use the recipe on pasty's plate tek but instead of the potato use grain soak water for your water measurement. Don't forget the drop of karo.

Nice to see you Nobler

I used up the last of my agar the other night.
I had 1.7 g agar left which I added to 150 ml of grain/wood water and it's borderline.
It seems great for germinating so far but it was a disaster doing transfers yesterday.
It was way too soft, when I would attempt to do the transfer I couldn't stick it to the receiving plate, it would just push into the agar.

Soluble agar, and soluble liquid culture | Alternative DIY method.
Germinates everything in 3-5 days, average, room temp.

Requires aseptic (sterile) working (be clean).


For nutrients provided, see here.


Recipe:

Optional: 1-2g > Calcium carbonate powder

2-3g > Dextrose monohydrate (brewers sugar, see here)
0.1g > Miracle-Gro, or other, soluble nutrients
0.1g > Yeast nutrient (or yeast extract)

100g > Boiling hot water
2.8g > Agar powder *


   


Not ideal for cleaning purposes.

Just found a GIGANTIC P. serbica today. Printing in progress. That shit is (almost) as big as Cyanescens.

Working with T-Gel antibacterial agar, and wood pegs:


T-Gel agar uses no added starch or sugar, laccase enzymes and the mycelium produce sugars via oxidization.


Here is oyster, strong enough to "selectively" devour mold, and a bacterial competitor.
This is infected WBS (wild bird seed) and T-Gel agar (modified camera settings).

                 

                 

----

Also, green mold is a wood loving mycelium, see some pics here, it will therefor germinate on pretty much any substrate supporting germination.
In my above pictures, its producing soluble food via enzymes, so not only is it being devoured, but it's also attracting oyster growth.

The oyster will produce the same enzymes as the mold (both wood loving, and both are primary decomposers).

----

Here are some images of oyster oxidizing T-Gel (extra strong) using laccase.

   
----

Ideal for cleaning lignicolous mycelium.
Caution: Can germinate spores.

Risk factor, exposed: Low.

Adding some pics of today's Serbicas. The two whitish ones were big, but look at that monster in my hand.



Also, found this six-pack of tumors. You don't see that every day!

They come armed with laccase, something like cubensis fails to do either well or at all.
Lignicolous mycelium will self provide sugars to improve cellulose decay.

Not as fast as absorbing sugars directly, but much safer.

Wood, untreated is about 50% carbon (from cellulose, lignin, other), and 0.1% nitrogen: [500:1] = bad yield, weak-slow growth.
All wood loving types benefit from the addition of missing, low nutrients, wood has a very low nitrogen ratio (cold).

Many species can be picky about what proteins they detect, sometimes in specific format.
Oysters will trap nematodes, and digest them as a source of protein (nitrogen).

The most universal format, is soluble ammoniacal or ureic nitrogen.
Dung contains both ammoniacal and ureic nitrogen.




----

Manure (decayed foods), note the three main nutrients, contains both ammoniacal and ureic nitrogen, high water content.




Alternative sources, note matching nutrients, plus many more:

     


----

Straw analysis:




Wood analysis:



----

Paper pellets:

   


Basic nutrient list, plant fiber based: Carbon, Potassium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Chromium, Copper, Iron, Manganese, Silicon.


If you don't add fast carbon (starch, sugar, lignin, other solubles), you don't get contamination germinating.
Using spawn, you have two potential options, enriched and 10%+ spawn, or 50/50 unchanged.

Convert spawn as, roughly: -55.55% carbs = carbon, -84% proteins = nitrogen.
Convert paper as, roughly: -64.55% dry = carbon, -99.8% dry = nitrogen.

20:1 for best yield, 40-60:1 for faster colonization.

----

If that fails, seek bacteria, or specific woods.

Also wood is acidic, check the best pH.



For live oyster mycelium, pH 7-8 produced the most vigorous growth.
Calcium carbonate, powdered, can be used to increase pH.

Most acidic materials decay above pH 6.5-7.

----

Multiple data sites stated an increase in laccase production with the addition of wheat bran.

----


Rough carbon to nitrogen guide:

Wood products: Contain about 50% carbon, 0.1% nitrogen, this is a carbon to nitrogen ratio of 500:1 (0.1 x 10, until 1%, 50 x 10 = 500).
Paper products: Contain about 40% carbon, 0.2% nitrogen, this is a carbon to nitrogen ratio of 200:1 (0.2 x 5, until 1%, 40 x 5 = 200).


Wheat bran, example:

Here is wheat bran, with total nitrogen of 2.560g per 100g. Wood has about 0.1g of nitrogen per 100g.

100g wood + 100g bran = 200g, 0.1 + 2.560 = 2.660, 2.660 / 2.00 = 1.33% nitrogen.
100g wood + 75g bran = 175g, 0.1 + 1.920 = 2.020, 2.020 / 1.75 = 1.15% nitrogen.
100g wood + 50g bran = 150g, 0.1 + 1.280 = 1.380, 1.380 / 1.50 = 0.92% nitrogen.
100g wood + 25g bran = 125g, 0.1 + 0.640 = 0.740, 0.740 / 1.25 = 0.59% nitrogen.

----

Some species-strains may like nitrogen rich leaves with their wood.
An example would be tea leaves, nice and rich in nutrients.

----

Wood ash, composition data here.

Bad ass!  :awedance:
Maybe this information can be used to help make better woodlover cakes.  :growshrooms:

There are three distinct realities occurring simultaneously.

The first involves a single point or object.
The second involves that point/object's relationship with other points/objects.
The third involves their relationships in motion.

I cant see why not, to be fair, gourmet wood loving, is wood loving.
Same basic settings, some changes here and there.

Thanks for that post Ferather... it's great to have all that info in one place. Will definitely reference that again!

Here's some Az ripping through a random chip blend.
Standard grain spawn > 2gal > 5gal. The recovery/leap-off is fantastic.

Nice ratio of spawn to substrate, looks great, what grain was it?

Oh... to clarify: I used a few pints (3 or 4) of spawn to the 2gal. That was done in a month or so, then the 2 went to the 5.

Right now I'm using hard red spring wheat from Great River Organic Milling.

You know the big Serbica I found yesterday?

Forget about that... Bumped into a new secret place!



Nearly shat my pants that's for sure. They apparently love conifer branches.

Oh right, I thought that was 2 gal dry spawn, to 5 gal dry wood (28.5% spawn).

Fuck, I put them into the oven to dry at 50°C and they are bluing and releasing tons of water and sticking to the paper. :frown:

I'm NEVER drying them like this again. I hope they didn't lose too much potency. But the bluing tells me they did..

Shame you cant dehydrate them in a CO2 or no air environment.

I've considered storing them in carbonated water.
Or even something like fizzy lemonade.

Oven is good, but you need to open-air dry them a bit first. Otherwise they'll become a sticky wet mess.
