I got one for you ferather since your pic describes you so well.


How fast does a saline solution 25% NaCL kill bacteria and mold spores?

Indeed, but that's because the food is-should be full of cellulose-starch-sugar, nitrogen (protein), and other.

If you add starch-sugar, nitrogen, and other, to a plain media such as vermiculite, things grow.
If you add just sugar, no other nutrients, to vermiculite, not much happens, or it stalls.

You can throw pure carbon at it all day, not much will happen without nitrogen.
I'm not saying all the other nutrients are not essential, because they are.

Cold substrates are classed as cold due to low nitrogen.

----

That being said, substrates containg no soluble (or 100% complex) carbon, can be enriched.
However, this must be done without adding a viable carbon source for spores.

This allows you to make a enriched low contamination substrate.


Paper enriched with macro-micro nutrients, no added carbon:

   

Plain paper with added sugar, no additives:

:takingnotes: your guess is better than mine.

Only reason I say 25% is because at 100°c 1ml of water can hold roughly .27-.28grams of salt

Just pondering life over here thanks. :rockon:

Is this going to be used on live mycelium? I've never tried this method on mycelium.
I have tried 25% salt + boiling water to clean yeast from containers.

Probably not but I may put a 25% solution into a petri. Basically lme with salt. Going to open it in my basement and see if anything will grow. Highly doubtful but why not.

More tests are needed on my part.

I see, interesting. You can also try adding a drop liquid seaweed to the agar surface, the bacteria is salt tolerant.

Why are you doing this? Just for the sake of experimentation?

If you do get any growth, what then?

Sake of experimentation if this and some other tests go well I may have something.

Also if something grows in 25% salt solution from my basement I'll question if I should buy this house lmao.

There are things that require high salt content to thrive. Doubtful they are in my basement.

You could try to find the maximum tolerance for the mycelium, and see if this reduces the overall contamination chance, as an agar clean-up recipe.

----

Here are some hobby containers, its a glass jar with plastic topper. I can modify the topper, or replace it with kitchen film or foil.
Can be used as spawn jars, tall agar jars, or any other purpose, the glass is tapered, and can be used for drinking.

I had better start eating (chocolate spread), I lost the topper from the first one I got.

That's a thought too would be good for innoculations of spores print or syringe. Especially with heavy bacterial prints.. hmm

Finally got the response I was looking for, it seems the sugar peg is mostly good for germinating.
After sugar dropping my test sample with ~14% sucrose water, it has regenerated better.

Growth is about twice as lively than on the trace sugars in the peg.
Still no contamination, just weak cubensis on a peg.

   

----

Experiment, cubensis spawn on WL-Tek (enriched cellulose, no added carbon):
Using 10% (dry-to-dry), brown rice spawn for speed and delivery.

     

     


Here I was testing basic storage in low O2, which worked for a while.

     

Turned to goo eventually, water works best.

So question. This jar has been colonizing since the 25th and I see no green on the outside. Does that mean it's good to go? All the other ones got contaminated sadly. Would you shoebox this? Just ignore any dark spots you see. Those are shadows. My cell phone sucks. My 18-55 lens is sucking at life right now and not working.

I want to but I'm so afraid. What if there is like the tiniest bit of contam hiding out in there. All my jars got sick except this one.

And we are talking over 20 contaminated jars. So yeah. I'm paranoid. I kinda fucked this one up. My agar looks really nice though now that I cleaned everything. Not seeing any visible contams yet.

I’m that case G2G is safer.

If you spawn to shoebox and there is one speck of contam, the whole thing is ruined. If you g2g it and there is one speck of contam, you’ll probably get at least some good jars out of it. :shrug:

Because if you have one speck of contam, in reality when you g2g you will spread it around enough to fuck up all receiving jars?

That is most likely I logiced, but at best you could get some clean ones

Completely agrees with you. I would end up breaking up the bits of mycelium and spores from the contam and spreading it to several jars. Then I can collect an extra 9 jars of contams. For fucks sake. There trying to ruin my life Cronicer. :grin:

I think I'll smell it then shoe box it.
