Selecting a warm weather strain from spores on agar?
    #26724471 - 06/06/20 04:04 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Hey everyone! I'm thinking of getting back into the hobby, but I have one problem: I live in an area where it's usually around 20-30 C even indoors and as you know most gourmets prefer cooler temperatures.

I was thinking if it's possible to get spores of an edible which doesn't usually grow too well in warmer temperatures and select the faster growing sections of mycelium and fruit those? I figure the easiest way to start would be with a species that can stand these temperatures easily (p. djamor) to get my agar work down and then move onto something slightly more challenging, like yellow oysters or enoki.

Is this a viable strategy? I remember reading years ago that going from print to agar isn't usually the best strategy, is this true? Where can I find some videos on working with oysters on agar? I'm pretty sure it's just as simple as setting up some PDA plates, swabbing the spores onto there and picking the most vigorous growth and after a few transfers testing how they fruit, but maybe I'm missing something, especially if I want to get a strain better adapted for warmer temperatures.

You’re on the right track. Some oysters or reishis
Spores to agar>transfer best growth successively until clean> inoculate.

Or just buy a petri dish from someone. I have Amycel 3015 that I have fruited in the 90F range. Read up on the Amycel 3015. It is one of the best strains out there and fruits well in a wide range of temps.
