Can I get a gut check on these?  Are these looking good to spawn?  The first two I feel better about. The third I’m inclined not to spawn but hold onto it and see if the gaps I’m seeing are not bacterial and do a shoe box with that one later if it looks okay later. Thanks!

First 2 look bacterial but the third one is definitely the worst, I wouldn't do anything with it. The first 2 you can try to top fruit or spawn at like 1:1 and possibly get something out of them.

Why do I have shades of white to brown?

I cannot remember if it came from a print or a swab, but it did not come from a syringe.

It is X7X+

No their asking why  some of the caps are brown and some are white.


It was a MS grow that had multiple varieties in it or it was an unstable cross such as maketi

They look really wet… is that just me? It looks almost like a bacillus type goo to me, but the growth is consistent and color isn’t off, so the first 2 might be ok

Smell test would tell if it was bacillus tho I’d think

It's that damned millet. I swear the hull is plastic-like so it never looks colonized.

For X7X+ it's a first. I've grown over 100 boxes of it and never seen a single leucistic / albino / false albino / white.

All I've grown and I'll I've seen photos of is "LBM" (little brown mushroom, wild looking).

Even on your brown ones, the stems look long for X7X+.

Pic tax: typical X7X+

Pre final shake. I shook it after the pic.

What’s the deal with spawn ratios? Considering that the coir itself isn’t nutritious, is the difference just the water capacity. And more water allows to use more nutrients from spawn for fruiting? I’m guessing that the yield doesn’t increase linearly when increasing the amount of substrate.

Quick search finds this interesting thread from Pasty: How low can I go. Where he gets a yield of 500g wet per quart from 1:3, 600g from 1:4, 650g  from 1:5 and 700g from 1:6. Though there’s also a time vs yield aspect there.

Not qualified enough to answer, but I'd be interested to know the dry weights for the yields in Pasty's experiment and what impact the additional water / same nutrients has.

How do you guys like to sterilize autoclavable petris? I was thinking stacks of 10 in oven bags maybe, but figured someone with more experience might have the process optimized.

Coir is your water source. Mushrooms are around 90% water. You can have all the nutrients in the world, but you're gonna be bottlenecked by your water content, if it isn't enough.

More coir means longer colonization time though, which is more window of opportunity for contamination to stick it to you, if your spawn isn't 100%.

I think this could be a good indicator that the original x7x has mostly or all GT genetics.  Gt is known for spontaneous Albinism or Lucy fruits.  X7x_x7x states here how he obtained x7x originally..

I prize my coir and space over my spawn. Coir is the only thing I have to order online. Therefore my go-to is 2:2 in a shoebox to average 600-800g wet, first flush.

I like stacks of 5.
The past year I have been using a goofy method to reduce condensation.
The top plate has no agar, it has about 10 pennies and a folded paper towel inside. The paper towel is folded in a way that it pushes against the lid. After unwrapping the foil, I rotate the lid on top against the paper towel. This removes the condensation. I then swap the dry lid with the next plate. This works for me because the top plate is the worst.

I misread his as "is it x7x+" like he didn't remember what it was.

x7x_x7x on that thread said it was a mix of "golden teacher, mazatapec, B+ and others."

But this tub could be GT poking its head out. It's the first with white I've seen, including the pix posted here by a bunch of other people.

x7x classic was less robust growing, less strong, didn't grow as fast, didn't have dark spore prints, and had pinkish spores.
