Yes, burying cakes looks like a feasible alternative to fruiting in a water tub or shredding to bulk.

I only tried it as an emergency fruiting for this one cake but it looks very good for now.

Think i'll dig deeper into burying stuff. :smile:

My pressure cooked plastic agar dishes with holes and micropore tape have been sitting on my shelf for months. Should I wipe them down with iso before opening for a transfer? Should I not iso the micropore tape?

I had a 100% no-contam rate with plates that were transferred straight out of the pressure cooker, but my last transfer batch with agar plates off the shelf ALL contammed with scattered blue or white splotches.

Also my crappy plates take a lot of effort and time to open because the lid is basically stuck on. This worries me with regard to disturbing the contam on the agar surface and spreading it into the SAB air. Should I not even bother transferring from contammed plates, or does the contam really stay stuck to the surface?

Yeah, Pasty buries whole cakes in tubs using coir.

Yeah honestly you can bury brf cakes and get good results.
The tubs just wont get fully colonized and you'll have coir left over on the edges that isn't used.
I've buried multiple brf cakes whole in a bigger tub which was a fun little experiment.

I’ve been growing P. Natalensis. Most of them look great and perfectly normal! A single tub in the room developed a green spot and dropped spores early so I just harvested what was on it and tossed it.

These shoeboxes don’t appear to have any contam, but there’s this weird growth on some of the mushrooms. 2 separate shoeboxes have mushrooms wit this brain-like growth on them. Is this contam or is this just a mutation similar to enigma? All of these Nats came from LC.

It looks like that can be caused by contact with petroleum-based cleaners, the only cleaner these would have possibly been exposed to is 70% isopropyl alcohol. Doesn’t mean that’s not what it is, though!

So do you think these guys are still safe? I was worried since a separate tub got trich, but even those fruits should still be fine, yeah?

If its a rosecomb mutation its fine and safe. Would wait for others input.

Rosecomb can form from too wet of a casing layer, or from bacterial contam according to Bod.

That’s the thing, I’ve only ever used 70% isopropyl alcohol to clean the shoeboxes or anything around them or the room. I actually don’t think I even have any petroleum based cleaners because I have birds, so I don’t keep aerosols or harsh chemicals around since they can die easily from inhaling even the smallest amounts of certain chemicals.

That makes more sense. They lids look pretty wet, so that may be the case. I also had a PE cake that was a little bacterial, but that was moved away from the P. Nats a while ago. But doesn’t mean I didn’t get a little bacteria in these, too.

Btw the bacterial PE cake ended up being blobs, and once I harvested them, I got a 2nd flush of much more normal looking blobs without signs of bacteria, and now the third flush is starting and it looks like normal PE so far!

PE's need a thick compressed top layer to prevent blobbing :smile:

Nah that second pic is pretty cool, I'd grow that shit out and see what it does.
