I’ve always wondered why they don’t ALL turn into mushrooms? Seems like there’s always more knots then actually fruits.

That's what they do though. Some are only called to be knots.

Im just restarting growing again. Knocked up some rye jars with clone myc I grew on agar. Getting slow growth, in particular in middle jar. Time is now 3 weeks after inocculation. no shake yet.

Thinking this could be due to grains too dry (RR method, soaked 6hrs) or possible contam in the middle jar (different clone than other 2 jars). Curious about opinions of better trained eyes 
I dont think that -not perfect on the dry side grains slows culture down that much and IMHO I think those grains look ok. What might not be ok is that they have a contamination of some kind. Im getting full colonisation on any grains 7-21 days max. If its any longer and its standard cubes im worrying. Shake them and see what happens. The fussy bits around the edges look like they might go moldy. Im interested to see the outcome, please post.
Update:
Shook the jars 1 week ago now. Mixed up dates in my previous post, so now they are 3 weeks after inoculation. Shaken at 2 week mark. How do these look? Looks slow to me compared to what i've been seeing here.





Currently experimenting with more grain jars with different soak/cook times and also some no soak/straight to PC. Also here growth seems slow.
Myc originated from different clones of the same growkit. Agar looks clean.

Personally I would have let it grown out a bit more before shake but that’s just me you would have probably had a quicker recovery time. Also there’s not much growth after a week so that could insinuate that it’s battling something. What are your ambient temps like and what is it you’re growing there?
These are my pesa 3 days after shake

Its cubes clones, incubating in dark mostly in boiler room 20-25C. Plates looked clean. Thought maybe the grains are on the dry side.

Yeah three weeks the jar should be done. Although maybe like you said it’s dry grains, I had a dry batch recently and it definitely slows things down.
Inthepit- my gt plates for lagm looked a lot like that at first but definitely cleaned up by t4. Although I did put it on plates with a recipe I get good rhizo from.

Dry grains will definitely get you. I've got 3 Master jars going with dry oats, the worst grain to be dry IMO. I've made jars since that have passed them and will be ready soon. I've been getting pretty good rhizo off of 1% agar and 1% nutes here lately. Thinking about upping the agar to 1.5 - 2.0 for a harder plate.

For first and second transfers from spores. When you know that you'll be transferring again being putting on grains/LC. Sometimes you pick bad stuff from the germ plate on accident, so its good to have many T1's to look at.

Thankyou and that recipie would be...drum roll...
My Rx is: 4g agar, 7g potato, 50% Oat broth, food color, for 500mL
 Oh, and I microwaved agar from the fridge and the potato looked crappy. Not expecting mush out of this batch. However I used c10's method of pouring a little agar and swirling the plate to cover. Kinda cool...

lol I use like 6glme and 7-8g agar to 450ml.
Then I pour plates on the thin side. I’ve been doing all kinds of recipes to see what happens and that’s been my go to, although I did just have a super fluffy aa+ culture go nice flat rhizo on t4 with thicker plates mixed like 5g lme to 10 agar.
Aa+ and gt were by far the fluffiest for me starting from spores. Just a big thick mess almost up to the lid until t3.

First one is def not cube Myc. Second one just looks like MS culture but also could be something else.

So I bought that little induction heater linked in Pic of the day couple days ago I got a 12V 2A power supply wired and it heats the knife up great..but only the 1st inch or so. If i pass the whole length of the tool in the coil it (power indicator) flashes which I assume means shorting out.
Can this be resolved with a higher amp supply?
I dont know much about electricity
Bought this power supply should be in tmr.
I haven't soldered the coil the board, hoping the short usage will keep it from melting the connectors
$40 (+ $12 I wasted on the 1st power supply), for an induction sterilizer
excited to get it all buttoned up and hope its functional

Personally I would trash them. Any plates I ever had turn out that way was early on and I didn’t even bother with them because I had many better plates. So it’s hard for me to 100 percent say it’s not cube myc but it don’t look right to say the least! Just my 2 cents. Shit if ya got the time and energy grow it out throw it to grain and see what happens for experiment purposes. I’m sure it could help people down the line to see where it goes. If it makes you feel any better they were both plates from GT that did this, so maybe something to do with GT genetics
