishes of all three pan varieties anyway.

Wow, that will be really cool! And I'm glad you're liking the reishi so much. I just made 4 spawn bags full of wood that I'm gonna spawn with reishi soon, so that should be really cool.

Spoiler alert I think I'll do quarter pint PF cakes for the 6 isolate I end up with in this grow so everyone can we can see them perform against each other in real time

Here's the 6 dishes they haven't moved much yet but they're kicking.
Now the other two pictures concern me all 6 dishes have growth that looks like that, the clearish growth that's on the leading edge. Is this a "hidden" contam riding along with my mycelium??!?? I really hope it's just the cold temperatures or the fact that I've never looked that closely.

I've noticed that too on my plates. Usually it seems to be growing outwards from the point of inoculation, and seems to be competing against the whiter stuff. I just chalked it up to being other genetics, but I could be wrong.
I stay away from it when doing transfers because I fear that it is indeed contamination. But I don't think it is, it's been a more than a week and it hasn't changed color, just got overriden or changed into mycelium. 
I hope someone else will be able to clear this up.

No, that is how all cube cultures I've seen grow out 
This is a "hidden" contam pic, though it's pretty obvious here:

 awesome, well I guess I never really noticed it too much, then again these styrine dishes are way nicer than my glass ones to use and look through.

Gonna agree. I'm willing to bet that odd, only-visible-in-the-glare stuff is mycellium one cell thick. If only my microscope existed.

Did the transfer you made from right above the contam come out clean?

I'm assuming it will be contaminated, however there's no way of knowing for sure if it's going to be less than in summer... It won't grow in those conditions, but they probably lay dormant until their environment is ideal.
EDIT: Done and done, I'll keep y'all posted when I have results! 
Results are in after 11 days. Outside plate is filthy, I see pink mold white mold, and orange mold. It was roughly -20C outside.
Inside plate is immaculate...
I'm very surprised, I even let the inside plate sit for a bit longer (20 seconds). Air inside was not still, fan was on.
My fan inside is a HEPA filter.
Results indicate that molds don't give a shit about the weather, they're just waiting to hitch a ride on something they can grow on.
