Thanks so much for everyone's help with this... I ended up ordering this one https://www.globalindustrial.com/p/hvac/filters/airex-filters/airex-174-36-x48-x6-hepa-filter-micro-air-99-97-efficiency-metal-frame-high-quality
but I accidentally ordered the wood frame instead of metal.

Any downside to this?





Don't think so, the wooden one might slide into place easier.

I wish I had room for a hood this size!

Hey guys,

when you do G2G, what do you do with the agar piece in your master jar? Just don't care about if it gets into one of the receiving jars or do you try to tilt the jar a way the agar piece stays in the master jar?

I grain 2 grained the agar pieco into on of the receiving jars all the time but now I am worried if this is the correct way.


Regards

yeah I thought it's not a problem at all, just wanted to ask.

Since the master jar should be clean and the receiving jar should be clean, the agar wedge won't do anything to the cleanliness of the process - but better be safe than sorry! :P

I would actually want the agar in one of the jars if it didn't take too much effort to put it in.  The more the merrier.

Is a random agar plate of spores ever gonna do better than a a clone?

I don't quite understand the rhyme or reason to transferring, cloning, etc. I mean, I'm doing it, and getting results, but am not sure why.

Am I wasting my time keeping this KSSS going for over 6 months, 7,8 transfers, vs a agar KSSS pin clone?

Are the genetics the same from the 6th transfer as the 8th?

My tub in sig was spawned with 5th gen transfer KSSS spores. I just spawned a tub the other day with an 8th gen transfer plate. Gonna be "similar" results, or quite different? Am I keeping the same shit going, good or bad, or does it change with each transfer, until I isolate?

Thanks for any help.

Yes, a random collection of spores can outperform a clone. A clone by nature is not an inherently better choice, it's simply limited genetics of whatever you cloned from. For instance, I can clone a shitty fruit and I'd likely have those shitty fruits in my next tub. But with MS, there's so many strains present, the chances of having all shitty genetics is super low.

The reason for transferring and cloning is that you can guarantee specific results. In my example above, I cloned a shitty fruit. In real practice, you'd clone something like the biggest mushroom from the first big cluster in a tub of MS. That's isolating towards proven fruiterers with desired genetics. That can very often outperform the crap shoot of MS.

An isolate is just a single strain of mushroom mycelium. It can be worth doing to find an amazing specimen, but time consuming. Many people just do MS because you're almost guaranteed results. If you start from a clone, your genetics are limited. Let's say you can see 10 sectors in the clone plate. If you fruit out all of those 10, some can be non-fruiting, some will do well, some may do amazing.

You're definitely limiting genetics with each transfer, but how much is hard to tell. There could still be many strains present. If your 5th transfer is giving you awesome results, I'd store that and just keep making plates from it. If your goal is to whittle down to isolates and see which fruits the best, keep going.

But if you're just transferring along, not saving earlier plates, you're definitely limiting the gene pool. And you could easily wind up with the genetics that don't perform well. This is why people store proven cultures long-term and just go back, take a small piece of it, and grow a new plate with those genetics.

Those look very close to isos, I would take transfers to new plates for further isolating before doing anything else with those

I have 4 more of each just like these. I have dishes ready for transfer. Right on. Thanks x3P

I did and that was the gist of what I got out of it but I may be way off...

either way I ended up taking your advice and going with a 99.99%  that was a fair amount cheaper on ebay. http://catalog.tfsi1.com/Documents/MICROGUARD%2099.pdf the 36 x 48 model.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/361177874783 $350 with shipping!
weird thing was I searched ebay for days and couldn't find anything and then accidentally stumbled upon it while looking up specs for the one I had decided on before.
Again thanks for everyone's help with clarifying all the details and really making the decision a million times easier.
That's priceless.

Does anybody know if A+ Albino is a slow to fruit strain? I'm having trouble getting a test tub to fruit. I may have over watered it, but looking for feedback. Thank you.

Are wide mouth quart mason jars shorter than regular mouth? I've no way to check that, they don't sell those jars here.

I imported mason jars regular mouth from the land of freedom a while back, the thing is that I can't possibly fit as many jars in my pc as the manufacturer says, bummer.

Dude every brand is a different size.
I have like 4 or 5 different brands of mason jars and one random wide mouth.

I find bernardin to be the best for stuffing a PC

Golden harvest are too fat but a solid second contender and still fit. I got tall slender ones and even slightly taller ones than that (forget the names)

I think I have a ball brand but I'd have to check

I believe the wide mouth bernardin are the same height as the reg mouth tho
