yeeha. so instead of putting the non-pinning brick into the shotty, i put culture four in there, it flourished, and i harvested this morning, weighed 354g. dried. weighed in right at 28.40g. solid ounce. feelin pretty good. final test is psychotherapy session tomorrow. i'll update with fotos later on.
edit: [later on]
   36, 24, and 12 hours ago, roughly. whatever. makes me wonder how it would have turned out if i'd have lidded it as planned. and it just occured to me, i never printed anything. guess i'll grab some from the other tub.
cultures one (non pinning) and three were capped with inverted tubs. checked em, three is just about ready to pick as well. culture one is fuckin pathetic with just a few lonely pins here and there. i was convinced at the outset that it was gonna rock... learning is fun.
so, opinions wanted: first, after harvest, it's advised to dunk the brick, is that right? if so, how long?
last, between cultures three and four, their fruiting behaviors are pretty comparable. supposing the subjective experiences are pretty comparable, would people bother putting up both cultures in their collections, or just one or the other? they're both strains isolated (i think complete isolations) from pins from the same syringe. Orissa India if that matters.

If I dunk my bricks it's for like 2-4 hours only. As for the cultures do what you have time for

ok, first ever failed printing attempt. guess i picked the caps too soon? just saying.
sooooo, how's everybody doin? good i hope.
spawned oysters, no idea what's about to happen. had an idea for next time, i'm eager to try. also, pasteurization is a pain in the arse. don't know if i already mentioned this, but there's a how-to online for making a foam jacket for a large pot. the context was for mashing for homebrew, but i thought it would also work for holding pasteurization. basically just a large stockpot, say 10 gallons, inside a giant plastic tub, with the space filled with expanding foam insulation. bring everything in the pot to temp, kill the heat, drop the pot in the jacket and cover with towels. temp loss claimed to be less than 1*C per hour.

I like to take spore prints after I see some spores on the caps just to be safe.
Most people didn't do so hot their first spore print or pasteurization it's cool you'll get better.
I just wrap my home brew pot with an old jacket and then blankets it will stay at mash temps for 90m easily starting at 154 it's usually 150 by the end of that time with 10 gal of liquid.
2 of those 6 pp5 cups are doing well casing layer applied lid very very loose I'll put into fruiting soon and see what happens.

ill admit i kinda stopped trying to isolate from spore with my KSSS. i still have one plate going from spore (i think its the 14th plate and still not a monoculture), with 3 wedges, but i was doing 3 plates with 3 wedges each transfer. was not happening, and i didn't want to keep wasting plates. then i got this on dog food agar after just 3 weeks!

that and another pasty plate with DFA was pinning. i cloned them both, and am waiting to see what happens on agar. looks pretty normal for a KSSS, which i like for yield potential, but i also kinda like how KSSS just does what it wants (fruiting wise) when u start from spore or just limited genetics. pasty had a sweet KSSS mono that was just regular looking cube fruits if i remember correctly. i only grew them twice, and my third time is not doing so well.
JJ, post ur oyster pics here or another thread when they fruit, i'd love to see them. i fell behind on my oysters cause i hate cutting straw, and when i did them on pellets, it was way slower and less clusters. so i kinda just stopped doing them. now that i have a GH, I'm starting them again.

Spawned some KSSS to actually pasteurized CVG
Put the TMF and OI tubs into fruiting with a very light CVG casing.
Have some PR PE and PanCyans in the works too.
And I got my scalpel back out of that grain jar.

libs are cool because you can look at a culture under the scope and see if it's a fruiter

from inksi
Psilocybe semilanceata has been proven to have an anamorph stage, under the microscope you will see coiled hyphae which eventually produce conidia (asexual spores) which are capable of germinating and producing viable cultures, a very interesting occurrence and one which I have observed in an undescribed Psilocybe species which I have discovered, I will likely post micrographs in The Lodge shortly.

Everyone seems to be doing something interesting today! As for me, I'm pc'ing some wbs and some wood pellets supplemented with chicken manure for my gyms!

I just bought it in a bag from my local hydroponics store and used it from there. It's a fairly fine powder, which sucks because it gets into the air and you'll be blowing chicken shit out of your nose if you're not careful . I honestly couldn't tell you if it helps or not. I'd have to do a side by side test with it to tell. I sometimes mix it in with my birdseed or my hardwood pellets if I'm gonna pc it. Just a tablespoons worth or so per jar is plenty, it can turn to mud if you use too much. So in conclusion, I do like it and I would recommend it, but I can't yet say for sure that it's worth the effort.

Hey Bod, you too! I'm so excited for them. I'm keeping a log of my process in my journal, although I haven't gotten past agar quite yet. I'll be sure to take tons of prints when I get the chance!
