Circular patterns on agar usually result from different lighting
or temperature swings.
Not saying it´s not contam though :wink:

Does this happen to you often?  If so, which species?  Cube?

Also depends on how many angry people you have on Ignore.

Just put this ovoid plate into the lab fridge. Making slants from it next week when my autoclave vials arrive.  It has been a fun culture to work with.

How much is an autoclave? Where? What?

What are the advantages over a PC? (probably many but I don't know)

Nah, I have autoclave-sturdy vials ordered to make slants from cultures I want to store. Like what you would use in a rotovap, but with lids and tubes that withstand the high temps of an autoclave. I’m just running a standard wet PC for sterilization.

Got a link to the slant tek you're using? I've got an x7x clone I love, want to save it, and have some vials.

No tek, just searched autoclavable rotovap vials after seeing something about it around here.

Found  “CynKen 20pcs 2ml Graduated Plastic Cryovial Cryogenic Vial Tube Self Standing with Cap, on amzon.  I plan to just pour with gsa and a toothpick, let stiffen at an angle, and use sterile tweezers to transfer to. Make sure it jumps off and then store in the fridge.

I’m also going to try and store dried colonized grains, and pieces of mycelium in sterile water in those vials.

In water? or with a little water? Maybe water and a stirring stick, in case it keeps growing.

Someone was talking about storing bits of colonized grain somewhere on here a while back but I don't recall the details.

The sterile water storage method is supposed to only use mycelium. It's been brought up here or in another thread very recently and I believe A.K.A. linked to the paper where it was described. They scraped aerial mycelium, put some distilled water over it and sucked it back up.

The main point of the method is to completely avoid putting any nutrients into the water so the myc goes dormant because it's deprived of nutrients instead of being exposed to low temps.

Lol if you put dry grains in water they won't stay dry for long hahah.

If you put myc in temps below 50 it will probably go dormant no matter the moisture content .

The nutrients have nothing to do with it going dormant.

Storing myc in water, LI, is primarily good so the myc doesn't get dehydrated. You should still refrigerate LI for storage, as temp swings and high temps can be detrimental, also you are most likely allowing it to continue to"age" and use whatever nutrients it may have stored, leading to scenesence.

I used to be the biggest advocate for LI for lonflg term storage, but a concerned for that imo, if you don't have a appropriate fridge, is it freezing, if anywhere in your fridge gets down to freezing, and God help you have LI there, it will probably die ide figure.

Would be cool to see if frozen myc could be easily revived, almost can't believe someone hasn't done this yet.




With everyone drying grains and stuff, I'm wondering if the nucleus can be regenerated after drying, freezing, 160+ temps.
Not talking good growth or anything beyond that, simply revival, or reawakening.

The water method I was talking about used room temp storage and claimed to be able to store cultures for 10+ years with no need for maintenance transfers or worrying about sensecence.

The complete absence of nutrients is supposed to slow growth completely.

Pretty sure morelman was doing a freezing test.

And freezing is talked about in one of the mush cult books i have.
