Noob hits the motherload
    #27762410 - 05/04/22 06:47 AM (2 years, 8 months ago)

Hi,

After bodging together 2 shoebox from MS. I have suckled from the tit of shroomery's collective wisdom. Too late I know.

Proving the resilience of cubes they gave me some fruits. I now would like to start my journey doing things properly. I got very lucky and picked up someone else's collection as they are taking a break.

For a bargain price I picked up a collection of spawn jars and lids, syringes, agar, LME etc. And some pre made stuff.

There are a load of uninoculated slants and tubs with agar. Are these okay to use or should I just throw them out and start fresh?

You could always just re-sterilize them if you're not sure.

Honestly, agar is a bit of a numbers game when you're starting in on it. The best thing to try to do is realize that the stakes are actually very low, and that you'll learn more from going through the motions than you will worrying and over-thinking.

Couldnt hurt to try! Just dont put all your eggs in one basket and make a few transfers from anything youre worried about losing.

Thanks Traven,

So just sterilise and take samples from a mushroom, throw it in these pots and just wait and see. If nothing happens then I've lost teeny amounts of a mushroom. If they are heavily contaminated I can try and clean them up and maybe, just maybe I'll continue being lucky and have some clean mycelium to start a new clean grow.

Thanks Ghost!

I have some fresh mushrooms rearing their heads so I'll have a go at cloning. Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Yeah, sounds to me like a decent place to start!
