Okay so the "Let's Grow Mushrooms!" video on agar made things a lot more understandable as far as setting up the agar and getting it into the petri dishes goes....but I'm still not sure how you inoculate your spores into the agar?

Ok but he's asking how to inoculate. Not how to do agar. Easy agar is a great tek tho.

YES! This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much. That answered almost everything for me really quickly.

The last question I have, in the "Let's Grow Mushrooms" video the guy said after he took the time to run around and get his agar mixture stuff (bar of agar-agar, potato flakes, honey, etc.) he found that it was easier and about the same price to just buy a powder that was already made? or something along those lines... Can anyone happen to link me to such a powder or does everyone here just make it from the bar of agar-agar?

You can get this agar agar powder from ebay or an asian food market/ health food store. Never used the bar of agar before. Got a pack of 3 for like 6 bucks + free shipping. It should last me a while.

inoculation is simple whether you poured your plates or use no pour pasty plates.

There is a section in letsgrowmushrooms on how to inoculate agar from spore print, maybe you it idnt watch?

Its simple. In your still air box open your print. Flame sterilize a wire loop and cool it in your blank agar plate, then swipe a small circle on your print, then swipe your plate. Easy peasy.

Innoculating from a spore syringe then flame sterilize syringe and drop onto a sterile swab or loop and swipe plate. Alternatively you can drip directly onto your blank plate but it slides around and makes a mess of germination

Would you still need to mix in the potato flakes and honey?

You have to buy them. 8 bux but worth every penny. Just google lets grow mushrooms and buy the downloads



Yes you would have to mix in nutrients with the agar agar. I use telephone brand myself.

For PDA I use 10g flakes 10g agar couple drops honey or Karo syrup and 500ml water.

I prefer MEA, I buy malt extract from brewers store. Cooks up clearer for me. Same proportions except you don't add any honey.

Highly recommend grainwater agar.  That's just the boil water left from your grain prep.  Strain your shit over another pot and save it.  It's enough to make enough agar plates for months.

All you do is use 1/8th tsp agar powder and 25ml of grainwater per plate instead of all that karo potato bla bla.  If the grainwater is really rich, you may want to dilute it, since it can promote slower tometose growth.

I think violet, munchauzen, and probably hamloaf have teks on that.  You can use it in minirounds or whatever PP5 container you can find.  I use hummus containers from the dollarstore that are 5 for $1.

By the way, incase you haven't read or understood, there are two ways to do agar:

No-pour means you pour an appropriate amount of agar powder + nutrients + water mix into individual containers, pressure cook them, then they congeal when they cool down to room temperature.

Pour agar means you make a large mix of agar powder and nutrient water in a bottle which is then PC'd and removed while hot.  While still hot, this still liquid mix is poured into sterile petris or some other sterile container in a SAB or LFH , where is then congeals.

No-pour is better if you don't have your sterile technique down.  Pour is better if you want to produce a shitton of plates without a shitton of PC runs or pricier containers.  That said, the petris cannot be resterilized.  If you use space efficient nopour containers, you can jam a lot in the PC.  With my dollarstore containers, I can fit ~20 in my 23qt PC, and they're reusable.  Reusable containers for pour agar will need to be sterilized anyway, so why not put the agar in while you do it and save the hastle of pouring.


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...
