First time cultivator question
    #23665085 - 09/21/16 01:33 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

So I am doing my first grow using the PF Tek substrate in half-pint jars using a spore syringe (AA+) for inoculation. The following pics are 5 days into colonization. My question is if based on these pics everything is going right. I have inoculated 6 jars, 5 of them seem to have dense spots of mycelium growth, however 1 of the jars seems to be very pale and spreading at a much quicker rate. Do these appear to be healthy and is there some other factor that could cause the difference in mycelium growth rate?

Sometimes mycelium doesnt have rhizomorphic growth, they look fine to me. I forgot how it's called correctly.I made a stupid begginer mistake and I ditched 11 b+ jars, only because they weren't having rhizo growth.

monokaryotic mycelium generally grows tomentose(cottony and puffy) until it finds another strains it's compatible with, then it forms dikaryotic mycelium, which grows rhizomorphically(rope-like growth) The dikaryotic mycelium is what produces mushrooms.

I challenge you to find a single instance of monokaryotic mycelium.  Spoiler: You won't.

This isn't even worth talking about, it's so goddamn rare and unobtainable by normal means.  Dikaryotic mycelium can be tomentose just as well.

Please put pictures of several 'normal' jars as well. Looks like normal mycelium to me. As for the difference in growth rate, perhaps somehow this specific jar in a more optimal spot for growth (in a warmer/hotter spot of your incubation box), or maybe it gets less light or more air (through the filters). Perhaps you didn't mix your substrate well enough, so this jar got more nutrients, but all that is just a speculation. Maybe actually this jar got inoculated by a different strain. I grow Z-strain, it spreads quickly as hell, but its mycelium is almost never rhizomorphic.

Here are some of the other jars, and how they are currently colonizing, and how they have been sitting since inoculation (Inside the mason jar case, in the sun room of my house, but sunlight mostly blocked from the glass part of the jars, just the cheapest way of maintaining a decent amount of heat).'

Well this grow right here is just mainly out of curiosity, I don't plan on getting a large harvest, I'll be moving out of the house I'm currently living in in a few days, which is when I'll most likely start trying to be serious about it. I've never tried mushrooms however I look forward to doing so eventually, and look forward to cultivating in a proper environment, once moved out. Figured why not get beginner mistakes out of the way!

They all look good remember there are at least hundreds of thousands of spores in a single spore syringe.  So using multispore, getting different results in different jars is pretty normal, nothing to worry about .)

I was thinking this same thing. There has been an influx of grow kits on the shroomery lately.
