Where to transfer from a fully col dish
    #23837072 - 11/15/16 10:04 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

Q: Where do I cut a wedge out of a completely colonized dish?

I ordered bunch of cultures. Most are dated Oct 10 (arrived today) and all the ones that are a Pleurotus variety have colonized the entire dish. I know I'm suppose to take wedges from the leading edge of the myc, and not too close to the wall of the dish where supposedly there may be bacteria. Also, there are some random parts of myc that are higher, like thicker, bumpy.
I was planning to expand to other dishes, expand to grain, and maybe make some slants.
Thanks

Also, any commercially viable Pleurotus, cold or hot strains.
Thanks for the Q&A, trades, and all the posters & teachers that have come before us  :skol:

You can cut a wedge out of the middle or along the leading edge.  Personally, I've never noticed a difference.

Stick a clean toothpick in it, and wait, you can make tons over time.
Pretty much a master agar, using wood pegs to transfer.

Transfer the peg to seed or grain, expand.

I cut mine in a grid and scoop with the scalpel as much as i can into each bag. I typically use one dish for 1-3 6lb spawn bags. The more pieces you can make the quicker it will colonize. The only thing i must caution is using old plates that are massivly overgrown as they can hide contamination, you want to transfer them to a fresh plate and then use that once freshly colonized.

Gr0wer, what kind of colonization times are you getting by taking wedges to bags? I have been blending dishes and pouring into bags using a jar and oster blender blade attachment, It has been working pretty good, 100% in 10 days and 6 6# bags per plate, but I would rather get rid of the blending step if I could take wedges to bags with good success.

maybe 2 weeks. I would skip the blending as its not really needed.
