Agreed. Myc looks ok.
On another note I have 2 more cultures.
I think this one is ok
but this Rusty plate has something going on ive never seen before. I know this batch of agar was soft but I have a perfect ring around the culture that looks almost greasy. The 3rd and 4th a younger photos of this one.
 
The top one looks great, I would take more transfers from that for sure. The bottom looks grey not white which ime is just really weak mycelium? not 100% sure on that
Only 3rd transfer from spores

12ish days is normal for most of my cultures
This makes me think its either poor grain prep or contamination across 4 cultures that all looked clean..
12 days is pretty damn quick if using, say, 1/4 of a plate. That sounds like a super solid and well worked on culture. If my jars are too full and i cant shake it can go upwards of 20 from an MS culture, or even some of my clones, but speed isnt a trait i clone for so im rarely paying attention.
If its takeing longer than 25 days with 2 shakes, at 20 and 90%, then its probably bacterial.

I just tried an experiment. I filled a bag with 2146g millet, 1372g water***, let it sit about an hour, PC'ed it, nocced it last night, will let you know how it turns out.
***Volume calculated based on proportions of Caps' PPM recipe of 3/4 cup millet, 1/3 cup water.

They’ll turn out just fine I’m sure. Edmunter, millet is hella easy to prep for jars.
Just weigh out your amount, rinse, and fill the pot with about 2 inches of water over the millet. The white millet I use swells like a bitch.
Put on medium heat for 15 minutes
Turn to high heat for 5-10, until the bite test passes
Dry for around 5 hrs or overnight (up to twelve, I wouldn’t go longer but bod says 24 is fine)
It’s dumb easy.

anyone ever tried un-hulled rye berries? the hulled rye Ive been getting has too many cracked kernels for my liking. I imagine it being like a cross between wheat and oats for consistency..

Here are two pics of my current tub (BOD's unmodified 54 qt, just coir). I've had the lid flipped from the start, and haven't misted.
1) Am I correct that those small white balls are knots?
2) Does the surface look too wet? It isn't pooling, but it looks like it's pretty close... would any of you crack the lid?

yah! 
was hoping you'd get good response replyom, i dont have any grow experience yet but definitely dont see "too wet" in either those pics- almost dryish looking to me.
but damn, pin porn soon lol

Haha thanks. If you zoom in you can see zillions of little water droplets, most of them are literally touching each other and somehow not merging into bigger droplets/pools of water. And then the thicker, fluffy white growth is very dry, with no visible moisture -- from what I've read, I think that growth might be associated with bacterial spawn, but I'm not sure. If you look at the pics in my grow log you can see that the corners of this tub (the AA+ tub) are almost entirely that thick, matted growth. The corners are where all the FAE comes from in BOD's monotub setup, so maybe matted growth is associated with both bacterial spawn and too much FAE? I certainly don't know.

@GypsyCurse, thank you!

If you all have something like trich or another mold sporulate on a plate, do you trash that plate? Is it possible to get a clean transfer since I assume there are contaminant spores everywhere?
Here's a RW MS plate for example

That plate is probably trash, because it also looks to have a bacterial satellite. Obviously you should TRY to transfer away from it but I wouldn’t be surprised if it pops up again a few ones in later plates.

That green mold is tough to get around, that stuff gets on everything when you open that plate up. Iv tried to transfer away from it in the past but the only good time is before it turns green.

You end up using less plates if you just throw these ones away I think, that shit gets everywhere for me. I could probably move slower in the sab and keep it from going everywhere but honestly I’m waiting to do any serious agar work until I’m working with dat laminar flow. Made a bunch of spawn up to get me through the winter with minimal time in the lab, finally got a work flow down without having to be completely present for 12 hrs a day

Yeah I have about 5 more plates germinating clean atm, so I'm gonna trash that one. But it made me wonder what could really be done if for some reason the only plate one had of a clone showed sporulated contams like that plate above. Based on what you all are saying, it may not be completely trash, but it'll be a pain in the ass.
When are you planning on buying/building your flow hood?

I should be working with laminar flow by the new year hopefully. Got a couple things in the works, just gotta make sure everything in life is in order before I drop the money and time. It’ll be done though no later than February 2020.
I’m not the kind to go and spend full price on a filter and blower and wood and be assed out for groceries and rent. I’d rather take my time and get the best deal possible for quality parts and make something that is satisfying and non-generic. Just personal taste nothing against anyone who went with the standard cabinet. I most likely will too.
EDIT: anyone have anything to say about this abstract concept???:
Spawning to FAR under field capacity (one drop) coir and a bottom water after Pinset?

You could try it but who's to say that the primary is not already a calculated decision?

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn
