How long after S2B (1:4 ratio) with 1" compacted casing (p9) should I expect to see colonization? After 10 days I am yet to see anything, should I be worried?

I wouldn’t be worried. That’s a fairly high ratio and good thick top layer that will take a while to colonize. Should be seeing something popping through the top soon though.

It does look a little bit weird and seems like its growing upright and a little wisp. I have more spore syringes so I might just try making more.

Thanks!

As long as I’m here… Is this the dreaded Mycogone? Some other contaminant/stressor? Or just some funky blobby growth?

(This is my first attempt: GT spore syringe—>PF Tek jars—> spawned to shoebox per “ShaperDreaming” Tek.)









Can anyone else weigh in on the heath of my shoebox? I’m no longer suspecting Mycogone (mostly based on Bod’s post on the subject), but it does seem like maybe some bacterial contamination, especially in that area/strip of coit the mycelium seems to be avoiding. It smells like mushrooms - not sour or funky.

So hit me with your honest opinion. I’ve got other things going (agar, grain jars, etc) so at least I don’t have my eggs in one basket here.🤣

Can someone with PE variety experience recommend how I should be spawning my Melmac Monster jars please? First time.

Higher spawn ratio & 1.5" psuedo-casing sound ok?

I'm aware I'm spamming this thread a bit today but I'll do a giveaway this week as a thanks :stoned: :kiss:

Sounds good, I've always run melmac the same as other cubes.

Can anybody suggest a good site to get some cube LC? I used Myco in the past, but now they don't take straight CC payments. They require you to use something called Zelle. I've looked at all the Shroomery sponsors, but they don't have what I want/need. The best I can find is spore syringes. I'd rather have LC if possible. The more sites I can get the better so I can shop around. Looking for GT LC.

Thanks.

We aren’t supposed to discuss vendors by name. They don’t want their microscopy supplies mentioned around these parts. 😉

Check the trusted vendors.

Beyond that the rules disallow us from suggesting anyone.

Use the marketplace. Last time I payed for spores or any form of culture it was bunk or very little quantity. Was better off starting from (free) spores

I am absolutely certain that one of the vendors currently has GT LC.

Curious, does the edges peeling away from the tote mean it's too dry like a weed plant? Is there a way to give the proper moisture if it's too dry, I have been spraying H2O, but I don't think that's enough
Was thinking of pouring in water and then pouring it out, like in bodhisatvas "harvesting" tek, even though they're not all ready, just to get it saturated to fc.
Thanx.

Bottom water by pouring some water down the sides and waiting for it to absorb, add more if needed but don't saturate the substrate.

It is a natural part of the process, as the mushrooms use the water in the substrate it shrinks.

Would a PM be allowed? If so feel free to drop me one. That goes for anybody. I will not reply back unless the person says I can.

I plan to make plenty of LC from what I get, but I have to start somewhere. I would love to use the market plce however I don't have an address that I feel safe to share with others. I really don't want to set up a P.O. box just for a couple prints, or LC syringes. Drop a PM if you have another option for me.

First monotub attempt (ez dial), spawned six days ago, rye to coir with a bit of verm, 1:4 ratio, no top layer. Question: As you can see in the picture, many of the exposed grains have not regrown myc around the exposed part of the surface - is this okay? Cheers!

Do you have pictures of spawn? If those grains don't fluff up in the next 72 hours there's probably some bacteria riding along but the current look of the tub over all makes me think you're going to get fruits.

What's this sandy thing in my popcorn jar? Definitely a toss, just curious what it could be. It showed up after first break and shake at 20%.

Thanks for your reply! No spawn picture alas. Will see what happens over the next three days then. Fingers crossed! So far as I can tell all of these grains have myc branching out from underneath them, which is a good sign I guess!?
