Open air g2g transfer tip
    #25559849 -

Almost everywhere I have read about g2g transfers, I overwhelmingly hear about how important it is to do this with a flowhood or still air box. A lot of people even think it's impossible to have success without using either of those believe it or not. Dont get me wrong I understand that it's better to be safe than sorry and that they definitely help but at the same time I feel like the shroom community has a issue of scaring people off before they even give cultivating a shot. Im not pointing fingers but alot of what I have read makes it feel like your gonna fail if you don't follow the rules or guidelines a perfect 100%. Or if you don't have all these extra accessories, etc. I believe it makes this hobby very intimidating to get into when most the information available is full of contradictions and I don't mean to be rude but also full of people just talking out of there ass. I've been told many times that if I try a liquid culture I'll get a contam if I don't use SAB or flow hood. The consensus was you have a maybe 5 percent chance of success doing this in open air. That's weird though,  because i have over 21 liquid cultures. 21 different strains and some I have multiples of so closer to 30 in total.  All done in open air and 0% contams. All have been tested on new jars and all were great.  Same goes for the grain to grain transfer I was talking about at the beginning.  Ive done g2g transfers already atleast 25 times.  I know that's not a ton but it's because I just started recently. I was hesitant to even try it because of all the info I read. Glad I did go for it because I was 100% successful in open air. I like it even more then using LC. Amazing how fast it works. I know this is a long and all over the place rant but I hope someone new gets some peace of mind from this.  There is plenty of good advice but there is also plenty of bad advice so Don't be afraid to find things out for yourself. I'm not advocating that people should cut corners or half ass it, I just don't like how alot of people try to make this harder then it really is. I respect the veterans of this hobby but even they know this doesn't take a genius to do.

I don't know where you live man, but it must be clean.

There's no way in hell I'll even attempt such a thing.

See this is exactly what I'm talking about.  Many people feel the same way you do, which is fine.  Do whatever works best for you, but I was completely honest.  And I live in a old house that is far from super clean.  I mean its not a pig pen but by no means is it cleaner then your average home

I'm sure his mycelium is a nice healthy yellow gray. You guys are strict with all your tools and hating on other "colors" of mycelium. I think its racist.

when giving advice its good to give good advice.
My father told me wear a condom. He never said just pull it and you wont get her pregnant... that would be bad advice.
Same for grain transfer better safe than sorry use protection be safe and give good advice not advice that could get you in trouble.
Even if you have had good luck so far its not good practise.

You're gonna be mad at meee but....

You joined the Shroomery 22 days ago.  I'm guessing you've lurked on the forum a while before making a profile. Even still.. its gonna be tough to tell TCs that have been at this for decades and have taken microbiology classes in accredited universities that SABs are overrated or not needed in micology.

However, I completely understand and agree with you that veterans at this hobby can make the hobby seem harder than it is.  I for one always steer new comers towards the PF Tek.  That way they don't need to know terms like "agar, liquid inoculate, sterile technique, isolating, transfers, etc.,"

On the flip side a lot of new comers show up here to the Shroomery convinced that they want to start a monotub for they're first grow.. and they dont even fully understand what a monotub is or how to build a proper one.  But these guys are certain they want to start there, with all their eggs in one basket on their very first grow...

...So TCs and veterans hit them with the... "Ok then, better buy a PC because you'll need to use grains, better build an SAB, better take the spores to agar because you dont want to fuck a whole tub on contaminated spores. Etc, etc. Complicted terms, etc., etc."

Anyways.. I digress.. a lot of these new comers get complicated and/or difficult responses because they want to start from a difficult and complicated point rather than the easy route.  TCs are just trying to prepare them for what's to come. Not intimidate them.

I understood your rap.  I said lolwut as what you stated is poor practice and pretty much just stupid.  There’s a reason we (and professional cultivators) work in sabs and in front of flow hoods.  You might have some success here and there open-air but it won’t be consistent.  You say you tested all these lcs on grain and they’re clean, yet contams often aren’t apparent until it’s spawned.  I’d like to see the fruit from these grows.

"My father told me wear a condom. He never said just pull it and you wont get her pregnant... that would be bad advice."

"Use a spermicidal lube and pull it" would have been better advice.  Who the fuck can even enjoy sex while using a condom?  Plus, it's really fun to pull it.
