 Can you combine Mycelium from the same stain?

I am sure that a lot of people will think this is a retarded question, but I can't find a direct answer to this question.
I know if you mix two strains together the stronger of the two will take over the weaker. So if you combine two jars of mycelium together (of the same strain but not from the same original print) will they cohabitate or will the mycelium of the possible "stronger jar" take over the "weaker" jars mycelium.
Thanks for any answers to this probably dumb question.

perhaps a "protein" stain. dude, it is advised that you do NOT spank off on your agar or into your jars.

Yes you can... it happens almost every time someone successfully uses spores.
Competing myc may reduce fruiting... some case two jars side by side in the same mix... so they don't conflict too much.
GTG is supposed to work better.

the "stronger" strain doesnt take over the weaker strain. but a stronger/faster growing genetic make up will definitly increase the probability that it will colonize faster, therefor control a larger area of substrate. i find that mycellium from differnt cultures just coexists and interconnects/becomes one. at least this is what it looks like from my observations.

"A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

Thanks for the replies. I thought that you could mix myc. together as long as it was the same strain. I know that you can if the myc. originated from a single print, but was not sure if it would if the myc of two prints (same strain) were mixed together.
Thanks again.

You could not mix them... but they could grow side by side.

I thought that if you mixed the myc. of two seperate strains then they would "fight" each other for dominance. Thanks for helping me figure everything out everyone.
It's apreciated.
