Lol..I thought it was funny but Iโ€™m a simpleton. I play pool, shoot things with arrows, and grow mushrooms. Occasionally make bad jokes or hook up with questionable women.

And dude thatโ€™s the situation I always encounter with syringes but whatever you had there is crazy cool looking. Such vivid colors and the green to yellow looks badass on the blue.

Sorry ForeverGreen for kicking your thread off topic a little. I was just preemptively expressing my thoughts about syringes to agar so that if you did end up with a puddle of bacteria you didnโ€™t get disheartened right away thinking you messed something up. Some people get clean myc right off with syringes but I always seem to get something gross I have to fight around.

Someone please correct me if this is awful advice, but if you squirt a little on a piece of clean aluminum foil rather than directly onto the agar, you could wet your loop in the foil puddle and then put it on the agar.




I heard you can squirt into a shot glass (lol) and use that with a loop

Im just gonna buy another bag and buy a bird feeder or something and use the old bag for the birds. I don't save receipts and take it as a lesson. Birds get fed now lol

The tractor supply store also sells oats for $15.. Debating doing just WBS or half jars WBS and other half Oats.

I don't remember what all's been said here but you can prep WBS real quick with no soaking. Check out Fooman's method. Real quick and easy. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/8508523

I've also been trying no prep WBS. It's not quite as clean and nice looking as doing it foomans way (i rinse them before as well) but i have some no prep I nocc'd up 6 days ago with LI and half the jars are 90%, the rest just barely behind them so it definitely works.

The first no prep i filled ball qt jars to the 400ml mark and adding 7-7.5 oz water. Those are the ones that were a lil clumpy but are almost colonized now. I did a batch last night a little under 400ml, I used a leveled off 1 cup scoop and leveled off half cup. Weighing 275g. and 200ml water. They came out pretty sweet with a few small clumps.

If you try no prep you have to shake the shit out of them right out of the PC. And i gave them another shake this morning and one just now.

I've used 2 bags of pride oats and I've got 3 more waiting in the basement. They work like any other oats. Why did people tell you not to use pride oats?

Just something i read. A few people had no luck with oats and linked it to the brand of oats and it was the pride stuff they sell at tractor supply. The more i read the more i see people have a hard time with oats. I sometimes get a headache reading so much on shroomery and for one thing that works for one person, doesn't work for the next. It shows me I need to just grab what i can and get started to figure it out myself. I honestly dont know which direction to go so I'll just do WBS.
Ill grab WBS and saw some whole wheat berries online 50lb for $80 includes shipping. Im gonna grab those this week.

Also my case of 48 wide mouth mason jars just showed up. All i need is monotubs, coir, verm, and gypsum and I'll be set for a while.

$80 for 50 pounds of grain is insane and oats are virtually fool-proof. If someone was having trouble, it wasn't because of the oats.

Would you mind sharing your tek for oats? Im honestly intimidated by oats after hearing such negatives on this forum.

All grains are basically equal, truly. You're reading too much into things. The only possibly tricky part is hydrating them. If you cook them too long they burst and turn to mush.

My tek is simple:
Fill pot with water
Bring to boil
Dump oats in
Adjust heat to medium, maintain a hard boil
Drain/strain after 40 minutes, stirring once halfway though
Load into jars once they're mostly dry
PC

The two main advantages of oats are
1) they don't burst easily
2) they dry quickly

I use my PC as my pot to cook them in. I fill it 80% full then add 10 full dry quarts of oats. That expands to 30 jars of prepared oats.
To dry them I dump the whole PC into a 5 gallon bucket that I've drilled a bunch of tiny holes into the bottom. It's really easy to get a ton of oats done quickly this way.

I bought gypsum and wbs. Grabbing oats now. Im just gonna do both, but only using 4 lbs finch seed for some starter jars with the motive to go full oats. Since wbs has so many inoculation points I'll use that just so i know I get some spores going. On one of my amazon agar plates it looks the tiniest dot of mycelium has started. Here we go boys.

Checked all my plates. Not a single sign of mycelium but at least 15 or so have contams already...

Gonna get ready to make more plates and inoculate some more... Nothing else to do other than prep WBS and oats but im fearing the worst, that these syringes will just contam those too.. Only one way to find out...
