Looks good. I have some very similar looking PE jars at the moment. Got some PE from Fhat and the myc from that culture is super aggressive.

I haven't been able to make healthy grain spawn.
Plates & grain prep was checked. Even up to the shake things look fine. Just shook a couple of jars to do one more check.
Anything I could be missing? Sometimes a different perspective helps.

How many cultures from agar have you tried? Even pros can be fooled by hidden contams on cultures sometimes. If all your attempts are from one or 2 cultures I'd recommend hitting new plates with spores again and start fresh.

Good idea Smartattack. I'm gonna try another print when time allows. That's the next logical step.
In the meanwhile I just shook a couple of bacterial looking jars. To my surprise, they broke more easily at 100% than 30%.
If it recovers well does it make sense to spawn em. I'm ok with tossing them.

You could also try running a different kind of grain like WBS. Some people just do better with specific grains and the only way to find it is to try different ones.
Have you grown anything yet? Just spawn those babies and get some fruits in your hands

Hey tiptrippy different grains makes sense too. I'm leaning towards wbs or oats.
I haven't spawned anything 3-4 months into this.
I may be going borderline crazy losing my wits lol!
Thanks for getting my back you guys.

I had a huge issue a little less than a year ago. Pitching it all and starting again was the winning ticket.

Really sorry to hear that Smartattack. Do you mean your "master plates"?
I hope you didn't toss jars- lids- tools etc. I don't think I'd recover from tossing "everything"

I've had to do that before as well. It sucks, but it worked and was worth it in the end.

What exactly did you "pitch"? Tools- sab- basically everything you "used" up to that point?

No no. I'm not one of those. Hell I currently grow successfully in tubs that were left growing trich for 2 months. Tubs that looked like they were stuffed with the Grinch's dead body.
I just mean pitching cultures and going back to spore.

Yeh I just did that myself recently, currently on my T2 with some agar to grain all clean and healthy. No more contaminated jars, no more f-ing maggots. It's a bitter pill to swallow but there's no point in fighting an uphill battle with a illogical terrorist.

Noob question again
It seems that experienced cultivators have a checklist to help them identify good spawn.
Majority of times this results in good yield & fruits.
My question is how rare does "good" looking spawn produce low yield or no fruit?

Thats entirely dependent on the strain or culture

So basically are most cultivators basically growing a broad range of cultures and strains to greater their odds in finding what makes them happy?
potent/ high yielding/ novelty/ experimental to name a few?
Thanks Ted!

Yeah you kinda just run a bunch of stuff and keep anything you really like.
Genetics is where yield comes in. Bacterial spawn will just drag down any culture fruiting wise, good or bad.

Thank you Aka!
This makes total sense now. I wish I had known this earlier. Gonna inoculate another print asap.
My prints and agar plates are doing no good sitting in a box lol
I still haven't gotten to spawn anything cause I've been stuck getting bacterial spawn.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
