All the floating small pieces doesn't look right to me. But with just one picture It not easy to tell.
I wish I could give you a better opinion.
Also It looks to be on the dark side.

It is was actually a shocker cause it was properly sterilized grain soak water knocked up with a clean agar wedge and thrown in the back of the shelf for a couple of weeks.
Either my flowhood sucks, the wedge was hiding a contam, ir those plastic lids are crap.

Plastic lid!
Actually I’ve never used those, thought about it cuz one piece would be nice.
But the cheap media bottle lids got me paranoid. I spin some serious cling wrap around them now.

I like having a plastic bag tent covering my plastic Lid.
The plastic tent has vent holes covered with micropore tape.

Don’t plastic lids get enough ge as they come?? I thought that was why people used them.
I’ve been thinking about doing syringe filters on some of my lids too, they seem convenient.

Looks good to me. I'd use that as a master and make some more liquid cultures.

I could use a culture sample for amending the spawn in my next Planet of apes grow. I think my new culture is going to be too clean and we cant be having that.

Man I just woke up to massive trich on a big PE tub that hadn’t even started knotting yet.
Never had a tub not get to the first flush.
I’m afeared for the rest of them now.

I'm currently doing an experiment to determine if I can make 100% clean LC syringes without needing to test them first. I'll let the LC colonize fully until the mycelial mat on the surface starts to pin (meaning it's Clean) and then I'll just poke a needle through the surface and aspire the LC that's underneath the 'protective layer'. Maybe even use this to inoculate next generation LC and repeat the process to determine that the LC is still clean. I have 6 LCs almost fully colonized right now. 5 of them look clean so far but in one of them mycelial growth has halted and the rye water has gone turbid.

Fo who, I'll probably swirl the LC's for the last time tomorrow and then let them rest until they pin. I'll make a thread and post the results. And btw the cakes I'm fruiting now that we're nocced with LC are the foret time I'm using LC for a grow and so far Im really enjoying LC's. Before that I've only cultivated them for the sake of the broth for experiments and observations.
