Back to LAGM stuff!!

Everything is progressing as expected... not rushing anything on any of these... still haven't gotten any germination on the Gyms... still got my fingers crossed tho!

Ok so not really LAGM but you are all my pals so I'm gonna share. Today I harvested my first fruits in almost a year. They are immature as they were from a cake that started fruiting in the jar so I picked them when I birthed it but still. So excited to finally be picking fruits again. I missed that smell so much.
Also, just because I won't shut up about it, here's a quick video of the vacuum hydration tek. Gathering data now so update will come to the journal soon. (plus some extra jazzy tunes. no charge)

Did you not rinse it off at all before the dunk?

Myc grew through part of the verm layer. What doesn't rinse off, I don't pull off.

I totally molested mine and gave a thorough rubbing under the faucet. Was OCD about any residual molds or bacteria hanging about on my verm layer...

 Hats off to ye m8
Agreed. I spent a while just reading teks and memorizing things. I probably read a handful of the same teks every day for weeks just to have it in my head. I wanted to be a part of the community so bad but I hadn't actually started doing anything with the knowledge that I was learning except hang out in the getting start area and link teks to people's questions. If it weren't for you guys, I wouldn't be doing shit. It's odd because even though I've never seen any of you guys face to face and if I did, I would probably freeze up because of social anxiety bull shit but I do consider you all to be not only my mentors but also my friends. I know that word is thrown around loosely and it sounds corny but I truly do have a passion for this hobby and you guys are the only people that share that passion. The only people I can exchange progress with and actually have fun with about it.

I used to be like that with everything about mush cult. But now, fuck I don't wear gloves with birthing cakes. I feel like they're in open air, dunking in non-sterile water, and (should be) fully colonized. Whatever happens at this point happens. All I can do is give them the best conditions to do their thing in the time they have. I mean I'm not like licking my fingers and then playing with these things but not overly cautious either.

Inoculated plate 7.
Made transfers to plate 8:

I had my first harvests over the last few days, so I've been making a few GT prints. Two from yesterday turned out decent:

I used one of the light ones to inoculate a plate. Hopefully it won't require nearly the amount of cleanup of the B+ syringe.

Why did you take transfers from spots that are showing bacteria colonies?

RustyWhyte 8 plates swabbed from a print.
1/1/21

Here is one of my RW plates. They germinated around 5 days after swiping with a swab. Gonna make some transfers this weekend.
1/8/21

My plan is to go to t3 before transfering to lc. From lc to 1/4 pint rice jars slurried to 3 qt popcorn bags. I am going to go with a 1:3 spawn to sub ratio with 1 qt of coir as a top layer.
I made my RW T1's on 1/9. Since these transfers recovered quickly and are looking nice, I will only take these to T2 before going to lc.

These are two of my rustywhyte t1 plates.

I am tempted to go to lc from here but on the otherhand I feel a little apprehensive. I was looking to see if any would go rhizo and then make one more transfer from there but they are all pretty tomentose. The plates look healthy and I do feel confident in my handy work so I will probably make a decision by tomorrow.

1/15/21 Today was an interesting day. While my BRF pucks were in the PC I decided to give my plates one last look before tossing them after sitting blank for 14 days. The one APE plate I had that germinated has sprouted a tiny spec of myc in another spot and one of my PE plates finally germinated!! I need my jewelers loop to see it, but it's there! Still waiting on GT, but I think these BRF cakes will do the trick. Anyway, I inoculated the BRF cakes (3 GT, 3 PE and 1 APE), took 8 T-1 transfers off my APE plate and did a couple transfers for a non LAGM project. Busy day and it felt good!
Shout out to d3monic for his agar TEK...absolute fucking GLASS!

Finally had something to update my OP with today. Everyone's lookin good, and WAY ahead of me lol. Slow and steady, though. Right? Cheers everyone

From spore.
Cubensis
Varieties; albino melmak (pearly gates) and Black Cap (tat variant)
January 1
Two swabs, 9 plates.


Agar: standard MEA agar. I ran it a little softer to help with spore germination. It’s worked well for the in the past for germinating stubborn spores, and the Black Caps are definitely stubborn and few and far between. *9 grams agar, ten grams LME, 500ml water.
Inoculating: I know folks like to swipe and stuff. I hate it. It’s inefficient and rarely produces good results for me. What has worked, it taking my scalpel, and cutting a small triangle out of 1/4 of the swab. Then using my tool to gently removed that portion from the swab. As you pull it away, it begins to shred the fibers, and become a little fibrous ball. I then take that and push it INTO the agar. Leaving half to a third sticking out. Using this in the past, I’ve elongated contam germination, and give my mycelium a head start. Gives me ample time to get CLEAN growth transferred and away from initial inoculation transfer.
Outside of that, just standard stuff so far.
Bonus pics of a nice ghost plate pin, and sneak peak of the rest of the work from yesterday


Day 6

Germination on the Black Cap. Went ahead and transferred from the plate with the most growth, left the other 3 to grow out a bit. I like to take a couple plates and make sure they are secure and clean, in case something bad happens and I lost plates. Maybe a bad agar run or something. Never happens, just a precaution.
Albino melmak does have growth, but also slightly bacterial. Going to let it run out a bit and see. Definitely pull something off them though.
January 15th
Germination occurred on every plate. Ended up taking some early myc off the initial transfers just in case something popped up because swab Took a couple T2 of black cap, and seeing some promising growth on T1 across the board. I’ll probably take them to grain fairly early, as this isn’t even close to stabilized, the black cap.

Updated. These should be going to grain soon. Maybe end of the weekend. Screw it.

Are you using the D3 agar recipe for these plates? They look lovely.
I might start adding food coloring, I wonder which color is best to see all of the various contams that show up on plates.
