Multispore with good genetics?
    #23889982 - 12/03/16 09:13 AM (7 years, 1 month ago)

I have had a number of MS projects. Some with decent results. Some with not so decent results. Obviously, starting to work with agar is going to help reduce that issue.

I have my first mini round plates waiting to show some myc growth. In the meantime I decided to get some MS projects going. I noticed that one of the jars is showing decent rhizomorphic mycelium. Plus, I can tell it must be healthy because not even 3 days later and the mycelium is recovering very well!

Because everyone likes pictures:

Here is 3 days ago before I shook the jars.


3 days later and you can see both jars are recovering well. (two different varieties). However, the jar on the right has show better recovery.



So my question is if I see strong mycelium does that indicate good genetics? I know with MS you are dealing with a crap shoot. I guess the reason I am asking this is because I have read a few places about specific varieties will sometimes "self isolate".

I have also seen some MS grows looks like an isolation of specific genetics. As far as I know. When we attempt to isolate a genetic we are looking for rhizomorphic mycelium and eventually want to see perfect sectoring. But that does not determine if the actual fruits will have "good" genetics. But does that mean the mycelium is at least strong in regards to colonization time?

I have read many spore vendors say that a specific variety of cubensis has a "super fast" colonization time. When people talk about "what is the best cube" I know "they are all the same". But there are a lot of other factors that people actually care about. That would include how fast it will colonize a said spawn or substrate. Is this solely due to the randomized genetics we are attempting to isolate? Or is their actual weight to the idea that a different variety "brazil" or "thailand" variety in general will have a faster colonization time.

Is that a valid claim?

Mycelium appearance has basically nothing to do with performance.those could end up being the worst ones.

Rhizomorphic doesn't mean anything either.

Fast colonization time is one variable the culture could still pin for shit and have no potency once tested

I appreciate the feedback. It is kind of a pain that we could spent months on attempting to isolate or find good genetics and in the end it could be a waste of time in regards to results.

I suppose I'll just pray to the genetics gods and hope for good results! :grin:

bodhisatta is right.
Wait for the result of your MS grow. Clone a nice fruit and go on with the clone if the performance and potency is nice.
