Malabar Monotub Update-Pinning/Drunk Mushy

I spawned my malabar tub today. Franks WBS tek-->Franks Grain Dunk--->D5050's coir tek. 4qts Spawn 1 brick coir 2 quart verm 5qts water.
I decided to try dunking my WBS before spawning as I like the results i am seeing for others. I was going to be using 5qts Spawn but we wont talk about the 5th jar . Tub is a 66qt latch top sterlite with 2 1.5" holes about 2" from top on each small side and 2 1.5" holes 5" from bottom spaced at even amounts on each long side. Wish me luck

Got this bad boy in a syringe that won't germinate on agar.
Anxious to see it fruited,

I too am experimenting with dunking. Grains in my case. dunk some p.e. and spawned to bulk. Colonizing now. the tub seems to be colonizing twice as fast as in the past, but we shall see How it turns out. i will have a better "control" in a few weeks when i have my isolated p.e. so things wont be as random.

In my experience I've never gotten the same results from non-dunked grains as I did with dunked. Slower colonization and less fruits.

I had seven sub strains I have been trying to get to germ on agar but only my b+ Malabar and Allen germed. My yosterizzi ksss ban nathon and eq I couldn't get to germ. Was gonna try pf tek on those to see if I could get anything then do a xfer to agar.

Shoot it on grains,
Sometimes miracles happen. Pluck a piece of colonized grain with flame sterilized tweezers and put it on agar.
The shift from nutritious grains to shitty agar normally leads to rhizomorphic growth, making it very easy to see fast moving sectors.

Tag I may be out of miracles haha I had 5qt jars of each nocd and the only one to show anything other than the mal b and Allen was the yosterizzi. All others after a month showed 0 signs of life. I'll try again though. Was really looking forward to the ksss

KSSS is my favorite. It's normally extremely aggressive as well. If the grains don't work my hat is all out of tricks,
If you're putting them on agar try doing more then one splash. Do like three or four, seperate them around the petri and see if you see germination. I've only had one variety that was straight bacteria and another that didn't like to germinate and the bacteria one the grain jar worked and the one that didn't germinate I just pretty much went blindfury on a petri and dropped like fifteen drops, got germination and transferred away immediately.

I'll def have to try again. My ksss got 5 drops by accident so I thought maybe that combined w condensation pooling made the surface to wet on my plates. I have all my plates posted in my agar thread my plates for isolating Maybe ill go ham with some more lol. I took ur advice about cracking the plate b4 inoculating to dump excess moisture. Hopefully I can get em to germ.

Update on my mali tub. these pics are around 40 hours after i spawned. Temps are a steady 78 with humidity sitting around 95%. I would say things are going half way decent. Wasn't gonna run a casing layer unless somebody thinks it would help but from all i have read they really don't benefit cubes all that much so i think ill skip that. Anyways thats all for now.

Maybe I'm seeing it wrong, but did you poke holes in your tape (on lower holes) and if so, why?
During colonization, you only want GE (gas exchange), not FAE (fresh air exchange).

Let the man experiment,
I find casing helps me in my dry climate A LOT with FAE. If he made a bulk sub he can use that to case and fruit immediately. Ez-Pz.
