New to the LC, Flat has to bed, right? It happened after being on the stir plate for a long time. When stirred, it looks beautiful.

I just paid a little under $95 CAD for 4L of isopropyl alcohol, 99%
I can't find it anywhere, and see some assholes charging $30+ for a 500mL bottle on Ebay, and it looks like it's gonna be sold out for the foreseeable future.
So by my math it works out to a bit over 5.5L once made into 70% [4L*(0.99/0.70)] = 5.65 L
Anyways, it's a bit under $20 a litre, which is pretty shitty but if anyone else in Canada is in search of isopropyl and willing to buy 4L quantity there is link below
They only have 6 left apparently, sold 7 in the last 24 hours..fuckin nuts,
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/324129870725
Nevermind there is 4 left now
holy fuck

What about denatured alcohol? How good is that. I use it to flame scalpel with torch. I use it other ways too. I can dilute it right?

Yeah that's a bad sign. I just threw an GW LC down the toillet like that, cos my impatient ass can't wait to have an obvious clean culture with a PE clone I have. So don't rush it kids, get a fucking nice clean culture and then expand the shit out of it via LC. The smell coming from the LC I just dumped was horrible. Mind you clean LC's don't smell pretty either but bacterial LC's smell disgusting.
If you're gonna make GW LC with sediment that's pretty much the clue that tells you something's fucky, myc settling I mean. Also, there's a good reason I don't like to add anything to agitate the LC when I make GW with sediment. I want to leave the colony alone doing its thing the first few days. If it's healthy, there should be several puffy balls of myc at the bottom that can grow pretty big with time. If the LC is contaminated, these balls of myc won't grow big, but rather they'll start slowly spreading throughout the bottom and you can tell the myc is weak. When the puffs look healthy I start swirling the jars daily and the myc will try to colonize the whole LC very actively. It's tough to explain I hope you get what I mean.
Again, LME LC's are very noob friendly in that respect, it is very easy to tell when one is contaminated with bacteria. So if you are not sure you can tell when a GW LC is contaminated I'd rather go the LME route.

Gettin some growth from my GT half of the SGFC. The B+ half is maybe pinning 1 to every 10 the GT cakes seem to be producing, all the conditions were the same.
The B+ even colonized a little faster (everything was from MS).
The big boy was an invitro pin, not sure how long the base can support it. Got a little banged up birthing the cake.
Ps do these cakes look over-misted?

I started making capsules last fall and I was wondering if adding a minimum amount of vitamin C would be good or bad ??? Or would any supplement be a good addition with the cubensis...
Thanks

You should try growing lions mane and adding powdered lions mane to the capsules I heard cubensis and lionsmane make a great combo.

Has anybody ever left a plate so long it pinned, dropped spores, and they germinated??
I’m going through some plates I haven’t looked at in over a month and keep waiting to see that.
I also found one that seems to have spontaneously grown mold. I’m almost positive it hasn’t been opened in months and was clean when I put it away, but now it’s got a tiny spot of green going.
I guess it’s more likely I cracked it open to pull a big shroom off it and don’t remember.

Just pulled off the first harvest!
I've read a lot, still not 100% sure about when to harvest but this go around I'd like to make sure to get em before the spores drop.
For this reason I harvested anything with a separated veil and flattening cap even if they were small. With the exception being the one monster mush I plan on printing and cloning

My dehydrator is a week out from being delivered. I've got a small amount of desiccant but that doesn't seem sufficient. What's my best option to get me through to the weekend?
I was thinking maybe just follow a tea tek and store it in the freezer for later use...

I use a desk lamp to dry my shrooms on top some tin foil. Works pretty well in my experience.
Great pics! Nailed it!

Damn! Knew I shouldn't have swapped everything out for LEDS... this might take a while 
And thank you! 
With that in mind I think I am going to make the tea following Primalsoups tea tek.
Is my math right if I figure that 64g fresh weight --> 10 oz finished tea (going to make lemon ginger and add a bit of lemon juice) should equate to about a little less than a gram dry weight per 1.5oz shot?
So basically I'm hoping to make a tea that roughly equates to a dry gram per shot for super easy dose estimation

Another idea is using an electric space heater that has a fan.
I use a lot of old skool bulbs cause I like the color. If you have a bulb left, it works pretty well.
U could also try cook some on a hot pan till they become dry.
