Isn't this wierd? I made two clones from the same stipe at the same time. One sample from out near the edge of the stipe and the other piece from the center of the stipe. Why do they look so  different?

Question about shoebox tek :

https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/24038695

I stack my shoeboxes unlatched. I'm afraid I'm not getting enough FAE because they're stacked on top of one another. Would you guys suggest inverting the lids for more FAE?

Nonstop 3 times a day....jk


Fruiting conditions from the start is the current preference and you only mist when needed. You want to see teeny tiny beads of water on the surface of the substrate. No need to mist the walls or fan if properly hydrated substrate is used and tub is dialed in. Good luck.

Yeah, yeah.

Sorry but I have another question regarding the above shoebox tek. So he ended up placing all the shoeboxes on a giant tub which kinda functioned like a grow tent in a sense that it's a giant house where you can control the RH and have a lot of FAE. But then there's some advice going on about just using shoeboxes as stand-alone. THEN, to make matters worse, I saw another guide using a plastic bag over the shoeboxes. So now, I honestly don't know what to do or what guide to follow.

There are a variety of strategies to achieve the desired results.  Each grower will have their own sets of variables depending on geographic location, space, season, skill, etc., leading them to a method that works best for them.  Clean spawn, field capacity coir, and room temp + some practice = cubes growing.  Try not to get caught up in everything and keep it simple.

Hello, I'm starting my journey with agar, from what I read on the forum, disposable dishes are not suitable for sterilization, so a quick question: if I prepare 15 pieces and use a few, how long and under what conditions can I store the rest before transfers?

I’m confused by your question. Disposable petris are sterile in the packaging.

You mean how long can you store unused plates? After you pour your plates and wrap them they can sit unused for a looooong time. Someone with more experience can give a definite time but I've used plates as old as 3 months before. It's also a good indication you didn't contaminate them while pouring and wrapping.

Yeah, yeah.

Hey guys, I want to thank everybody for their help on this journey so far.

It's been 3 days since I did Agar-to-Grain and everything looks ok so far. No pics yet lol. I did a basic filter tek and I put the lids (ring and top) on right-side-up and had no difficulty getting them off. I watched a YouTube video where it said to tighten and then open and they come right off and it did.

Anyway, I purchased some "screw top" lids because I got nervous. I think I am going to do some Grain-to-Grain if I get good growth (why? I"m not sure really. I have 10 jars, 5 jars of GT and 5 jars of PEU; however a few jars have barely any grain in them (maybe 1/5 of the way full for a quart jar)).

For the screw top lid, when I go to PC, I do not fully close the jar, right? I just like screw it almost fully tight and then let the PC "close" it? And then when it's time to transfer I just unscrew it like normal and work quickly?

Grain-to-Grain is really no different from Agar-to-Grain right? Are there any special precautions I should take?

Thank you all!

I close my jars fully & have no issues opening them afterwards but I've heard some people do. See what works for you.

G2G & A2G are similar in process but obviously different in that you won't be using a tool & just pouring it in. Someone has a good G2G video on here but I forget who.. Maybe someone else can link. But practice makes perfect, don't overthink it.

Don't PC jars with fully closed lids and no gas exchange. Your lids either need to have a small hole and a filter, or be slightly loose and then screwed down *after* you PC.

I have not fully screwed jars fully when I PC although I do have filters on them. I was under the impression to not fully screw them on? Idk I guess I'll see in a few days whether this was done appropriately or not. Although they did sit on my kitchen counter for like 3 weeks with zero growth until I did transfers the other day

If you have a filter on your lid you can screw them all the way. It’s to prevent a vacuum from forming.
