I'm still feeling like a noob compared to most of the TCs and a good few of the non-TCs, but it's liberating being able to do things however you want.  Past the basics, it's easy to customize the hobby to your strengths.

anyone can bake cookies from a recipe
How many people actually understand the reasons for the recipe though?
at a certain point in this hobby, everyone's thoughts on which recipe to use become shit.

If I inoculate something and leave that agar for 2 1/2 weeks I'll have a pin on that agar if I didn't use super high nutes/dump a shit ton in, etc. Take that sterile pin, drop it on another agar plate, wait for that to grow out and then LI.

Pinning isn't genetic so much as us getting thirsty is not genetic, it's just all over time. Even the slowest, weakest culture will pin if left on agar for a long enough time.

I bet some of the best cultures didn't come from a pin on agar. Pins on agar are better then MS though.

So there may be superior cultures out there started with MS, but the greater likelihood is with pins from agar? This KSSS cube I'm working with is a pin from a pin in vitro from a MS syringe. Maybe it's just lucky. We are pretty happy with this, since it's a first-time experience. Chasing the genes.

PS: I get thirsty from smokin'.

But when you look back, do you not experience pleasure at how far you've come?

If I had a culture and it pinned on the plate I'd fruit both plates and see the difference. Then clone a cluster.

I look back at youthful, fun-loving, naive, I'm-gonna-make-LCs-from-spores Tagyo and I go "How little you know young one... How little you know."

It's also pretty nice to rebound from my mistakes. Doesn't take long to get smarter, but it requires the effort. Those of us who find this a passion are lucky.

And truly, it's amazing at how many people caught fire when Pasty made a plate.

Is there anyone out there not convinced? Petris make me feel like a mad scientist, but Pasty Plates make me feel the counter-culture of my youth.

:hippie:

Well then.....  Cant beat spore to fruit in like 2 1/2 weeks.




I don't really know how that can even happen, except I have to change the way I think about mushrooms. They aren't like plants which have a growing cycle from seed to fruit. Maturity in cubes doesn't seem to work like animals or plants. They may not even store energy, but fruit when they are under siege, and fruit when they are most happy.

However, I'm betting on it being genetic to pinning. Hell, we might not even know what a mushroom is intending when it pins. I'm listening, but what are they saying?




then whats this?  :confused2: (being facetious)


from Stamets book,

they soo have a life cycle.  :stoner:

Ah, about agar pins, I just noticed that the pasty plates with SFDs don't like to pin as much as the ones that use micropore or poly, or a mix of both.  Probably nearly enough air exchange to count as FAE.

Tyvek suit filters work great for agar pins also.

I've been using the same tyvek suit since I started. Now I have SFDs and I'm probably going to donate it to some noob.

I've ran jars and pasty's with both tyvek suit filters and sfd's and have to say that the price and convenience of buying the suits far out weighs having the same performance, higher price and less convenience when buying sfd's from the internet.

For jars I lean toward the SFDs, for pasty plates I could see tyvek being good.

I probably PC something every other day. I cut my sfds to quarter size so I get about 10-12 jars per circle. For me the fee starts to make sense when I'm not cutting tyvek suits anymore and just stickin' foil on top and throwin it in.

I am about to give up on agar.....i don't understand how to get rid of said "mold" the fluffy white shit. I've done many transfers now and to no avail. Now I seem to be getting trich in half of the plates I do and the other half just suck. I use a SAB...I wipe down my plates with iso. I flame my scalpel after each transfer. I have my plates upside down. I always transfer from the best looking outside edge....I just don't get what I am doing wrong.
