My first grow was mazatapec, I kept fucking with it and it wouldn’t pin and got way too dried out on the surface. Finally I gave up and forgot about it and a week later it was almost a canopy 

My second and third tubs were expert level side pinsets

My first PE grow

A clone is still pretty close to spore. You’ll need to do a bunch of transfers before you’ll start seeing more consistent results. I take tiny transfers and about t3 seems to be where i start getting uniform mushrooms with clone cultures.
Each sector on your plate is like a different strain, so you can take a bit from a few sectors and transfer until they’re uniform on agar, then grow them out and see what you get.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the more you transfer, the higher the chance you’ll get traits that are on the extreme end of the spectrum whether good or bad. If you happen to isolate some potent genetics you’ll be set, but you could also end up with nearly inactive mushrooms. It’s still rare but doing a lot of transfers increases the probability.

Looks like a young culture that doesn't know what it wants to do. It may never figure that out on agar. I'd run that if I wanted to see what it thinks about and what it's desires are. Just a small test run.
If you want it to "break" just throw it in a lc brine and then go back to agar. the different communities in there will "run" when you put it to plate again. If you do I bet you get a rhizo, a tom, and a couple mono loners. The mono loners are the ones causing the indecision of form there. Breaking the culture will reveal the "colonies" of co-existential hyphae that prefer each other.

I banned myself from this thread years ago because I kept accidentally answering questions...
I can do that now! 
I try to go to grain before the culture hits the edge, but I'm not sure if that's paranoia or not.
as for going to another plate it doesn't matter if you do it right after removing from cold storage or if you wait. imo the only benefit to waiting is improved recovery time.
just don't take a plate from cold storage to a grain jar without testing it between.

I can't say that I can show you the experiments but through the years people have done side by side grows of straight to fruiting and having the consolidation period. It's been shown to produce fruits faster with the same, if not better results. Just like coir is contaminant resistant so there's no need for proper pasteurization unless you are using things like manure or coffee that will go bad very quickly. The bucket method took off and now people are using room temp water to hydrate their coir. I still believe that myc prefers a "cooked" coir over a straight from the tap hydrated sub. Mush cult has came a long way since RR's info with people trying new things. When I started nobody grew Pans in mono, it was unheard of and now that's a thing. Hopefully this helps.

I aim for the higher limit. It's fine to ask, this stuff is complicated and has too many variables anyway. Even proper pasteurization won't make stuff mold-resistant forever. I find it's better to over-heat the pasteurization than under-heat.

first grow summer 05. amazing.
second grow fall/winter 05-7. grew a good amount. stopped. became a drunk
3rd time was 2016. grow abysmal shrooms but enough to cure the drinking.
2016-2018 grew inhuman amounts of mushrooms. learned more advanced techniques. grew more shrooms than i could give away.
on/off the last few years. been slacking recently but house buying/gardening/weed growing will distract you from growing shrooms.
first cultivated shrooms

last grow

Definitely not my first grow but the only thing left from the old mycotopia board is the archives and my 1st wasn’t archived lol. I didn’t even grow anything until my third try. This is from my first couple years tho. May 2003

Last grow

Are you asking if you can add nutritional yeast flakes to sterile no pours?
If that is the question then no you shouldn't. If your dishes/cups aren't good it's best to just make a new batch entirely. Adding nut yeast to no pours is a recipe for disaster.
Just make some new ones with a good recipe. I like about 1.5% LME with 1 gram of yeast per 500 ml of liquid. It's cheap, it's water and 3 ingredients. Very easy.
