Thanks guys, I had considered doing some swabs up to spread around but I might do up some mini centrifuge tubes and spread a few slants around, this culture is a beast finally getting on top of life again, time to get my projects back on track one more transfer and my purple mystics should be good to go. My APE CRS cross is ready for its first transfer and my AA+ CRS cross are already showing some excellent growth from their first transfers. Hericium coralloides are having some strong growth from their first transfers, the myc looks so weird I definitely will get some pics up of them soon.MS PE grain masters are showing recovery off the wedges and I spotted my first pin in my ms treasure coast tub today

I just spawned a tub of "Cedar Creek". It is a wild spore print from Australia. I'll let you fine fellows know how it does. Hopefully I can make some spore prints for y'all. I know what local poo will do.

transferred ksss to third plate last night for this thread, also transferred creeper to second plate.
call me a pussy but I'm a bit nervous to use ksss for this grow along. maybe i should switch to the creeper unless ksss is just same old same old. i have read it can be difficult, no?
now thinking about it, yea I'm a pussy

got pins on Tues night. Hopefully I'll be harvesting this weekend some time (probably wishful thinking).
Also I'm probably 2 or 3 days away from making my first transfers from MS, with my KSSS, PB, and EQ.
Made my 2nd transfer of Aussie last night. Already recovered and spreading.

Lol I ran outta gloves by the time I got all my spores (only wore gloves for the original aussie plate) and no contams except for the gym! Which I attributed to the print since everything else has been good.

Yeah, most people say they're not necessary, but I still like them for the extra sense of security. Haha.

I've gone sans glove before and done fine but I just upgraded my SAB with some tyvek sleeves and bought a box of 100 gloves. I'm glad to hear that everyones creeper swabs are doing well
Use that KSSS for this log so you can send me a print or swab lol. Either way I look forward to seeing your grow too though.

I'm loving your q-tip method. Especially since I feel like it could be used indefinitely and be passed on to another person after it gets to agar.

I got some big thick rubber yellow kitchen gloves that I use. I just spray bleach on them and scrub them and then rinse them off before every use. Never had an issue. I figure this way I don't have to keep buying disposable gloves

I tried those, but they were too thick and cumbersome to hold a scalpel or plunge a single drop out of a syringe. If they work for you that's great, but I've never loved them.

Yea I got a black lab/border collie that's always up my ass for attention lol. Also its not by choice im not wearing gloves I'm just broke till Friday and the past 2 weeks since my last check is when I got all the spores. I wasn't gonna just sit and do nothing haha. So I bit my nails down as far as I could get, washed up with soap, then before each plate was opened alil alcohol from fingers to elbow.

i was using yellow dish gloves for a while (always worked well for me), but when they ripped i didn't buy more. i just take of box of food service gloves from my job, and have polypropylene (sp?) sleeves from vendor. thought they were tyvek when i ordered them, guess not.
just for u bodhi, KSSS for the log! i was gonna send u one anyway (plus a PR print, they finally growing!), but this way i'll get some help along the way!
