Currently using unmodified 2 piece lids with full size underneath.
Might switch to one piece plastics tho

So plastic with rtv’d disc hole?
Was worried about trying to fit all 10 quarts in my pc at a time with different lids
Are the white ones they carry better than Ball brand black ones?

I prefer the black, ball-leak proof lids, personally.



Left is 29mm, right was the large ones cut down.

How do you do grain to grain transfer when your grain and myc is all stuck together? I've got a nice looking grain jar that I want to transfer to a bunch of other jars, but it doesn't pour because it's colonized and everything is stuck together. Any tips for doing this?

Shake shake shake

Outside of SAB, of course.

RR used an inflated bike tire to beat it on.  But if your spawn was clean and you rinsed it, it should break up quite easily.

Was gonna make some PF Tek pucks for cleaning up cultures. I make cakes with other types of flours without any problems (recently did oatmeal and red rice), but in this case, is it BRF specifically that has such good odds against bacteria, or the PF substrate with a bunch of vermiculite?

Brown Rice in general has a lower bioburden, Than cereals.
It's also finer, and coats the Verm well

Oatmeal has higher lipid content, also may absorb more water messing with whole structure.

I see, so I will get BRF for the Josex Pucks in particular to maximize the benefits.

Oatmeal FLOUR works nicely for cakes as I recently discovered. I just use whats on hand because fucking pantry moths made a mess of the flours I had. Next attempt will be chickpea :p I basically just ground the oatmeal in a blender because of pantry moth eggs and larvae.

Have these not worked for you, for the poke?

I'd still give it a try if you've got it on hand

No, I just haven't tried the poke method yet. Figured I want to clean my cultures on pucks first before trying LC.

I just don't have BRF on me, I do have oatmeal flour and chickpea though. Seems shortsighted to risk pucks with experimental flours.

Haven't heard much about chickpea,  but the red rice in coffee grinder should be doable

I've got 5 myco-quarts going and I was wondering if they're ready to spawn to bulk (coir). I started the first two on 12.19 and the next three on 12.22 so they've been going for what feels like a while (just over 2 weeks at this point). I tiger dropped what seemed like clean agar into both and shook them when they were close to 30% colonized.




I can see that the top of 2 hasn't finished colonizing yet, and 3/4/5 aren't as thick of growth. Do they look good so far?

This is my first go at this so any perspective would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
-sage

Just cubes? Look awfully fluffy - my guess is they are bacterial but that doesn’t mean you can’t send em - just not ideal. Have any photos of the plates that got dropped?

Also IMO - 3 looks the sketchiest and 5 looks the best.

All 5 are bacterial, but you can probably get some fruits out of 1, 4, and especially 5. I’d toss the other two. Great job for your first time :cheers:

yeah all cubes, gt, b+, and Costa Rica from mss onto agar, unfortunately no photos of the agar, but I do have some from recent transfers. 1=B+, 2=CR, 3=GT




The GT(3) I left out so they were cold for the first few days and they switched over from tomentose to rhizo, they also grew up (vertically) rather than out, all 6 are donor plates so they've been sitting in the cold for at least a few days which you can see most notably on GT(3) where the growth is up, flat, then up again.

Also black specs are either activated carbon or burnt bits from my scalpel. Most, if not all of the plates were teal LME and the color has been mostly eaten up.

I was assuming the cold was a stressor and 'caused' them to go rhizo but no clue, like I said my first go at this:shrug:. They all smell like shrooms (which doesn't mean a lot), checked them today but they seem to have stalled esp 2, so I was concerned...

Cold in my case is room temp, avg is 66, low of 60 at night probably. My agar storage tote is closer to 80+ (is this too warm?) on the bottom level and 70 at the top.

awesome, thanks :smile: so if I do get fruits from these and clone those would those likely still have a bacterial contamination?

Any ideas why I have no pins? 4 of the jars finished first so I put those in and got an OK flush (8g dried) and some small second flush. But the 6 jars I added later have no pins after 16 days.

The ones that did fruit were Treasure Coast, the other 6 are Puerto Rico and Mexicana.

Any ideas on how to fix my setup would be appreciated!
