I dont think it's actually against the rules to post a FB link but I think its risky behavior that should be discouraged. Hope I didn't upset anybody


--------------------
Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

You did... my butt really hurts. But seriously thats cool, I thought it was pretty common considering there's a few fb groups like the "order of kwisatz" and "tat syndicate".
Both of which are pretty interesting, if you haven't checked them out. One deals with isolating phenos from an albino teacher strain and the other is to do with strain crossing, single spore germination, and microscopy.

Fuck Facebook and their unholy meta-tracking, data-collecting, fedgov-front orwellian pieces of shit.

Admin should have an auto-delete for any link to that site-- security nightmare.

Bad enough that there's amazon links here that auto-populate trying to sell shit based on the text in the page...

It’ll cover the whole plate and then the mold under it will die off and go straw color yellow/brown.

I usually leave dirty plates like that to watch. It’s weird they either run right over it or won’t go near it but nothing halfway.

If it eats the mold instead of avoiding it does it tell me anything about the strength of this mycelium? Should I go in and transfer form this plate?

I have no idea. I’d only transfer from it if you don’t have any clean plates of that culture.

So I'm gearing up for my first ever agar to agar transfer, but really needing some advice. (I initially posted this as a new thread in mush cultivation but realised that might not be the best thing to do so transferred the bulk of that post here and deleted the thread).

____________________________________________

These dishes were inoculated on 8th July from a wild Psilocybe Subaeruginosa spore print sent to me by a friend. It's fairly cold, at 15C day and night, in the room and SAB where I keep my agar samples so it's been slow growth, hence it's only brought me this far in 2 weeks. For scale, dishes are 60mm variety, standard LME and agar mixture.

Just wondering, of these samples which ones you think are ready to transfer to further agar (if any are ready) and the portions you'd recommend? Or should I wait longer?

I can't see any strong rhizomorphic growth but I think it's definitely in there (see dish 2).

Dish 1

Dish 1 and 5 look quite similar - is this bacteria?

Dish 2

Fairly certain that's a couple blotches of trich at 3 and 4 o'clock, and the picture doesn't show it too clearly but some of the white cloudy growth appears slightly rhizomorphic. Should I attempt a transfer or is it too soon? Worried about the trich taking over this dish.

Dish 3

Seriously fuck all happened in this dish, I don't even know how that can happen, it just developed this odd 'puckered' look all over almost like something wants to grow but just can't quite bring itself to do it :shrug: (we've all been there though, right? :tongue:)

Dish 4

The smaller, solid white blobs seem to be bacteria. But at least on this dish you can actually clearly see the zig-zag of the loop path. Again, too soon to transfer or should I go ahead and transfer something from here? If I had to guess I'd say too soon.

Dish 5

Same as dish 1, kinda evenly spattered all over and I'm guessing contams.

Eager to hear any suggestions! :bow2:

What do you think about the first one?  Do I transfer to 5 new plates just off all the edges on the top 9 through 3pm?

Ok, I'll take a shot. I would want more wedges than are available
In that  specimen. IMHO it looks like only around 6:00 is worthy.
So I'd transfer for a better plate.

Thanks man! I am thinking the same. I have a few better plates but a couple which look like this one. I am still new to agar and was just wondering if anybody yells "contam" :smile:
So the light areas are just weak ass mycelium or what?

How much does the agar recipe matter for getting good quick growth? What should I be adding to my MEA?

Agree on 6oclock rest looks too clear and weak. Also would want to see top down without the backlight

Just used to 20 in a sleeve and pour stacks of 40. So now I gotta deal with 4 packages of plates instead of 2. Quality control a little lacking too. Outside my plate bags look like someone drug them through the lawn. Litteraly. Dirt and even a blade of grass I’ve seen so far.



Crazy. Did you buy a case of them, or were they loose 10 packs?

Personally, I'm a fan of 10 packs, since they're easier to open inside a SAB.
