Absolutely! As long as agar is involved then you're good!

Agar question... so say you prep a whole sleeve, and use some of them right away for the initial inoculation. That way you have some ready for the first set of transfers. Do these need to be stored in refrigeration or are they fine just being wrapped in parafilm/clingwrap?
Also, how many plates do you recommend total for inoculation and all the transfers? I know it'll vary since you could be clean after one set of transfers or it could take 6.

Want to make it interesting? First to have open cap fruit, etc? Largest yield on a shoebox? I'll put up 5 prints/swabs for anyone with the fastest open cap fruit that came from spores set to agar on 1/1/20. Full disclosure my 1st grow 2 years ago that I'm trying to repeat was smoking fast.

So glad somebody linked this in the cultivation discussion thread. coming up on my one-year mark and this is the perfect way to celebrate what I have learned. Thanks for putting this together. I can't wait! (but I will, because I can not yet traverse the fourth dimension)
Quick question though. I've already commented on the sign-up thread, but was curious if we are limited to one variant?

You can grow as many varieties species as you like as long as yoyre starting from spores and you're down to document the process with us!
Last time was a blast I'm excited!!

Excellent, thanks for the reply. Will likely be doing only the GT that I post in the main thread but wanted to check and be sure. I keep a handwritten log\teks book that I've been meaning to transcribe on to here for my journal. This should motivate me more to do so.
Also, I know I'm way late on this, but just noticed your loc, CBK. Pure poetry.

Thanks it's actually the title of a hit song from an iconic Canadian band. (Lead singer IS actually a poet) A bit of a hint at my location or at least country if you're in the know and somehow end up putting those pieces together

Thankyou for your reply.
- I can't start till mid January
I don't want to waist people's time with nooby fumbling I do have a print from the mass giveaway Pacific Exotic Spora Amazonian, PESA though, (can I say who sent it?) i guess that's all my excuses Oh, and my last (first) turned into a "biohazard" -Mushboy My Biohazard! OMG!
I suppose I could make a nice counterpoint to experienced growers like you CBK or Randolf, eatyualive, Mushboy, et all! LOL Thanks
