yes, invitro growing was NOT rodger's intent, he was just making jars of grain to case.

Hippie, do they just seem more prominent to fruit/pin, or does colonization happen faster as well?
both.

further explanation from rodger- how it all started. Trying to develop a way to get casings to pin sooner. However, when the jars started fruiting so quickly, the experiments took on a life of their own, and now 'quart jar invitro' is an official project. If someone were seriously interested in doing invitro like this as their modus operandi, they'd be advised to get wide mouth jars, for ease of harvest. The yield from some of these jars has actually been equal to or better than the yield from casing the same amount of grain, and the harvest comes sooner, with much less work, no grow chamber, and less risk of contamination.

That is nutts!!! Haha, it appears as though the caffeine affects the mycelium much like it does humans: Feelings of anciness, jittery, and overall feeling of needing to get up and do something. In this case, it was pin like mad much earlier than expected. The poor caffeine-saturated mycelia just couldn't stand it anymore!!! hehehehe!!!

Tea has significantly less caffeine in than strong coffee though so I'm not sure what the point of using tea would be. Coffee would probably have a modicum of nutritional value.
I was skeptical caffeine could effect it but seems to me like the results speak for themselves.
Looks like I'll have to put a brew on then.
Though if they pin so much invitro so fast, I hope its not too fast.

count me in on this project! I put 1/2 cup of spent coffee grinds with water into my ~20lb bag of rabbit manure and mixed well. I think im going to put one more load and that will be it. I then took 1/2 cup of whole dry coffee beans and started to soak them in hot water. Im going to put them in the manure mix also.
I also watered down some old coffee and boiled it, allowed it to cool then boiled again 15 min later. Then i poured 1/4 cup of the still hot mixture into a 3/4 quart WBS that was overdried from over microwaving. I allowed it to cool then innoculated with some florida cube.

I am definitely testing this as well. I will make some jars using coffee beans, and some using WBS and treated with ground up caffine pills, and some regular WBS.

any experiments with controls being done? id like to see a comparison, it really puts things into perspective.

no, it was instant coffee grounds. Rye has seemed to work for my friend. What do you mean when you say it might mess up the water content?

yeah but who wants to look at shots of perfectly normal rye quarts ? lots more info will be coming in over the next several weeks. until then i just want to remind everyone that this is still very experimental, not a proved TEK yet so only risk what you can afford to lose.
