I remember that thread way back in the day. It was epic! I still have my Phellinus Linteus slant from Aloha.

Green agar is an interesting choice 
At first glance I thought it was mold.

Looking great! I've been grabbing cultures out by random, but so far I've got DON, P04,& AM1 on agar.

Not anything exciting. Eight varieties on supplemented HWFP colonizing away in bags, eight more on grain, and a final ten on agar. None of the bags have reached 100% colonization yet, so we have a good wait ahead of us.

I've lost all progress and a lot of bags and grain as well due to a couple of faulty a/c units and some drastic heat issues in the lab/ colonizing room. Doing some remodeling and waiting until cooler temps to start back up on agar.

I have a dozen sawdust bags looking like popcorn and starting to brown. I have more colonizing, and some grain jars going. All different varieties. I don’t have them all on grain yet, but almost!

This is a really cool project! How did that original group buy work? I'm a newer cultivator and it's encouraging to see group projects that allow for access to such interesting cultures.

This seems like an amazing thing going on here. I am very new but would love to help out and give some a try if you would have me. I really am enjoying the enthusiasm so many in this field are to spread what they can to keep them going. Thank you for your consideration.

Little update!
Now that we got some cold weather I put six blocks outside to cold shock overnight. Brought them in today and the are soaking. Tomorrow they will get a few slaps and put in the tent.
I lost on block to some contamination. There is about an inch of metabolites in the bottom of the bag, and the block crumbles when touched.
The six that are still going have browned up really nicely.
Two of the blocks have a few fruit in the bag, both LE1 and QUA GU.
The block of 75, the only variety I’ve grown in the past, is quite light and sounds almost hollow.
There are eight more bags that started later. The browning has started, but they’re not quite ready yet. Update and some pics tomorrow!

Nice work! Are you going to try to clone anything, or take prints?

I never tried printing shiitake. I like to harvest before they start dropping spore. I’ll clone anything that looks interesting, but I still have plates of all these cultures.

Six blocks in the tent a few days ago when I unbagged them.

LE1 showing a few pins already.

Qua Gu pinning up, too!

Bad news, two of my blocks have some mold. Could be bad spawn, or a nasty tent. So 75 and DON are moldy just as they start pinning.
Good news, Qua Gu is looking good.

LE1 is looking really nice.

The other two are beginning to pin as well. These are in a tent @ 65 degrees F and 85% RH. I’ll be eating some shiitake tomorrow!
