Probably just a culture that can't handle a lot of food. You try it on a lower nutrient agar?

I think its cus its been in room temp for like a year maybe a bit less but all my agar is low nutrition, might jus go back to spores and find another clone.

You had this culture in a Petri dish at room temp for a year before transferring it?

yeah there were pins on the plate so i transferred the plate, but at the speed its going, it would take weeks to be shakable in a grain jar.

Since you guys are going for a nipple look, maybe you should check out fimetaria, they might be able to put out decent potency, seem to fruit easily, and are totally semilanceata lookalikes.

Hey smalltalk ive put the spores u sent me on a few plates, theyve been on agar (potato flake agar) for a few days without germination and ive heard folks saying semp is especially susceptible to spore death with age, do u have an average germ time range.

Aside from the yellow spots, does this look ok? Does the mycelium standing up like this mean it needs FAE?

Rough day, had to spawn like 50 jars to each it's own container because of coir paranoia and drastic economic needs.
Coir stories: Landing on that exo terra coir is fucking terrible shit, at least the ones ive been receiving. Molds on its own in 1-2 tests where it was pretty wet, sometimes the bricks dont come loose, one brick had coir so hard it became stuck in the "saucepan" when trying to hydrate/expand it. Took herculean strenght to get even small pieces out. Know how this sounds, but its happenin.
Cant even get the coir out of the pan after drying it.
Now saucepan just sits there, as I have others, with dry coir inside and a gnarly red handled knife sticking out of it, like some deranged scene out of a coir horror movie. The crows watch with pleasure, their black judgeful eyes.
Big losses to carry out also. 20 kilos of contaminated jars up the elevator. Probably 150-250 of my unamerican less than 1 mycoquart jars to replace just by the mid of this month, to keep things sweet for summer. Gonna pull some double nights, where I sterilize grains for 10 hours in total. Margins.
Outdoor contaminated spawn: found some averies albinoes that came up in the garden. Looked like button chonkers. It seems cubes and natal when planted outside, favors the chode body with the huge cap, probably for spore dispersal. Thats my experience at least.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aegopodium_podagraria#:~:text=Aegopodium%20podagraria%20%28commonly%20called%20ground%20elder%2C%20herb%20gerard%2C,the%20carrot%20family%20that%20grows%20in%20shady%20places.
Garden weed state: completely overrun by Aegopodium podagraria. Okay, so it gives microclimate. But wont this weed compete with the mycelium for micro nutrients and water?
Fighting it seems pointless, the padagraria respawns from nothing in a few weeks. Making me having to actually search through the leaves and scrubbage for signs of fruits. If at least I knew it was supporting, and not competing, I would rest easier.
9 hours of work today spawning jars outside and inside, didnt even eat, drink or take any other pause than shitting now drinking and smoking

Morning fellow Shroomers
A few days back my brother and I collected some more cubes, ( rather crazy as this time of year is winter here), that said they were sparse, and i would only image how the place would go off in summer.
We decided against spore prints are we have a very dense one from a past hunt.
For sure will be working with agar on this as it will have contamination from the wild.
With a good pot, it has a tight lid and pressure release on the top, i was thinking boiling the agar then simmering for 90 - 2hrs? To sterlize the best we can.
Once its cool enough will pour plates in the SAB, and then i am thinking instead of wasting the parafilm, i could use glad wrap to wrap the dishes before innoculating the next day....... i should start a first grow thread

That looks awesome. (EDIT: looks wild and crazy, but not a diagnosis)
What's in the back right corner though? is that a mushroom? can't tell.

It looks stressed to me. Trying to outrun some nasties. Such dense/aerial myc reaching to the sky isn't a good sign generally speaking. Fingers crossed for ya Bleu!
(Also, in addition to that, it's most likely a yes to the FAE question Bleu, what are you providing it in that regard? Holes, cracked lid, or nothing yet?)

Thanks H.O., It was a bacterial quart to begin with so you're right on it fighting but seems to be colonizing like a champ. I was not giving it any FAE until after I took this pic so we should be looking good in a few days.

Very bacterial grain tends to do that, it looks like it is colonizing like a champ, because it's running really hard from the nasties and trying to take everything over asap in an attempt to push out some mushrooms as that is it's survival mechanism/imperative. Just like humans/most earthly organisms it wants to make babies before it dies. However in a case this severe, I'd be surprised if it made it through the first flush before it gets the green meanie. 
It can happen though, so here's to hoping!

Yea it will just go higher too. Might looks at milo/sorghum if it gets out of hand, personally I prefer milo.

Wheat or die!
I mean milo and millet were already over $20 for 50lbs before all this inflation nonsense. I imagine it will go up also. Plus I kinda hate birdseed and vowed to never go back after discovering wheat 
I'll just have to deal with it but I wont be happy

I just pulled a jar of LC out of the fridge, should I let it sit until tomorrow morning before I pour, that way it's at room temp? Or should I just pour now?
