birth? (PC GT mycelium)
    #28664080 - 02/17/24 03:17 PM (10 months, 24 days ago)

Hello, this is my very first time cultivating mushrooms of a completely unknown type that no one knows has any psychoactive compounds whatsoever. the syringe just said "P. C GT" whatever that means....

i am wondering if these grain jars look good enough to birth into substrate, or if anyone experienced will say they are contammed or too early.

their inoculation process was very iffy, as i am very new to this and messed up a lot of things, the biggest one is only letting it cool until the outside was cold after the sterilization!! (about 2 hours.) as well as her never handling a syringe before causing me to open the lids all the way to inoculate, and not to mention skipping the agar step altogether!! i am surprised they even managed to get this far and am very grateful! i want to make sure i see them to the very end, and wonder if there is anything of note to consider when transferring to a coco coir monotub. any guidance is highly appreciated.

i apologize if this post is out of line, i was very excited to see the full colonization and wanted to get input right away, please tell me if anything about this post is wrong and i will correct it right away! thanks in advance!!

the spawn was plain brown rice, i believe it to be called "broke boi tek".







edit: fixed rule 0.

Has your "cat" tried a break and shake? The jars must have been cool enough or else you, I mean your cat, wouldn't have gotten this far yet. Doesn't look like any contam, but give it a good shake and if it recovers fairly quickly and it all looks good after a couple of days your cat, is ready to send it to bulk.

You broke the first rule of the mush cult forum.

yes, i shook them around 30% outside colonization and they came back immediately. it was honestly suspicious just how fast they reached 100% after shaking compared to the time it took to reach 30, maybe the inside was much more colonized than i initially thought. they have been sitting in a similar spot to these pictures for about 3 days.

bulk coir substrate is pasteurizing as we speak and i will update this thread with progress! hopefully my first grow turns out to be a good one! sending regards to my cat for helping me so much :P might post pics of her too lol

hello guys uh so i made another mistake in not having enough coir prepared, i forgot to prepare the top layer that shields it. is this too important to leave? could i use un-bucket-tek'ed coir? i'm scared this will push my luck over the edge...... :frown:

You don’t need a top layer and you also don’t need to pasteurize your substrate. You can just hydrate some coir and throw it right on if you really want to add a top layer

hello, here is an update... i've been looking into contaminations and have started questioning if this is normal or not. i know the exposed grains were bad and the fact that they all grew pretty uniform is a good sign but no pins so far and i was wondering if i should expect fruits soon or if i messed something up i'm not seeing. i'm also colorblind and this could be the greenest trich in the world and i wouldn't know 😬
i've been staring at pictures of trich for like 4 hours 😭😭😭
