 Got bored not having money for stove propane at the time so yesterday morning I prepped 14 WBR half pints and made LI from a decent looking AA+ plate. 3cc each. Prepped on the drier side to accommodate.
  Semilanceata and caerulescens started to jump off on barley a couple days ago when I snapped this. (Those bumps in the caerulescens wedges are just chunks of ghetto BRF, btw).
One fucking plate of Halo left after a sneaky mold got introduced to the other 3 last transfer. Two more transfers and I think I'll drop or LI.

Update:
20 FEB 2021
APE transfers as insurance. My pint of WBS looked sketchy, but I put it to 2 quarts of wheat to see what happens.

Melmac shoeboxes coming along.

killin it with that tray!!
I'm way behind schedule. I've got 9 jars knocked up with PE and just finished knocking up 9 or GT. Going to prep some more grain tonight and get all my varieties going tomorrow.

4 out the 5 pan-cakes are now fully col. The fifth is way behind so I may just toss it. I'll give them a couple of days to consolidate then case and put to fruit!

Spawning to bulk today, looking forward to see what this "Not So TAT" f1 prints brings.

I can never get good pics of spawn, always looks weird but these were broken up at 90% and recovered nicely

My pans are killing me, I'm running 2 cultures but they are so slow on grains, jars keep stalling or just not taking off its frustrating. This is typical of the cultures im using
 Must've nocc'd 8 quarts since Xmas and none of them have gone to bulk 
I haven't ever grown pans all the way through, but from what I read in the pan thread years ago, they don't like being shaken and they prefer to be inoculated to a premixed sub

I only give em a shake when growth stops. A lot of the time they'll recover, expand a bit and then stall again. At which point they get tossed. But I've got 4 jars going atm with 2 different varieties, hopefully one of them will fully colonise.

been having issues with my pans as well, stalled jars. I haven't shaken them though, I'm probably gonna toss them as it's been nearly a month since they were inoculated. I think I'm going to try pints next time because of the low grain to sub ratio and it's less to colonize in the jar. I think the batch of agar I used had some nutrient issues so I'm hoping the most recent transfer looks/performs better. If not I'll probably try from spores again
in other news the one yeti germ plate to make it all the way to spawn has knots, and the T1-3s are all staggered nicely, some T1s colonizing in shoeboxes, T2s almost ready to be spawned and T3s having been recently shaken. The fun part should be coming up soon

The jars got a last shake today. As I said I'm messing with an experimental prep for this known problematic barley and this final shake is what tells me whether the prep did its job fine or bacillus rears its ugly head.
I made important improvements for this prep since I made the jars pictured, so if they don't make the cut for spawning I'll try again with better prepped grain.

Do you usually shake the jars that far along??
At that point it’s usually tough to decide for me unless it’s a very slow or fast culture.

I think that if people made a habit of shaking more often they'd be surprised to see that sometimes their spawn was not as clean as they initially thought. Especially those later shakes, these tell you all you need to know.

Im joking obviously. Shake it like a shake weight! Or shake it like Michael J Fox in a tennis match.
I don't shake as much as I should. Vertigo and all.

Looking good, fellas. All my cult stuff is on hold for probably another month. Getting ready to move to a new house and cult has been pushed to the side. All my grain masters are ready for g2g but that's gonna have to wait. Hopefully not much longer. I miss you guys.

Well, speaking of shaking... Made 5 grain jars and put in agar wedges from that B+ plate I took transfers from. Not expecting any kind of success, just for the practice before I have actual Good Agar to lose. Noted in another thread, did the rinse, soak, boil, and drain according to the teks and everything looked GREAT. Looked exactly like all the perfect pictures in those teks. Then I sterilized for 2.5 hours at 16psi, and the jars came out looking very, very wet. Asked around and was told that isn't really abnormal because of the heat from sterilization, to wait fully overnight for the jars to cool and then evaluate. Sure enough, in the morning jars looked much better. Almost perfect. Emphasis on the almost, apparently.
It's been 3 days and all the agar pieces were beautifully fuzzy with myc jumping off to the surrounding grains all over the place, except 2 naughty children who developed cobweb and went to the compost. Gave the other three a super vigorous shaking, and was disturbed that the grains were EXTREMELY stuck together. I've grown brf cakes with less cohesion at full colonization. But I got the job done, and then I've waited. Just checked the jars and I'm sensing failure. 2 of the jars have gotten really wet looking and after shaking most of the grains are burst and there is a off-whiteish mush juice smeared on the inside of the glass that I've come to associate with bacterial infection in the past. 1 jar looks still maybe ok, the agar is fuzzy again and only see 1 or 2 burst grains.
And this is why I wanted to do a practice run with agar that I wasn't super invested in. I haven't really lost anything at this point.

I shake at 20% and 90% with cubes, the pans I've shaken after they've stalled, they normally recover a bit then stall again but latest jars seem to be holding course.
Spawn my NST(cube) to bulk last night, home stretch now
