If it’s trich it’s trich. Because trich happens. But still so frustrating.







Ok I’m back after almost 3 days and this is what I have



Hoping it’s ok.

What do "pans" stand for and why do some people prefer them over cubes?

Panaeolus cyanescens - Pan Cyans. A dung loving mushroom that's generally taken as being more potent than cubes.

There are quite a few relevant Panaeolus we are dealing with,
Pan. cyanescens being the most known one, Pan. bisporus is becoming more popular it seems.
They require maybe a bit more attention and know-how than Cubensis but are well suited to be cultivated indoors aswell.
They do require a casing as far as i know. Have 2 strains on agar but have not yet found the time to work with them.

Thanks both of you! Btw, can one of those be found naturally in western Europe in fields or forests? Might be confusing with another kind.

Panaeolus is the genus, for cubensis the genus is psilocybe.
They have different species like tropicalis, cambodginiensis or the above mentioned.
Different myc appearence, different smell and different growing conditions.
After a trip on pans you most likely won´t return on cubes,
as it´s way clearer, warmer and of more intensity :wink:

Oh damn dude I feel stupid AF. But yeah mine turns out crazy shiny still with activated charcoal as well. I even started added yeast a couple of weeks ago. Same shine.



AC here. You get a reflection from the petri lid right? You need a directional/focused light source that overpowers the ambient light. I use an off-camera flash to the side but you can use a spotlight as well.

Can someone explain this?
I had two distinct growths from this plate (top center), and I transferred the fastest growing myc (8 o'clock)


At first I thought I had a contam on the transfer


A few days later though, I see the same growth pattern as the original plate


Is this because I don't have an isolated strain yet, contam or what?



so many sectors... far from isolate. what do you not understand exactly?



So more than two? Thanks, that answered my question :wink:

Today is 10 days since spawning for my very first bulk grow using an unmodified tub. I had the lid facing down up until today for colonization and just flipped it for FAE.

Looking for any input.

Anyone sun dry their grains post soak / boil? Wondering if there's disadvantages such as excessive moisture loss as opposed to fan drying?

Hey everyone, I would really appreciate some guidance please, I was doing really well not getting contamination, but now nearly every plate I make is riddled with it. Can anyone help me identify what I'm dealing with? They seem to just be little opaque bubbles that never do much except slowly slowly grow. I've had trich and aspergillus and pin molds before which all change color at some point indicating the production of fruiting bodies, but these just sit there and don't do much except start popping up literally everywhere!









I made ~50 plates 4 days ago and I would say 90% have this, with about 75% having a pervasive and overwhelming coverage of the plates to the point I feel like it's not even salvageable. I'm using PDA for my plates, and use ISO to clean my SAB and wash my hands and arms up to elbows and use vinyl gloves and flame sterilize my knife between uses. I'm frustrated and confused.

Got mold an bacteria on those plates. With how high the failure rate is Id guess you didnt properly sterilize your agar. I also cant help but notice none of your plates are wrapped...

Those are bacterial.  For starters, leave some closed blank plates in the sab to see if they develop colonies to rule out your media prep and pouring as vectors.  After they’re ruled out (or confirmed as vectors), run your tools through the pc, ensure proper flame sterilization of blade when making transfers, practice precise, quick but not rushed movements without exposing the medium to open air for extended time/hovering over it, ie., aseptic technique and don’t cough or breathe through the arm holes. 

And as milkboy stated (good eye), wrap those plates in some way.
