Agar colonizing question
    #23831389 - 11/14/16 07:23 AM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Hey all, I've been a long time lurker and I have a question... I'm not sure if I missed this somewhere, but reading through the agar teks no one really clarifies after they inoculate the agar with their ms and put the lid back on.... what next? Where do you store for colonization? What Temps are optimal? Thanks in advance.

Store em at room temp, around 68-72f is ideal. Give em a light cycle of 12/12 on off if you can. If not no biggie, just good to get the myc on a cycle from the start if you can. Just store them in a shelf in a room somewhere.

So they shouldn't be stored in the dark? They technically don't need to colonize like jars do, in the dark?

Jars do not need to colonize in the dark.
Indirect light is said to be beneficial for mycelium growth.
I had agar dishes colonizing in a closed shelf without problems.
The lower the temperature the slower the growth.
Storing them at 60F is possible. As PinPornProducer said it is not ideal but possible.

Nothing should be in the dark. If you find info that says anything about keeping jars or mushroom things in the dark it's either 20 years old or wrote by a idiot that just regurgitated old ass info

Light doesn't cause pins either, especially not side pins
