Reishi not taking to Agar
    #28467057 - 09/12/23 10:27 PM (4 months, 13 days ago)

Hello team, So I bought a reishi LC from the trusted vendor list. The day I got it I made some fresh agar plates and dropped 2-3 drops on about 10 different plates to transfer them. only 3 drops on one of ten plates produced mycelium. There was bacterial contamination on these plates from the LC.

I took cuts of it and transferred them to new agar, but it's been about 15 days and there is barely any growth on these plates. I work with a laminar flow hood and have no sign of containment from the cuts. I never cultivated Reishi before, but something feels like it's going wrong.

I use PDA, same recipe for Lions Mane and cubes. The cubes eat up the whole plate in 5-7 days. the Lions Mane will take about 14-18 days to eat the plate. But these reishi just refuse to grow at all.

I was wondering if anyone had tips for reishi growth on agar. I was thinking about getting another LC of it from different vendor to see if that would change anything but wanted to consult everyone else hear first.

Thanks people!
