Agar and tomentose mycelium
    #22205789 - 09/08/15 05:40 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hello again,
So I'm hoping what I have is tomentose mycelium on agar.
Just wondering, at what point should I transfer? I heard that tomentos may not be dikaryotic so I'm thinking that taking it off the plate where there are other spores may not be a good idea.
Should I wait to see if I start to see rhizomorphic growth?
Thanks

Rhizo and tomentose mean nothing on a dish.
Rhizo is something nice to look for but some of the best cultures grow tomentose.
Another thing is it largely has to do with the agar recipe, the % nutrition, and environmental conditions.

It's nearly impossible to have mycelium that isn't dikaryotic on your dish. You have to go through great hassle to get monokaryotic growth, trust me everything you have is dikaryotic.

Worrying about rhizomorphic growth is a no1 noob mistake. Worry about clean healthy growth, not the morphology on agar. It's meaningless until you fruit it and find out what you have

As soon as you have enough growth to transfer, make the transfer. Especially on the first dish from spores, you want to transfer asap.

On dishes 2,3... You can wait longer before transfers but on the spore plate you want to get growth onto a new dish
