im just still trying to wrap my head around not needing to use foil, something just doesn't feel right about it,gives me the sense that something is missing. why were people using foil in the first place? and at what point did it become unnecessary? i do like the less waste factor, i mean im throwing out balls of tin foil lmao

Aluminium foil is recycled here, supposedly. So I have been relieving my guilty conscience by making sure to recycle it instead.
Truth be told it probably ends up in a landfill anyways. Guess I will give it a shot with no foil but I definitely will be concerned and paranoid for the first runs

I'm actually slightly for using foil on grain jars or media bottles. Reason being is that when you take them out of the PC, the foil acts like a mini SAB around the lid. If you need to pull the jars out and let them sit for any length of time (anything longer than it takes the jars to cool), this can help cut down on potential contams before putting them in your actual SAB/FH. I realize that's why we iso the lids before inoculating, but the foil still helps in the situation.
Having said that, i don't ever use foil

I mostly dont use foil. Every once in awhile I throw some foil on a couple jars. It's not necessary for polyfil. I can't speak on micropore I dont use it. Just a reminder guys if your polyfil isn't the hydrophobic kind you have the wrong kind. There are different types and you need the hydrophobic kind. I believe I'f you go with the polyfil brand polyfil you are good to go. Otherwise I'm not sure how to tell when buying. I read that some say on the bag they are siliconized. This would make it hydrophobic but I haven't actually took the time to read the bags to see if they really say that. Also c10 good to see you man.

Iβve used the same reused foil on my pasty plates for just about a year. I had to replace a few from wear and tear but there are still a number left.

I just PC'd some swabs and forgot to put foil on top. Suppose that was the first of not using foil anymore....

I think he was talking about the meaculpa guy. I thought the same at first and had to double take.

Oh yeah, I took that as meaning meaculpa, not caps. Meaculpa is news to me, but not all that surprising. Caps would be a huge shock and somewhat unbelievable.
Just to clarify, my comment about him spouting BS was about Meaculpa as well, not caps.

The big hitters are back, happy new year.
Anyone seen Mycolorado, He disappeared during my stones grow experiments and he seems the best active sclerotia grower around atm.....
aaayyee buddy, hope you are well, looks like you been doing some killer work with exotics lately!
do you know if anyone did anything with the genetics from that big giveaway i did a while back? really curious to see if anyone got anything cool off that AA+ Monster line (the one i got the 3500g flush and 295g fruit off of )
sucks that Mycolorado is mia, i liked that dude a lot. when were your stones grow experiments? i ended up fruiting my mexicanas instead of going for stones, and holy fuck they turned out potent. really enjoyed playing with exotics over the last few years
I missed that giveaway but would like some of those genetics next time it occurs.
I have to grow stuff that takes more skill as cubes bores the pants off me..
Its tough getting info on Stones as there arent many experts here and Mycolorado told me to spawn to bulk to get more stones from a grow and fruits. Wel, boom, he was right, I have fist sized boulders growing but no fruits. I think Im going to harvest these bad boys very son and leave the sub to do its thing after patching... https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/26156506

I stopped using tinfoil when I got my hood. Would just unload and let them dry in flow. Now I just unload them and let em dry in the SAB and haven't had a problem yet. Fiol gets expensive quick.

Any particular reason?
Also I am guessing Meaculpala or whatever his name is was banned for giving shitty advice? I did notice that the guy who made over 1k posts in like 2 months had been mysteriously absent

Does bacteria grow directly with the cube myc? I have seen plates that are obviously contaminated with bacteria, but in those pics it takes over half the plate and looks slimy.
Some of my plates get this almost invisible ring of myc just ahead of my cultures, which I took to be just the leading edge, but could this be bacterial riding along? Its always symmetrical and consistent with the thicker more white growth of my cultures.
Here sort of an example of what I am talking about

Tho this plate ended up getting tossed cause it was mold lol but this is pretty much what I am talking about with the invisible/faint growth on the edge
