I wish I knew enough to understand whats wrong with your plate.
Pasty plates take two. Well still technically my first attempt with an partial fail. I seem to have a way with almost fucking shit up and then fixing it. Lets pray to the mushroom gods for clean plates that don't look like crushed soda cans full of orange jelly and that when my cat decided tio help me the second time around she didn't get hair in them.
I feel like you have to be a little bit insane to keep up with this hobby. Friggin, bacteria and mold contamination, cuts and hot plate burns and all kinds of fails when you first start out. And getting the money together and finding all the shit you need when your broke as fuck. 
I'm self soothing with some instant banana pudding I just mixed up in a cup. What bizarre thing possessed me to buy instant banana pudding today from the lot store I'll never know.

I have a feeling my cat is going to ruin a lot of things. But I love her anyways. I suppose if they are are sterilized a little hair never hurt anything.

I shook the shit out of a pint of oats with a oyster "puck" in there. Well I got plenty of mycelium on the grains, but that agar puck stuck to the top of the glass and is growing like mad. This oyster culture Bod sent me grows like a son of a bitch, very aggressive!

OK, I guess in that case their IS such as thing as to hard.
Confession I always love seeing someone hit it to hard and then lay on the floor dying in the fetal position for 5-10 min. As my old roommate would say, hurts so good, cause you high after that.

Gold oysters?
I had that happen with my blues...so I waited a little and shook the fuck out of it again when the wedge dried a bit and it fell on top of the grain.
Oysters grow so god damn fast man it's crazy.

Not sure, it is just a oyster culture that has been passed around. These are not far from the plate I got from Bod. I just had 6 plates overgrowing and said fuck it and threw 5 to grains.

Oysters really don't care
All my oysters seem clean but my cubes weren't on grain. Now I figure they just don't care and eat basically everything.

Im glad I have a cool basement I can pretty much fruit Kings and blues all summer and winter.
I tried out gold and just left them in a dry room too see what would happen. They grew pretty well providing I did absolutely nothing for them.

I had to get my gf to buy the mulch.. Was brutal lol couldn't wait til I got paid tho. Had to be spawned. She didn't care, but I felt bad. Got 56L of it tho lol gonna mix some with cvg for kings and put them in bags as well. Got a bucket I'm gonna put holes in and fruit Lionsmane in it.
I guess the confession here is I had no intentions of picking this hobby back up at the beginning of the year. My gf mentioned a small grow to get a few shrooms for a couple trips. I opened this site up to see what was new, found out a bunch has changed, and now it's completely taken over lol still haven't had a trip, but once everything starts running smoothly, we'll never want again.
Really glad she's taken an interest in this as well. She really likes that we can grow our own edibles in the house as well. She's taken on a few projects to get some Veggies growing in the house too. All about that self sustainability.
