It began with some brf... 1

Hey guys! Hope everyone out there in mushroom land is having a groovy time. I've just started a new project after setting the hobby down for a while and am really excited to share my progress and get some advice from the community!!
I'm probably going to keep this really simple:
Knocked up these BRF jars on 11/4 with a Burma spore syringe. Made the hole to small so was a pain trying to get the needle in and only have one inoculation point on each. Planning on shredding to a shoebox, clone some good pins to agar and lc, then go oats, g2g, and finally umbodified tubs/ shoeboxes ftw
Let me know what you think I'm going to up date this regularly!!
11/26 brf jars half left foil on half took off. Seems the ones with foil are progressing faster but idk. Do either of these look bad at all?

Also curious you think that one little led is helping at all? Haven't finished my lights yet in my room and I figured this little guy 24/7 can't hurt right?

Looking good! Light is beneficial to mycelium at all stages, I set my timer 12/12 and never touch it start to finish. I don't think the foil is doing you any good except restricting FAE (maybe?)
I agree, unmodified tubs/shoeboxes FTW! Keep us updated!

Outta 12 only 4 survived. Cased remaining with straight coir using Bods coir prep tek on 12-12. 
Found that I needed to mist them every other day at first then I started misting everyday starting 12-18 but much lighter. Here they are now.

 Probably should have misted a little more my rooms pretty dry but hey look what I got!!
 Side pins are still pins, right?!
Once I get some poking through I'll put to agar and I got a couple LC'S to try as well!!

Whoa..
What's happening here?
Are you letting those fruit in the jars instead of birthing them and is that a layer of coir on top? I just became very confused.
Whatcha got goin on here?

This is the tek I was following

I used coir instead of verm and probably made it to thick

Was going to go to shoeboxes but now I'm just going to top fruit to get some material to clone and go from there!

don't put pins into lc. take all your clone samples to agar, then from agar to lc.
then test your lc again on agar before blasting it all over the place.

Yeah I've herd a lot of people dis the whole pin to lc thing what about this:
Fill syringe with a few CCS of water and PC
Take pin/fruit and (in sab) rip in half and poke thru a center piece making sure to not come in contact with the outside
Squirt contents into lc

Clone to agar not to lc. Lc needs to be done right to be reliable

  It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn I'm tired do me a favor

Good advice I abandoned the lc for now and decided to put 3 pins to agar. I'll transfer a few times then I'll do the lc. As for the cakes I took them out and put them in a dubbed shoebox see if anything comes of that.

Rocked it this weekend. Made 20 dishes and made 3rd gen transfer from Burma clone. Also dropped piece of agar to grain for 8qt jars. And last but not least, started 4 lc( first time trying lc!!). This has been an intense project. My wife gave birth to our 5th child 2 weeks ago. I made some spore prints the day before she gave birth. Maybe someday I'll give him those spores and he'll grow them out!!

Nice work! Looks and nice and healthy.
Ive made the "too small a hole" mistake. Very frustrating when trying inoculate and simply cannot. Now I make sure my holes are oversized slightly.

-Have 2 stacks of clean plates fully colonized
Could you guys take a look at these and let me know what you think? Full disclosure, either i used to much lc or made my gain to wet.
**Burma lc to grain with accompanied test plate inoculated 1-25**
