Clone a big beautiful mushroom but its weak.
    #28897624 - 08/02/24 11:27 AM (5 months, 12 days ago)

After transferring agar to oats and then to tub it grew big beautiful mushrooms. But there is a problem. I did 4 grams dried got a great body high but no visuals so the genetics are weak. The sample grew to fast as well after about 8 days in tub got first pins and 5 days after that were ready to harvest that's pretty fast from my experience.

My question how can you tell a good mushroom with high potency? Is there anyway to do so? What do you look for in clone material because obviously thick stems and big mushrooms isn't the only thing. Or maybe you clone many and try? Any advice would be helpful thanks.

You clone for the qualities you want in future flushes.  Since clusters tend to produce more product in a given area, I prefer to clone a fruit from clusters.  Of course there are other qualities that you also select for as well.

With Psilocybe species, clone a fast growing, good pinning, fruit from a cluster.  Since potency is largely subjective, sample a small part of your crop early, and if you like what you eat, clone a fruit from a large cluster the next morning.

either take the shotgun approach growing dozens of clones from your best tubs in half pint jars of spawn to find one or two worth testing in a mono tub, or just grow a more potent species and be done with it. most cube varieties are pretty weak on the best of days.

edit: don't bioassay every clone. that would take forever. fruit the half pint clone cultures out in big deli deli cups at 1:4 inside a water tub or something like that and *if* they make the cut in terms of yield (>2 oz first flush per quart jar/~500g spawn predicted), fruiting time and ease of harvest then eat some to see if they're worth testing on a larger scale. don't waste your time growing mediocre clones when you could be growing mostly average to exceptional MS genetics with much less effort. best to take clones from unusually well performing MS grows anyway.

Good advice! It seems cloning shrroms is just as easy as it is with cannabis.... with cannabis i always take clones of everything and once I can test the flowers I toss the unfavorable clones and keep the rest...at least with shrooms, the clones dont take up much space....
