No, you usually don't wait for pins to show on grain. After they grain is fully colonized, you "can" wait up to a week. It happens sometimes that some premature pins show on grain if you wait a little bit longer, but you are not aiming for pins to show on grain. (Am I making sense here?^^ just woke up)

The words make sense, i can read them.

Can't comment on the validity though. :cool:

Makes sense, just wait like 5-7 days to make sure there's no uncolonized pockets in there. I'll probably wait 5 days for my ultra quick jar (it's a 1/4 pint and was quite quick so I feel that's enough time), the full week for the one that's lagging 2 days behind (different variety), and definitely the full week for my bags regardless.

Thanks

~Agar~ 1000mL water = 1000g water. use ~1% agar...1% of 1000g is 10g.  For cubes, use between 1-2% nutes (10-20g). For pans use 0.5% nutes (5g).

    :whathesaid:

I've had (healthy) grain jars sit fully colonized for weeks and weeks without pins popping up. You can't expect grain jars to pin in my experience. I think it's got something to do with the bacteria that's often present in PF tek jars :shrug:

Man my LI jars take the longest time to take off.. I think I try to stretch it too far.

I have some T1 in 60mm petris I want to put to grain. Now these are pretty small, could I just dump the whole thing in a jar or should I cut a circle around the edge and dump only the core?

Is it really that risky to take the agar that has been touching the edge, even if it's not colonized? Wouldn't contaminates have appeared by now (6 days old)?.

I personally would cut it into 4 pieces and dump those into the jar.

That's exactly what I'm thinking of doing, I just don't really know whether putting the edge in the jar is a no-no.

To be honest, I don't fully understand why the edge of the agar is considered more dangerous than the rest. How can it harbor invisible contaminates?

Or is it the edge of the actual plate,I mean the actual wall, that could have hidden contaminates?

:confused:

Quick question: Is whole plin fruiting considered a true monoculture grow? I'm getting very inconsistent, MS looking pin formation and fruiting from my plin-to-grain's and I though maybe I'm fucking something up as usual, or is it a thing with plin fruiting?

Is there any correlation between "excessive" overlay/tomentose mycelium and pinning/fruiting? I'm looking at this tub and it seems like the substrate that didn't show as much initial mycelium growth (2nd pic, right side, where the cluster is) and the areas of less mycelium overlay is producing pins or fruit more quickly, as opposed to the areas with heavier mycelium growth that look "fluffy" (3rd pic, left/upper side). Anything I should be doing?

From my experience when I've had plates that've been sitting around a while, every now & then they get bacterial spots on the edges. I suppose it's the weak spot of a plate.

Why risk it? I'd just take what you can see it clean mycelium for peace of mind.
