On another note, is an Instant Pot enough for Agar work? It is what I have been doing, and I have great success. ANy contam is virtually due to some hiding bacteria that I have gotten rid of.
that being said, if I am somehow not getting them sterilized after 45 mins at probaly 12psi that might be an issue
There's a much better thread that goes into detail but I can't find it rn and I'm tired as fuck.
If you search agar instant pot then somebody will have shared times but 45 min sounds about right, idk tho.
Only way to tell is by leaving a control plate untouched for a while, if that doesn't contam then its your process.

It can help speed up colonization.
If can also help spot contaminated spawn. If it doesnβt recover, itβs a tosser

I get great results using an Instant Pot for agar. I only run my agar for 30 mins at 12.5 psi and I've never had issues with contaminants on my plates.

I've used instapot for agar just did 60 min pressure cook high pressure. And have gotten no contam from sterilization just some of my sterile work so yes instapot works fine I run for 60min but less might work

If I had the shitty luck of receiving a print or a syringe that produces fruits with weak potency, can anything I do change this or should I just start again with a new print.

Don't drop the print just yet. If it was indeed the genetics then another plate made from the same spores will have completely different genetics than the first one. But if the second one is a bust too, then I'd stop working on them and look for some new spores.

Just go back to spore from the same print. Every two spores in a print will make strain, and the fruits from the same tub, even the same flush from MS can have a lot of expressed variability. Once you get some fruits you like, make a clone culture and run that.

 Definitely this. In the overwhelming majority of cases the lacking potency was due to improper drying and storage techniques. I've only rarely heard about mushrooms being weak from the get go due to potency.

Hmmmm you might be one of the few occasions I've read/heard about inherently weak mushrooms, congratulations

Then all points towards weird genetics. Knock up a new plate with the same spores and it should be better. Good luck!
Out of curiosity: Did they bruise like usual when handling them?

This is what I'm thinking also. Yes blue bruising and all. PESH from a sponsored vendor. The syringe was jacked up to begin with. Looked like it had been sitting in storage for years or some shit.

I grew some Tidalwaves last year which did absolutely nothing when consumed. Many friends tried them with zero effect, even doses of 7gs.

If they turn out to be bunk you are just around the corner to unlock the marketplace either way, so you'll be decked out on spores for life soon. Also you can hit me up, I have three freshly made AA+ prints from a culture that produced crazy amounts of pretty strong microscope slides.
