Idk what's up with me today, but when i was in there it was too much of a shitshow to trust it without iso.

I'm a seasonal grower, don't like to run the dehydrator and the AC.  So I can relate. Just did my 3rd round of agar work this season and seem worse each time. Way out of practice.

Can you transfer a culture on agar or some other substrate too many times?

The further you transfer away from the origin the weaker it becomes I believe.
That one of the reasons why keeping slants is a good idea, it allows you to keep cell divisions down by staying close to origin.

A master on agar will need expanding eventually, it's suggested to variate the media, this should encourage material detection and various enzymes.
If you stick to the same recipe when expanding the master, it could end up being picky after transfer, or generating senescence.

There are various factors that will cause cellular senescence, DNA damage, and spores will be needed eventually.

An example is malt extract, it's soluble (not suggested long term), and made from grain + enzymes.
The mycelium should secrete it's own enzymes, so I suggest flour or grain water agar.

You can also try a more complex sugar source such as cellulose (egg carton).


In most cases you use sterilized, cut down, toothpicks.

I believe senescence is something you obtain after like 120+ transfers. Plus they're cubes, they don't mind eating ''chicken'' for dinner every night.

It is usually much less than 120.

Why Some Fungi Senesce and Others Do Not
An Evolutionary Perspective on Fungal Senescence

Organisms with a ‘unitary body plan’ – such as many mobile animals – have a determinate structure composed of strict numbers of body parts, specialised organs and a separate germ line. Unitary organisms are arguably all subject to the process of senescence, resulting in death even under protected idealised conditions. Organisms with ‘modular body plans’, however – including plants, fungi and (sessile) animals such as hydroids and bryozoans – seem to escape this process and are potentially immortal. Modular organisms are composed of multiple genetically identical vegetative modules that may remain attached or become separated to form physiologically independent clones. Here all cells are in principle totipotent and capable of expansion and reproduction, so death of parts of a modular organism does not necessarily cause the death of the whole organism (Figure 17.1). In plant biology these modules are generally referred to as ‘ramets’. The ensemble of ramets that makes up a single genetic entity is generally referred to as a ‘genet’. The body plan of an organism has major implications for the wayselection can act. In modular organisms, selection rarely acts directly on the genet: the unit of selection is usually the ramet. Fungi are considered to be modular organisms with no clear distinction of a germ line. With the expansion of the mycelium, chances for reproduction are expected to increase,and each unit under favourable circumstances may produce offspring (Figure 17.1B, right). Fungi with such modular body plans are expected to be long-lived, as most fungi indeed seem to be. However, some fungi exist that do senesce, and their growth often seems to be limited by space or time. For these fungi, we consider the term ‘pseudounitary’ (Figure 17.1B, centre), as life history details and ecological conditions constrain the size of the soma and the opportunities for reproduction. In this chapter we discuss why fungi are usually long-lived and why there are exceptions to this. We predict life history traits and ecological conditions that favour the evolution of fungal senescence. Finally, we discuss the proximate mechanisms of fungal senescence in the light of this evolutionary context.

Here is another factor, and test, I can feed mycelium with 12%+ sugars, however on a complex media which is nutritional (macro-micro nutrients).
The mycelium grew out vigorously rather than died, this is because the sugars where "spendable", which I will try to explain.

Enzymes, cells and various materials are composed of C-H-O, C-H-N-O plus variations, sucrose is 99.9% C-H-O.
Due to ample macro-micro nutrient uptake-availability, the mycelium could spend the sugars.

The sugars where used along with the nutrients to produce cells, enzymes and so on.

----

Here is my T-Gel, plain (no added flour), sorry for the image quality, I had temperature fluctuation issues.
The first two are completely plain, the second two are with added macro-micro nutrients.

With added nutrients, the carbon present was more "spendable" as mentioned.

   

   

Tarragon oyster (lignicolous).

----

@DreamReality

That's a nice quote, I have revived 2 year old spent, dried out mycelial tissue, a few times now.

----

Edit: Add more data and illustrations (although with phenols, not sugars).

Anyone have suggestions for buying bulk rye or wheat in Ontario, Canada?

I know some farm feed stores will carry it but I've yet to find one. I have had success with finding wheat kernel at bulk barn but it is quite expensive.



Try getting "Fall Rye" seed at the farm feed store. People use it as a cover crop in the garden.Thats all I use.  Bakery supply places will cary whole grains.

Well, i made 6 qts and 6 pints yesterday. Went to inoculate them and it's like ive never seen a sab. I got 3 done and gave up. Today's not the day. I probably just wasted about 5 bux of grain. Whar would you do with it?




Trypt, dude, That was me like last week, It happens, you can overthink and mentally build up a myco task like SAB work until it seems monumental or impossible to do that day. Yesterday was the first time I threw out uninoculated grain that was left over from that sesh. Sometimes you feel like you're just fucking about imitating actual mycologists/biologists and every failure starts compounding a sense of personal failing.

Then you see a couple pins and suddenly it all seems worthwhile:pipesmoke:

Why spend more money for the same end result?

Rye berries from a specialty store or whole oats from TSC. 25kg' of whole oats costs a fraction of the price of anything else.

oats are a pain to get down. they require way too much dry time for my liking. switching from animal food to people grade wheat was a major step towards clean spawn for me

To each their own, for me it was the opposite. The reduction in dry time doesn't justify the increased cost for me....but that's just me. I plan on making a wood framed screen drying rack with a box fan underneath, (seen it somewhere on the forum) this should significantly reduce drying time. (Which isn't really a problem to begin with, I just like projects)

Dry time is easily shortened with a paper towel rub down :shrug: I've tried fans, screens, heat, etc. Physically getting the moisture off is the fastest. Still needs to dry a slight bit more after though.

I'll grab something more sturdy than paper, maybe a dedicated shammy that I can wash and re-use.
