whole oats = not very white myc?
    #21790072 - 06/10/15 07:57 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

It's my first time using whole oats.  These jars doesn't look very strong.  They're nearly colonized but they just don't look very dense/white.
prep: no soak. simmered for a while and opened a few grains to test.  kept simmering until the inside looked hydrated enough. 15 psi, 90 mins.  inoculated with clean agar slices.

thoughts?

these pics are several days after a shake.  there is one last part that is uncolonized. i wanted to include that so you can see what it looked like before it was colonized.  the condensation only showed up recently.  i'm guessing its just heat that the myc is giving off.

It does look a bit thin. Some if that stringy myc looks suspect as well. Bacteria would be my guess.

I don't know, it looks pretty similar to my oats that look clean to me.

Yours do not look stressed. Meh maybe its bad light but I been using oats for over 2 years now. I might spawn jars that looked like the OPs but I would never g2g them.

From my personal experience, anything animal feed grade should be pc'd at 15psi for atleast 2 hours.
Anything grocery store bought such as rice or popcorn, you can get away with that 90 minute pc time.

thanks everyone.  i'll up the pc cycle to 120+ min next time.  i'll give these a few days to see if they strengthen up a bit, then spawn and see what happens.

I may be thin but the color looks okay.
I've had some that looked similar and turned out okay.

IMO oats sometimes look a little different because they still have the husk/hull on them.

I've also had some with thick mycelium.

A lot can also depend on the aggressiveness of the strain.

UPDATE:

This spawn ended up fruiting ok.  It smelled pretty sour when I opened the jars.

Yes I know they needed FAE but I wasn't around to give them any love.  It's MS by the way.

What needed fae? Those fruits look fine. As for the oats it needs gas exchange not fae. Glad to see it worked out. Bacteria seems fine when spawning generally. What substrate did you use?

Maybe you can see it better in this pic.  Quite a few of the fruits had some fuzzy feet.  Take a look and let me know what do you think?

Substrate was CVG with a bit of cow poo mixed in.

This was a day before the harvest:

Can you tell by the picture of oats that it needs GE?  I didn't know that was possible.  (or am I just misunderstanding you?)


Here's a pic of my lids.  Some of the holes are larger than others.  I thought it didn't need much GE at all and that just a tiny hole was good enough.  No??

Well there's no such thing as too much fae! :smile: but those are barely fuzzy though, lots of times it'll be fuzzy no matter how much fae you do. Genetics and indoors. Nothing you can do. They don't have long stretching stems either. I think it looks ace brotha. Nice work.

I was confused what needed fae to you. The oats were fine lol.

:thumbup: thanks. maybe it's the grow room that it's in.  I had to keep the door to that room closed this week and perhaps it wasn't breathing enough fresh air?  I think the air was just circulating in that bedroom for a while and became stale.

and :lol: ok cool i thought i was trippin
