Any good isolation tek?

Is there an isolation tek that goes step by step, isolating a strain and then testing each strain? I'd like to see clear pictures of how to pick out sectors.

You literally just pick them you don't know what you have till you grow it. Using agar is one tek. Using agar to grow is a multitude of other teks.
Mycelium grows outwardly in a circle. You pick whatever you think looks best.
You want any agar tek and a look at stros cleaning tek

I've heard that you should isolate every strain and test them otherwise you could miss out on fruiting strains. I'm just worried about missing a fruiting strain because I didn't identify a sector. Does it matter if I miss a sector?

You're overthinking it and over concerned. Non fruiting strains are rare.

Okay that's good to know. Does it matter if I test them in shoeboxes or should I grow them in monotubs?

You can do whatever you want with your cultures

I'm just not sure if the strains grown in a shoebox will be indicative of how they grow in a monotub.

If the environment is right, and the sub to spawn ratio is the same, they'll perform much the same. I'd say you're over thinking it again/still.

That makes sense. I have a tendency to overthink. Better over than under in my opinion

It seems getting a good isolate is a lot of work so I just want to make sure I do it right. You're probably right that I'm overthinking it though.
