I like it because you can use it for bags but you could also use a master jar I guess.

I do love G2G that shit is magic. No other way to put it.

Tweeq are you opening the lids and then using the syringe to inoculate instead of pouring?

I just open the lid in the sab, keep it over the jar, squirt the poked agar in with the other hand and close up again in one smooth movement (theoretically).

I don't use SHIPs and consider them as much a vector as opening the lid. But I'm all new at this and an experimenter by nature so please don't take this as an advice.

That’s what I figured but when you said you shake it before pulling lc into the syringe I got thrown off

Yes. Lid lifting for inoc and shaking after growth when ready for syringe. Sorry if I was unclear.

I’m just an idiot :rofl: I assumed you poured the lc when it was ready. But I guess you use a syringe to inoculate your grain or whatever it is your inoculating.

Looks like I got some Pseudomonas? Should I assume it is in my agar dishes as well? Got some clones I was going to work with anyway, so hopefully those haven't been touched by creepy uncle tam tam. Looks like it's time to be far more picky about what I put to grain, as well as to stop dumping entire petris in my grain jars, etc, until I get better at doing cleaner work and identifying not so obvious contams.

If you're doing enough good agar work to make LC then LC starts to loose its attractiveness as its an extra step and more workload plus the risk and the fact you should test it first. Who cares if a jar takes a little longer to colonize if you have a pipeline operation anyway you'll always be busy and fruiting anyway. Besides g2g is as fast anyway.



I got bit in the ass with an LC from a poke, I didn't test and lost a months worth of grains. Never done it since, like you say if you've got shit rolling theres no need.

honestly i'd pretty well decided against fuckin with lc, but then the chit chat in the pans/copes thread made me reconsider. eye dee que, inoculating bags of sterilized substrate then just crumbling into a tray and casing has a certain appeal to me. i deffo don't have a rolling operation going. strictly small potatoes over here.

Mines smol af, like the most I've ever had going is about 20 quarts and probably about 10 atm but the APE is rolling and then whatever else I'm fucking about with exotics etc.

Coming to the end of my first grow. On the 4th flush of my monotub and most of the pins look like aborts now (black heads and that sorta thing). 10 half pint BRF cakes to coir. All told, got about 3.5 dry ounces from it. Have agar to grain now, so hopefully in another couple weeks I’ll have some more actives going. Tried spore to grain which didn’t pan out, but hopeful about the agar work.

This is similar to how I'm rolling. I consider my grow compact and efficient, not smol :tongue2: This is the least amount of work I've had going since about this time last year, but mostly because I had to almost start over after my move:

  • 10 muda bottles for Gourmet
  • 5 Shoeboxes (sort of, spawning them Sat, just cleared the space for them)
  • 18 jars (6qt 12pt) of grains colonizing
  • 25 agar plates getting monitored.
  • 2 LC jars for shits and giggles


When I'm up and running I'll likely have about 16 muda bottles going, 12 shoeboxes, and around 30-ish jars. I don't run as deep as others, but I almost always am at full opertion and cycling which work I'm doing. I'm mostly limited by space, which is why I have to focus so hard on getting my contam rates down to almost nothing. I have little room for error.

So... negative side effect of getting a propane torch is that my x-acto knife gets fucking hot. Do people have anything they use to insulate the metal where their hands are or any other tricks?

I like LC a lot but it might be because of the luxury of having a flow hood. I didn't really use it much until I got a flowhood and had so many failures from trying to inoculate LC in a SAB.

The last like 3 months I've been growing I've used LC for about 75% of my jars. I don't mind agar though and prefer it, you defintiely don't notice even an extra week or somethng for colonization times when you got a ton of jars on the go... LC can make a sliver of agar go pretttty far though and that's 1 thing I like about it. Plus it is easier to prep than pouring a ton of agar plates.


I wouldn't even recommend LC to noobs though...definitely something for people that have experience using agar and great sterile technique or a flowhood or both
