I am doing brf agar and im just pouring boiling water over the agar brf mixture, i suspect MAYBE it has something to do with not boiling for long enough and most of my brf sinks to the bottom of the cup? I dont know...
I'll have to try with boiling for longer or just using grain water and see if that solves the problem
Maybe, I don't have enough knowledge & experience to go for a good result. But in my current situation it seems like there is a relation to humidity/water on top of my agar. I have some plates without the condensation-problem and even without water laying on top of my agar - The good plates without this kind of problem look like they usually should, the other ones with high humidity have the "problem" - And they are all made out of the same "charge" of Agar. Maybe just coincidence, idk.

dude, your a machinist too? i went to trade school for that and almost got my journeyman papers. did some nims cridentials and dropped out.

ya i got all that garbage too lol nutn can replace experience. i been doin it for 26 yrs now and i only took the classes cuz it was free and our local community college teachers came to my work and gave the classes on site. which was cool. but if ur a machinist and ur that close u should c if the place u work for will pay for u to finish. that way u have it and if u ever go somewhere else itl get ua another few bucks. or help u get ur foot in a place.
at least til the laws change and then u can quit like i would and grow and sell mush lol

I can’t wait for the floodgates to open wide so I can grow and sell. I have a feeling I will be so far behind the competition though, unless I can really start working on finding killer genetics. It’s so hard given my current circumstances. I wish I could find local shroomerites to get on the “in” crowd

Finally got my flowhood from Myers! 
However......... 
  
The prefilter and hepa filter both have damage due to fuckass Fedex near me. Terrible location that all my packages always seem to go through..
My excitement and disdain are equal.
Question is, will it still work correctly? I contacted Mr. Myers about it waiting for his reply but would like to know if that damage to the hepa in particular will mess up my ability for clean air flow?
He forgot to send my replacement filters on my pallet of 2 3x4 units and got them out right away. It’s often on the receiver to take up a shipping claim with the carrier when it’s FedEx / UPS

I made my first few batches of agar plates a couple of days ago. 10g agar agar powder, 10g lme, 500ml water. PC'd for 30+ mins at 15psi.
When I tilt the plates now some have a bit of liquid in, is this likely condensation? I did pour a bit hot and wrapped them before letting them cool or is it likely something wrong with the recipe? Or is it ok? I presume it's not ok and nothing will grow on them
Should I keep them upside down after inoculating?
My delivery of 200 more plates arrived today so I have lots to practice with.
Oh also, after I shake the mixture well after adding the boiling water it is really bubbly/frothy at the top is this ok? I shook it after it came out also as there was sediment around the top so it was frothy when I poured.

Some liquid is fine I think if it stays in the sealed plate then it is sterile and should be reabsorbed by the agar eventually, unless your entire surface is sitting in a pool of water.
Almost all of my plates have lingering condensation for a week or two.
Edit: I didn't realize you already posted this on the AGAR ENVY! thread and got a similar response.

I had an experience that lead me to this question that i cannot find the answer to.
Do all mushrooms produce spores with the same potential spores or do good genetic mushrooms produce better spores than bad genetic mushroom.

If the spores come from a mushroom with a good lineage, then sure you're chances of getting good genetics from those spores are greater. That's not to say you can't get bad genetics from them or that you can't get awesome genetics from spores of a mushroom with a not so bright lineage.

alright thanks man. That's what experience has been showing me, but i couldn't tell if i was just getting lucky or they actually had a higher probability of producing good genetics.

Sorry I was really stoned and rushing around this morning.
It looks like you didn't ask this there, but someone did answer the question lol

bigfootscreepyuncl said: Also, while I have your attention: I have about 10 plates that weren't inoculated (no growth on them, thankfully) but quite a few of them the condensation has puddled/pooled on the agar around the edge. Are these still good to use or should I pour some more?
Condensation is a thing that happens to most people, some go through quite a lot to get rid of it but it wont affect the sterility of your plates. As long as you don't see third party orbiters appearing around your myc or bacteria speckled around on the plate - use it. No contam? go for it. I've used plates that had puddles of water with great success. Another note is that I see rhizo growth from a mushroom on your plate, though you would be better able to determine this because you know where you spread spore on that plate, if germination matches up with spore placement its a pretty good giveaway that its mushroom and not mold.
TLDR; they should be ok

After reading about "gnats" and fruit flies **here** on the shroomery, they have now infected at least 3 tubs
Thanks alot didn't have em before I read about them here and now I think they are real
Obv connection!
As real as most complaints
Placed out a vinegar trap Wish me luck

Im doing the switch from micropore (3-4 layers) in my lids to polyfil, I havent had any contamination issues so far but it just feels too innapropiate and risky.
Im struggling to understand how tight should the polyfil be, and how the heck to get it on the lid without it loosing its tightness.
I watched bods tek and his "as tight as fuck" description but my poly keeps loosing its tightness when I push it through the hole

Lol I know a guy who always says not to tell him about diseases or ailments because once you know about it that’s when you get it.

I guess that’s the dark side of “the secret”.
