Because most people do compare MS grows it seems - that's why I said what I said. No worries, always interested in varieties... :thumbup:

This is a very long thread and though I've read it all I can't say I remember it all. :lol:

And no I've never grown Brazils.  But then I've never grown a lot of strains, even though I've grown quite a few. :raisemyglass:

Ive got some mexi cubes coming up soon. Excited, absolutely love the color these things put up. Sometimes orange, yellow w spotted caps. Fun cubes.

Aa albino and PE too but I'm most stoked about these. Amyone else love them?




Here's a few old cakes of mexi cube. I have 3 monotubs of these I hope they come up orange!

Yea dude my tubs have all been Golden teacher or B+ lately haha. They're fine mushrooms, ive grown some B+ that blew penis envy off the chart on potency before.

But they're kinda run of the mill ordinary. Thats why I'm growing PE, mexi cube, albino right now haha.

Speaking of gnarly, what about Malabar Coast?  SW's pic is weird, asked for that as a freebie once but didn't get them.  Anybody grown these with those strange looking caps?

Will antibiotic agar help prevent bacterial contaminations when germinating spores?  The damn AA+ and Redboy from syringe both went bacterial over night.  The KSSS from print germinated and looks fine.  I did 2 more plates of the AA and Redboy, and even did a plate of the Dancing Tiger, that round also went bacterial.  The first round I thought went bacterial because I went a little heavy handed on the syringe by accident, figured the excess water caused it, but even when I managed to get a single drop out they went bacterial basically overnight.  I can see what appears to be spores germinating under the yellow bacterial muck.  Any chance I could put them straight to grain and then pull out a single grain after it turns white and try to clean it up that way?

Hell yeah it will.  My first transfer to AB agar from regular cleaned up my clone.

As long as it's not bad enough to ride on the mycelium then it should work fine.  Otherwise, agar sandwich tek.

You could also try the grain thing, that's the only way I could get my APE spores to germinate.

I've considered the sandwhich tek, but the bacteria literally blooms and spreads faster than the spores can germinate.  I don't know how good that would work with the sandwhich tek.  By the time I run through that many plates trying I'd probably be cheaper off buying the AB mix to add to my agar with leftover AB plates on stash.  I'll probably try to noc some small 1/2 pints grain jars next.  Even if they end up bacterial in spots, at least I have a shot at getting a myc colonized grain.  I've been able to clean up dowels/grains with bacterial with transffering and other techniques, but not from spores.  The bacteria is just to damn fast from a spore syringe.

I've had success transferring grain to agar when the syringe I used was too contaminated to clean up on agar. I just shot some spores into a grain jar and even though there was a lot of bacteria at the inoculation site I found enough clean mycelium to go to a plate with it.

Good shit.  I figure the prime spot for grain contam would be the bottom of the jar or near the inoculation site.  One of the ways I was able to clean up badly contaminated grains/dowels was to take a sterile swab and swab some prescription grade AB ointment on the surface of a plate before putting the dowel or transfer on it.  It slowed down the bacteria enough to make a transfer or 2 to clean it up.  I tried that with the syringes, but no such luck.

Malabar is meant to drop few spores, so its not surprising you got none as a freebie, it'd be similar to asking for PE or an exotic.

I am surprised malabar does not come up more in the old "a cube is a cube , oh... except for all these, oh and this, and this, oh nearly forgot this and this":grin:

I got a malabar print form a free spore ring or a trade but it never took off. I saw the main benefit  to be the distinct retained veil, which could allow for cleaner spore syringes, inject through the intact veil and such out clean spores out of its own naturally occurring SAB.

What an awesome journal, I think I stumbled on to that once way back but never followed it all the way through.  Those things turned out all right.  Didn't take many transfers from the grain jar to get clean.  Hopefully that works with these.  I've also got a malabar syringe from SW from 8/12 just hanging out, those things are fucking crazy looking.  Maybe I'll try those next.

I've been doing that...it has an advantage IMHO that you've already selected for myc that colonizes grain well.  But bacteria is a bitch.

It never hurts to ask. :shrug:  May have to go after it then.

+1, I was just playing devils advocate and saying the reason it is a bit different, and unlikely to be a freebie, but if they had some excess it might have been 50/50 if you got it, so well worth asking, esp. if buying a lot. I did not read that it dropped few spores until recently.

Looking at different vendors descriptions of malabar I would certainly stick with SW if looking for the definitive spores.

Yeah, I had no idea it was hard to get spores from.  It's got my curiosity still.  They sent me PF Classic instead.
