You can do both, and waste your time and money, or you can learn from other people wasting their time and money. I prefer to let other people waste time while I do things right nowadays. I feel like I've already wasted enough on half-assed methods that aren't well thought out or come from someone who just doesn't understand things very well. :shrug:

I still experiment once in a while myself, but I do it within the confines of rationality that follows reading a LOT about these things.

If you really have to see the results of your experiment, you can look them up for free. Lots of people have tried it.

I'm sorry, but I disagree with you.

To each his own.

I didn't believe in California until I went there.I've been there now, now I know it's real. That being said, I've been growing for a long time. I have tried 95% of the methods on this site. I always learn something that I couldn't get from reading. If you have a link to the methods I outline in this thread, I am interested. Growing iso's in spawn bags compared to FC's, I'd love that link. Also, I don't think you have read my post carefully enough in this thread. This tek is NOT for harvesting mushrooms, it's for easily identifying prolific iso's.

You can learn and learn until you're a "pro" and then push new boundaries and learn new things, but you may be jaded and have some views developed. You can experiment right away but your experiments are going to be low quality, but you'll still learn from failure, at least you can come here and make sure you are not trying something that is already a complete fail but if you're still trying new things then so what. As long as you're not driving like shit on the roads I don't care how you drive your projects. :shrug: If you're getting something out of it then awesome.

That doesn't mean we don't want to keep this place noob friendly. Sometimes I know I come off as a dick but that's so the lurkers and people who search up these posts can see an opinion of someone who went from noob to what I would call pretty damn good success in like 6 months. Sure I'm no expert but I can at least lay a guide for the people who are starting out where I was 6 months ago.

If that's how you think, you're gonna have a hard life.

You can only identify an iso that's prolific IN THE ENVIRONMENT YOU GIVE THEM. Plain and simple. If you fruit in bags, you'll get some results but they won't tell you which one is the best iso in good conditions.

Why do you think commercial edible farms don't all use the same isolate? It's because they choose the best one for their environment.

Bottom line is you're adding a variable to your experiment, so you can never get proper results.

No offense, but I think that is complete and total bullshit.

some super aggressive cubensis genetics that I isolate can grow in anything, and I can spot that aggressiveness in poor conditions and in good ones.

It's not wise to speak in definitive s

Innovation and experimentation is never a waste my friend, It's and investment. :wink:

I agree, but this is nowhere near innovation, and the experimentation has already been done.

I expect lower returns on your investment than you should get with good methods, and I do mean in the long term.

He doesn't get it, that the best way to do things was an experiment as well. Inception. :lol:

Bodhisatta,

Why do what I've already done before. I know those methods work from experience. I'm trying to move forward (not do things that myself and others have done thousands of times before) Tell me what the definition of insanity is?

Like I said, if anyone has any real hands on experience of the tek outlined in this forum, or even a working link, hook a brother up, and stop telling me things I learned 10 years ago!

Yes but people have found out their isolates have performed not as well in the intended place as they did in a test environment.

It's in mycology books, Maybe google books or amazon has previews in them. Paul Stamments(sp) etc..

I use brf cakes to test isolates.  What leads you to think if you're going to grow on horse manure later that you need to test your isolates on horse manure? You can find the best isolates on brf cakes and then grow them on horse manure later for larger yields.  You'll hear all sorts of stories about how you need to test on the substrate you'll use later, and there might be some truth to that with the harder to grow edibles, but cubes will grow on anything, so it's not applicable.

The fastest method of testing isolates is to make brf cakes without the verm layer, using a tyvek filter instead.  Place a wedge of each strain in each brf cake.  Don't waste time making LC(ever) or going to grains if the species you're testing will grow on cakes.

if you search testing isolates and click the tc button, all that comes up is cake testing and probably for a good reason

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn

I have all Pauls books, and read them all thoroughly, I know him personally as well. He actually taught me cultivation and phenotype isolation on his farm in Olypimpia. He never mentioned to me or in his books the question I ask. That's ok though, I believe I know the answer anyways. I was just looking for some objective, constructive input.

Thanks Cron,

That is helpful (the wedge in the cake)

So with these bags would I only have to poke holes when they are closer to being fully colonized? I just mixed grain spawn with straw and did these bags today and am not sure about putting holes in them because of the filter patch. If holes are needed, how many? thanks any info helps very new to this
