There should be some restrictions similar to the marketplace. IE: you have to read 25 pages of threads no older than 3 years old. Then and ONLY then should they be allowed to ask for help with their microwaved pf cakes made with popcorn soaked in alkaline water

My bad for posting an agar-related question on an all things agar thread.




What's with all the new rude noobs on here recently?

Did Reddit start charging for membership?



I understand that people get frustrated seeing the same questions pop up every day, but most of the newbie users aren't on here frequently and obviously haven't seen those same questions yet. Yeah, everybody should use the search function, but what's the point of a discussion board if people aren't allowed to post? If someone posts something and you think it's not worth your time to respond, just ignore it. It's so easy. No need to be an ass.



I wasn't any dickier to him than he was to  someone helping him with a link that answers his question.

And I have seen more than the usual amount of pushy people who've come on here in the past 2 months or so.

I also took time to give him useful advice. It is in the form of links he'll have to follow and read.

Yes, a very good advanced search if you do it right. I posted instructions a few posts back, but here it is again:

I never post on this site because I ALWAYS find the answers I need via the search. I’ve searched multiple times every single day for the past several months. So I don’t need any education on how to use it.

I thought maybe there was a funny story behind the name tiger drop, and maybe it could make for an interesting discussion. I had never seen the question asked. So yeah, when someone says “I found the answer in less than a minute using TFSE”, and then a second person responds with a link to search results for “tiger drop” (both very dickish responses), I got a little ticked and threw some shade back.

I’m embarrassed that my dumb question has now derailed this thread and I wish the mods would just delete it and all of the responses.

Relating to the topic of getting annoyed with the newbies...

I'm a NOOB, by every sense of the word! I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who has been kind enough to pause and answer my redundant and/or repetitive post. I know y'all have probably seen the same questions asked a million times. I wish I had more time for reading all the post, and research in general for mycology knowledge, but between work, family, etc... time is one thing I don't have... It's invaluable.

I think all of you have been wonderful, kind and extremely helpful. I love the challenges of my new hobby, but I really like to have a reason to converse with people from different parts of the country/world!

No response needed, Just a thank you note for all the patience and kind words from everyone on this site... this thread. YOU are greatly appreciated, and very much needed, and Just like time, YOUR knowledge is invaluable as well!

Nah don't worry about it, just move on. I got into a pissing match with someone the other day and felt stupid about it afterwards. Life and the thread moved on :shrug:

I've posted this a few times but I love how clean this germ plate was! There, back on track :wink:

Hey Phronster, just lighten up. :lol: you got your discussion!

They told me when I started going to where I stay sober, "If three people in a day call you [me spacebabty] an asshole, go buy toilet paper."

Look how mmany people have pointed out various ways to get along and go along. A pugilistic attitude ain't it.

And you were refering to me, but I newver said "USE the.." I said I USED." You said you did, but never in setting up the question. It took seconds for the ask and for the answer.

I think it;s not cool to be here all that time and not post except when I want something.

So the attempt to take a transfer of myc from a fruiting jar back to agar didn't go that well.





Question for anyone: What's your general work rule on opening a plate with mold?

I've seen someone with years on here say they never open a plate with sporulating mold (turned from white to green/whatever). They said they'll only open a plate with bacteria and maybe mold before sporulation, because sporulating mold can get everywhere and infect your room / house.

I don't know this from experience, I heard it and I'm curious what others have to say.

Let's say I wanted to send little bit of an edible / legal mushroom culture plate to a friend. What's the best way to do it, without sending something bulky like a plate?

Thank you

colonized grain in a dime bag. I've even heard of putting a wedge into a dime bag. I suppose you could probably even swab some mycelium if you knew it was going to be shipped quickly and used immediately. Little <5ml vial of sterile water that you drop a transfer puck into and seal up

Bubble mailers or small flat rate boxes are good.  Just make sure your plates are secure. Boxes get tossed around quite a bit

Edit: just realized you said "not a plate"

Yeah bigfoot got it right

Edit edit: I've also received a plate in a standard envelope. Can't remember if it was standard postage or what, but it worked out fine.

Swabbed an albino riptide fruit and then rolled those swabs in a PEU×Melmak print. 4 plates that were streaked and/or have a swab jabbed in them are showing clean germination and if they remain clean I will use the plates to inoculate jars directly:


I also made several, like the one below, plates by placing transfer wedges taken from two different phenotype germination plates directly on top of each other. Each plate has two small stacks of wedges. I will probably let most of these plates pin out.


And just simply seeing if these two will intermingle meaningfully:
