Hello everyone
..
I have a question. I had 6 jars that I inoculated from same seryge. And I did a huge monotub with 5 of them and a tray with the other. everything is going well. Can't complain. Not the best pinnset not the huge tub but its not what i wanna know.

On my big tub I have a 50/50 verm/coco coir
  And fruits look awsome.

On the tray just to try something new I did. Coco coir/peat moss/worm castings/rice flower/verm/gypsum/straw/perlite/beer heist/aveia.

Everything is going ok. The big tub has normal fruits  but the tray w the supper substrat has realy strong collors to them. The Capps have a dark brown collor.

What do you have to say about them?



Tomorrow with good lights il thake pics from both tub and tray so you can see the diference.

It can be conditions.  The tub is in diferent cinditions than the tray. But it can be the substrat. Now. How do i go about mesuring potency on the diferent substrates?

Thanks for the quick reply's everyone!! I will let these stay as they are for the next few days until they reach approx. dime to nickle size so I can have a better idea of which sectors I may want to take to the next tray(s). Truly appreciate all the help and teks provided by all the TC's and other members out there, will check back in with new pics when I return in a few days!

you are probably not going to be able to distinguish sectors on the germ plate unless you diluted and streaked your spores. too many genetics piled on genetics. i find it to be best to just take a couple transfers quickly and then start letting them grow out a bit more in search of healthy sectors.

I really dont get why people use fish netting or nylon mesh to dry their grains out. Ive tried this method and the grains got so dry all the jars stalled out, tried RRs grain tek, boiled and steam dried and it works a dream, I find the grains just a tiny bit moist on the outside (dimples of moisture in the toilet paper test) is more ideal than pure dry grain, simple from the fact that the grains dont dry out before the mycs done and master jars can take multiple shakes for g2g without drying up.



because I can prep 25 lbs at a time... how many colanders you think this would take? 10? 20? ya they dont make sense when you scale up at all

the purpose of a fan/mesh combo is to prep grain quickly, and nothing else. im not sure what you guys are going on about. having grains dry on the outside is not bad, Josex. Its actually how people have been prepping grain for many years, see the paper towel test. dry to the touch is literally how RR tells you to prep in his videos, and those videos are solid.

and tbh, I have never been able to get my grains to pass the paper towel test using RR's methods. They always came out wet, so I changed my approach. without a fan, a load like that would take 4-6 hours to dry adequately with frequent stirring. with the fan on, they will be ready in under 2 hours with just one or two stirs.

My grain is bone dry on the outside before loading.

Bone dry and room temp. The hydration is inside.




You guys use oats as far as I can remember, right? Maybe that has something to do. Oats have that nice hull, so even if it looks dry on the outside the hull may retain some moisture on the inside, this is just speculation but maybe that's what's happening.

All I know is that if I let my wheat get actually bone dry on the outside the grains come out dryer than I'd like, still usuable but I def see way slower colonization.

When I turn off the fan (before getting them actually bone dry) they grains will pass the paper test alright, but they don't feel actually bone dry to the touch even if they look like that when you jar em up.  Never been able to get them bone dry using multiple strainer and tossing the grains kinda like a cheff does, not even in 90 minutes, never tried more time than that coz ain't nobody got time for that.

I've talked to people who use wheat that have experienced the same issue if they get them actually bone dry. As far as prep goes, I just rinse the grains thoroughly to get rid of dirt and unwanted stuff, thow the grains in the PC, cover with cold water and simmer for 40-45 minutes, so they end up looking really plump and fully hydrated, but can't get them actually dry on the outside or I'll have issues. It's not so cut and paste guys, your experience may vary. :shrug:

Ahhh, good to know. Went straight from MSS to Agar on these as I dont have an inoculation loop yet. Did 10 dishes total on 6-17. All 5 of my GT's from MS have already turned bacterial (had a very hard time getting only one drop out of that syringe at a time). Had much better luck with the PE MS syringe and was able to get individual dots ( single inoculation point) which seems to have been much better (or at least that syringe had less contams). Going to try and redo the Golden teachers this morning before I pack up for camping. Thanks for the help Verum!!

no worries man. don't trip on not having a loop. any sterile thing will work. twist up some wire and flame sterilize or pc a couple q tips and use those to streak a plate or two.

that looks like there's something riding along in there. Mold likes to do that, but cube mycc can given temp swings. Those rings exhibit more contrast than if it were pure myc. That clone looks awesome. Well done! I hope it performs well.

I have one word for you. Genetics.

You measure potency by eating mushrooms. With ms every mushroom is different. Also, the substrate isn't where potency is, its the mushrooms

Wondered how people were sterilizing their Q-Tips.. That makes so much sense to pop them in the PC while the Agar is sterilizing at the same time... Think for now I will be twisting up some wire and flaming it red hot. Next time I make agar I will make sure to throw in another container with some Qtips so I can properly streak my plates.

Hopefully it’s not mold tryptkaloids because they’re all doing it some are just more pronounced



Maybe I didn’t PC it long enough and they’re all screwed. I used premixed mea and their instructions recommend PCing for 45 minutes but I just did the normal 20-25 minutes. Oh well if it is I’ll just toss them.

Even if your don't have a huge screen, I've gotten a bigass piece of cardboard and spread out the grains.

I love drying outside.

i don't know legend. i've done some experiments with light cycles to try and pronounce heavy rings and never achieved rings that pronounced. it's cool looking but i don't know why it's happening. are the temp swings extreme where they reside?

I have only seen it this extreme in a culture that was carrying along mold (or it might have only been mold haha).

I have a couple cultures that came from a “Peru” print that was like that, just scrapped the t4 yesterday and realized Ms today as I didn’t trust it

I don’t think so. Maybe 5-10 degrees cooler at night. They are definitely getting ambient light though. They are across the room from where my fruiting chamber and shoeboxes with cfls are. But nothing direct. And it’s only those Rak Media MEA dishes all of the pda dishes and pasty plates are fine :shrug:

The really pronounced ones I would personally trash instead of using.

I had too many grain jars get tossed from questionable plates I was confident in, I’d rather not fuck it up that way anymore
