Get a small piece of paper towel with your donor plate unwrapped.

Attach the leur lock needle. Slowly push down the plunge over the PAPER TOWEL and let the first bit shoot out.

The following very light pressure will allow a single drop to come out because you have already got rid of the pressure in the syringe onto the paper towel.

If you really want to practice get an empty syringe and experiment with water.

I don’t use syringes any more. I use it to squirt sterile water onto the spore print and suck it back up with the spores.

Just push the barrel, so a drop forms at the needle tip.
Release it on the agar then.

Another tip is using the index finger as a break,
while pushing the plunger.

My little dehydrator is maxed out and will be running for a couple days at this rate.

If I were to cut an appropriate sized hole in a plastic container (Bucket? Tote?) to expand that mf’er and fashion some trays for it - would there be any noticeable difference in run time? Or is 24hrs still the golden standard

One guy here just chucks them in the bucket with no additional separation and apparently it works fine? Anyone try this?


https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/28218645#28218645


One(maybe more) of the trusted vendors sells additional trays that can be added to many common dehydrators.  You can do up to six trays, according to the manufacturer.  I've also put my dehydrator on a bucket and just let it run.  The mushrooms tend to stick together, but it works.

No, much easier. Closer to cubensis

WBS needs a good wash. Some brands are coated with an oily vitamin mix that can cause clumping. I wash mine maybe 5 or 6 times and I’ll put a drop or two of gentle soap in there to lift it all off. Out of six jars I still usually get one or two with a gumball sized clump in it. Avoid the brands with corn. Sunflowers aren’t that bad, but if you want to get rid of them they will float and you can simply pour or scoop them off.

As per smellys advise - WBS comes filthy, wash that shit thoroughly.

The small grains will get everywhere. If prepping more than a mesh strainer can handle, get yourself a piece of window screen and build one for over your sink.

Mixes with corn will be stickier, sunflowers will largely float and get poured off while rinsing

Less is more when it comes to heat. Boil water, turn off heat, then dump in rinsed/soaked grain. Or steep in hot/not boiling water until satisfied

Either way I like to briefly submerge in boiling water at the very end and lay it out flat so that the surface moisture steams off quickly on the strainer 

Extra water in the jars will get absorbed and hydrate the grain further during sterilizing. Some teks account for this, but I don’t. YMMV

Is it possible to have increased contam rates if I don’t clean out my Petri dishes at all( with soap or water that is), dump agar in them, and then run them through the PC for 25-30 mins @ 15 PSI with 15-20 min venting?


Yes, the biofilm that accumulates is harder to penetrate. And any residual biology will need to be elimante therefore increasing time needed for effective sterilization. There is also the matter of exudates that are heat stable and can remain post pc cycle

Likely since those times are already padded you’ll be fine, and your dishes probably arent caked on with biofilm, but you are 100% theoretically reducing your chances of successful axenic cultures.  In practice :shrug: why waste Weeks over skippin minutes of workz.

Thank you for the answer! Perhaps I’ll try cleaning them with soapy water again as my no pours have been getting quite a bit on contamination. This could be due to poor practices and all the condensation has well though.

Yes, but it would require high level breeding techniques and microscopy to confirm.. ghetto crossing/spore mixing would be unlikely to succeed.

Monokaryons would likely breed, especially with something added to the agar weaken the cell walls
