I was planning to fill the syringe most of the way with LC and then have a small jar of sterile water with a silicone port, then draw up the water. The best I've got right now is to treat the silicone as a one time use and then remove it and reapply. There's probably a better way - honestly, Ive only got 3 grows separating me from being a total noob, and I've never made LC, so this idea is a work in progress for sure.


Sounds like an excellent idea, I'm sure it will work. :thumbup:

The only downside I see is loosing some ability to determine cleanliness/turbidity of your LC, which to be fair is a pretty big downside, but if you use a very clear broth and as clear a syringe you can get I think it’s definitely doable

But yeah, likely will want to suck in some sterile water afterwards, but I’d try it without in case it works and you don’t have to add a pointless step

You definitely can have a jar with a ship but also I’ve seen people use the same little centrifuge containers that are used for slants, I think in ReverendMycs brf puck writeup he shows that. Would definitely be less of a hassle. If you are having to make a new ship every time you poke I think that’d remove the convenience of colonizing the LC in the syringe

Is there a benefit to g2g instead of going straight from agar -> grain -> substrate?

Like all LC, you would test a few drops on agar before commiting it to bulk.

Yeah, I kinda figured reapplying a ship every time was definitely an inefficient way of doing it, but figure Ill see if it works as a concept before putting too much effort into it. Honestly, it kinda started out as a "hold my beer" thought, but now I've got you guys telling me it might actually work, so hell yeah. I dont mind making a ship just to test it out as a concept, but yeah, maybe something like a slant or cryovial. I'm all about the brainstorming, so thanks amigo. I've been working long hours, but I'm gonna get after it as soon as I get freed up a bit.

My foundation for a test run, input more than welcome:

5 10cc syringes filled with broth and PCd

3 agar plates assigned to each syringe

Sterile water - not sure if using 1 jar for all 5 syringes or do 5 jars so that it's all virgin materials, to help reduce failure points if it doesnt go well.

Let the 5 syringes colonize, then inoculate 3 plates with each one. I feel like that should be adequate sample size to make up for any user error, being that I'm def still getting acquainted with SAB work and sterile procedure.

Again, the idea is very much a work in progress, and I'm def a bit above my skill level here, so hopefully I can at least show it'll work when user error is removed.

Oh absolutely. I just laid out the test run I had in mind. Your input is more than welcome. I've never tested a new idea - I'm still working on getting a grip on well established procedures, so fire away if you've got any ideas. Appreciate ya, amigo.

QQ: if you grew some mush on a PF puck in vitro and allowed it to stay a closed system, how long do you think that closed system would have retrievable material? Like it would fruit, return to mycelium, maybe fruit again, but at some point it would go into stasis like a Petri dish, right?

So 4 out of my 6 jars have been colonized since yesterday at least but the last 2 are taking some time.


My question is are these considered 100% colonized as in 7 more days and they'll be ready?

As you can see both only have a little sliver left and the rest of the jar is colonized 360 degrees

The reason I'm asking is because the first face on pic of a jar is the one I think is now on to it's 7 day period because in the first jar bottom Pic I have there, the bottom looks completely colonized.

And it'd be really convient if I could consider them both colonized and start the clock but I'm aware I may need to be patient with the second one.

I'm 90 percent certain this sweating is a sign of contam. :frown: on the iffy one for clarity.the other 5 jars I did a g2g look like the other Jar, 3 of which I've sent to bulk that are doing well, and looked like the second picture :frown: should I toss or try to send to a pan by itself? I usually use 3 to make a tub, the other two *look* ok. What says the community??

I sure hope not I have alot of condensation in all my jars right now but more expierenced growers told me it's natural as they get to full colonization and they pointed out there was no weird colors,growths or bad smells coming from it so they gave mine a clean bill of health and there's tons of condensation in all 6 of mine.

I'm green as hell but I don't see anything but mycelium there. I'll be waiting for someone else to weigh in and see what they got to say so I can learn more.

The condensation and uncolonized bits of grains pushed up against the glass probably spell bacteria. I don't really see the "ice cream" look of a badly bacterial jar, though. If it breaks up easily it's probably not too bad.

Might want to spawn that jar separately if the other ones look a lot better. Have a 6 qt shoebox or a 2 gallon Ziploc bag?

Yours are pf tek tho, those jars are grain

In thr meantime thought I'd bump this so it doesn't get lost in the fray. No rush. Just trying to understand if a small spec of subtracted not being colonized doesn't count as 100% colonization essentially. I'm sure the second jar just needs time just the other 4 jars finished 3 days ago and I'm worried about leaving them colonizing for too long.

I think earlier in the thread someone said when you see pinning inside the jar you gotta transfer to fc. But seems like leaving the Jars that colonized first for 3 or 4 more days then the 7 days should be fine I just don't know.

I have a couple jars like that too.
Nothing lost by letting them cook longer.
