HOWEVER I just got huge a wave of excitement for this grow/thread after reading Gypsy's post about the spirit of LAGM in regards to the start time and what not, it just really pumped me up, anyone else super excited??

I'm stoked. Lots of people taking part in this and you can really see the enthusiasm. Lots of cool stuff about to happen here.

Yea this shit is slow. If all goes as planned I'll probably have spawn ready to use within a month or less, but these PE genetics have shown to be hella slow (more than a month to start pinning) and now temps have dropped a lot here. I'd say 75-80 days to see fruits, give or take and that's being fast.

GypsyBastard said: Someone had asked me about starting early in a message because they had just started a variant before seeing the LAGM thread. This is the response I have to really most questions of the nature.
" All starting at the same time and starting from spores really are the only two "rules" I think they have previously held but there is also nothing at stake here other than the community and knowledge. I would say start some on the first and just go ahead and include the (early variant) in your log as well. If there do end up being any prizes or contests the I would say the (early variant) would be out for those but still plenty to contribute to the log and community."
Just to elaborate a little bit. I am trying to approach this not as my rules but the rules of the spirit of LAGM in general. The spirit of this, as I see and understand it, is about community and shared experiences and critical mass of minds and knowledge so that all involved both gain and contribute to create greater minds and greater knowledge for all involved.
As such, I have a hard time saying anyone be excluded from that over a technicality. The thread loses and the member loses. However.... I almost feel it more important to consider the psychological effects of the sooner on the community. Part of the thrill of anything co-op event like this is, as Inthepit mentioned, the flood of share experiences. 01/01/2021-01/05/2021 is going to be a massive flood of spores and plates and sterile teks. Then waiting. Then the next step but these steps will be shared, with 10s of people doing each part almost simultaneously. It takes away for that to have those one or two people post fruits and fruiting teks with everyone else is just going to grain.
This is about knowledge and more info is a plus, but not so at the cost of diminishing the experience. If you have already started and have more spores, I strongly encourage starting more no sooner than 00:00.01 01\01\2021 your local time. If you haven't started yet, I ask that you wait and start with the thread. I totally get many may be doing other things or in no mindset for lab work at that time; no worries. I may have to start mine in the morning. It makes not real difference but in the spirit of LAGM, I will start a few hours late rather than a few hours early.
With that being said, enough rules talk grab some spores, grab some agar, and let's grow some things and learn some things!!!!

I bet with fresh spores and a small lc you could be spawning a tub pretty quickly. My first run with whytegold I got pretty lucky and had a 5 day old lc run a quart in 5 days. It was a clone culture but Iβve had fresh spores germ in a day a couple times.
Iβll definitely try it this time and see if I can get an lc going off a three day old spore plate 
I wouldnβt get too concerned with start time, last year some people didnβt streak a plate for six weeks. And then we just kept adding on to keep it going. Lol last years was right when I discovered I could just ask for spores and started adding new ones that came in the mail every week.

Yea exactly aka, that's the plan, fresh spores and if I see the plate looks healthy and strong like they did for my last growlog I'll make a small-ish LC out of the germ plate no fucks given.
5 days for a quart jar? Damn that's fast. My record is 6 days from LC and it was summer so temps helped a lot.

I feel bad asking for spores. If someone offers, great but I feel I need to get some experience under my belt first. The yeti and avery's that I entered were given to me and if all goes well, I'll ask around for some APE. Been thinking about it a lot lately. It's calling my name.

I had some shitty luck with APE swabs in the past, I could only grow reverts. To be fair the reverts looked awesome and yielded very well so it was a lot of fun after all. If you live in the USA I'd def buy an APE syringe from SW, that's your safest bet. They carefully select the fruits to make their syringes to ensure that they only take albino spores. It so happens that albino fruits may produce non-albino spores and that's why there's a good chance you may grow reverts out of a swab.

I noticed Tiger had the only other non-active species. I was planning on doing a grocery store mushroom, Pholiota adiposa. I could switch to A. bisporus if others want to jump in. Might be interesting.

Very good to know. I was two seconds away from grabbing a syringe from them last night and backed out at the last minute. Is growing APE different than growing other cubes?

They crave more water and FAE, but that's about it. They'll grow happily with just a top layer of coir at spawning. Being a slow fruiter the only thing you can do until they fruit is make sure they have good conditions.

That's pretty straight forward. Thanks for the advice. I'll go ahead and grab a syringe or two.
