bod mentioned this grow looked to wet. the fruits grew to decent size but they bent over. i noticed the same thing with aa+ when i did another grow but with much smaller fruits.

i guess im wondering if this is genetic or conditions?

The mushrooms that are tipping over as they mature probably have a mutation commonly seen in true albino mushrooms. IIRC mushrooms switch from a geotropic to phototropic response as spores mature and the cap starts to open.

Awesome thread idea! I hope this lasts!

Does this cube myc look bacterial? I ask not because I see anything that looks like bacteria on the plate but because of the thick root-like looking sectors.

I found the plate and took a pic. It is the same media. I have seen this once before and it seem like when I go back and take another transfer problem solved. So I didn't know if it was a poor isolate. It is a clone in this pic. Did the best I could to get light to shine through. EDIT a transfer from a clone line.

Probably. Many of my ideas become mold farms.
The same thing with boiling water rather than boiling hot whey is one of the only things I've tried that worked so far.

I don't recall where I got this method. I thought it was common. I will take the advice you connote and not waste much spawn on this experiment. Thanks man.
●Update it colonized, pinned, then turned green with a rich earthy odor. It's been turfed. No whey I'll try that again.

Hi. I made a mono 45l box. P.cube Ecuador ratio 1:2 spawn - coir. no date stamp (bravo) But the most it could be standing at 28C is 14days. I did not trim the liner, just inverted the edge on all sides of the box and covered with lid for GA.
How does it look? Thats water droplets covering mycelium.

Should I knock up my agar straight from the syringe or use my makeshift inoculation loop I made from a bread tie? I've never used one bc I'm kind of a newb and don't know how.

Found a spot on my dish that doesn't look like mycelium. Any ideas as to what it might be?

Thanks to you and bod for the additional info regarding slants, liquids, and fungi breathing and shit. I could post this in true confessions, but I'm very bad at differentiating between very tomentose mycelium (esp starting from MS) because I got decent enough at agar early on and kept the same cultures alive for years (still have like 12 unopened syringes that are probably dead now).

That's Ghostie from a really nice Shroomery member. What do you think, Munch? Bacteria for sure?

thats a tough one. I've had some plates do the thing where the myc dips below the surface of the agar. but your surface level myc looks a bit different. you said those are spore inoculation sites? or are they transfers?
 this was kss that i eventually cleaned up and fruited just fine

What does it mean if I am getting larger fruit growing from the very bottom of my cakes (like between the cake and foil) and smaller pinset at the top??? Is this a sign of low humidity?
Should I leave them be? Flip the cake on its side? Flip the cake 180*?
