You dudes forgot the Capri Sun.

I love LC and avoided them for so long, but I found that as long as I followed Shroomery Canon they were more user friendly than I expected.  It's either clean or it isn't, never spores to broth, agar is a must, etc.

Pic tax, my first tamps on my first muda bottles with one of my first LC's...

b travern: im dying hahahahahaha you could not have put that any more perfectly. all these elitists here gate keeping by helping people get reliably clean spawnโ€ฆ makes me sick theyโ€™d even suggest a jar is bacterial. also why are all my tubs triching out?


seldom seen: those tamps are beautiful man!! iโ€™ve got a jar going & would love a flush even half as good when i spawn it. what sub did you run them on?

who doesnโ€™t prefer liquid culture? 
One thing to check is who is saying what.  I try to listen to who produces, and consider time/cost/effort and what you have available to work with.

Thank you kindly hazyhorse!  Those were 1 part coir 1 part rgs and I bdought them to field capacity with the rgs soak water.  There may be a little brf in there, I was trying to do my best Muda impression and just threw in whatever I had on hand, hence the ambiguity :lol:

i agree. anyone worth their salt can at least acknowledge the viability/use of a good method even if they donโ€™t really use it themselves.


seldom: ambiguity aside, it clearly worked!! glad to see them perform so well on just coir. iโ€™ll be doing about the same when i spawn my jar. itโ€™s always fun to throw something together & have it work so well

I decided not to click on this thread for a day or so because it was going nowhere fast...
when I finally checked back in on it today, it pretty much ended up where I thought it would.. but I was delightfully  entertained nonetheless.

Hazyhorse, b travern :lol: thanks for the laughs :thumbup:

i agree with the above posts, itโ€™s less that people hate LC here (i would even say most people see it as an excellent way to expand spawn) but more that noobs shooting spores directly into LC are begging for contamination issues




I second this, and I prefer LC.  I'm a small scale gourmet grower and presently only use about 3-4 quarts of spawn a week.

In my experience so far LC is simple, reliable, contamination resistant and extremely fault tolerant once you have once going.

Also, you can ABSOLUTELY skip agar...  Just clone directly to LC Just like you would clone to agar.  Excise a clean piece of tissue from the fruit body and drop it in your LC solution.  I have about an 80% contamination free success rate using this method.

Also, I see absolutely nothing wrong with testing your LC by making spawn with it and growing it out.  If it works and produces satisfying results it's safe to call it good!




20% is completely unacceptable.
