Im gonna borrow a pic from that instead of referencing it and creating legwork for ya.



The giveaway here is the raised areas? Bc I've definitely seen that before...I didnt realize the myc kinda swooshing up like that was anything more than exploratory behavior. Whoops.

What’s in it? Looks potentially bacterial but depends on the culture.

Sorry just saw what it was. Yeah could be baccy but I’d let it rip. So like a 5



A 5 would indicate to me a pretty high level of contamination. What exactly do you see in the picture that gives you that impression? I'm not disagreeing with you as I have no reason to doubt your assessment. I simply want to learn to recognize what I'm obviously not seeing.

Thanks for your help!!

That's a texas sized 10-4. I should probably start posting more of my agar plates. I think I've been missing some issues. 😬

Ive got reusable petris now, so I wont be fighting frosted plastic anymore, which will surely motivate me to take more pics. 🤙

I think it looks okay. Like everyone else is saying.
I've come to realize this is the way millet works.

I was wondering what I was doing wrong for a long time cuz I was never getting full colonization around all of those Millet pieces. But I tend to have great results with my bags  that look like that

How many tubs have you attempted total?

Time is a good teacher, but repetition is better. 100 tubs is a great education in a species.

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.



First you gotta figure out whatever keywords summon the good 32oz twist top PP-5 delitainers from your retailer of choice. It’s going to be something along the lines of “ultra thick airtight plastic containers with twist top lids”. There’s like a million different product pages and they all look exactly the same so you might need to order a few different SKUs to figure out which ones aren’t crap.

After that, drill a hole in the lid. Cover the hole with a PTFE filter sticker and that’s pretty much it. Works for 90mm petris. Pour, set, then stack them upside down on the lid. Screw on the rest of the container then toss the whole thing lid side up in your pressure cooker.

You can also run them unmodified by simply loosening the lid. The tradeoff, in my experience, is that sometimes you don’t get it quite right and they go weird or explode. Hole+Sticker works every time no matter what.

Sure, I 100A% agree.

However, is there really any other way to do a PF tek grow besides a spore syringe?

That’s the only reason I was making one.

Beyond that, I agree. No reason to make one.



yeah, you could inoculate with submerged culture. I don't advise it for beginners at all.

Here in my country most people from what I've seen use sorghum (red milo) for their grains when growing cubes. Some of them put agricultural lime (calcium carbonate) in the water when they soak the sorghum. Idk why they do it but they do. Does adding agricultural lime while soaking make any difference?  And what is it for? Isn't that what people do when growing oyster mushrooms? Or can that be beneficial to cubes too?  I have some agricultural lime sitting around but I've never added it to my sorghum while soaking.

This looks like a solid idea! I've got the plastic ones, but I dont see why it wouldn't work. Thanks for sharing!




I oven sterilize my plates just stacked and wrapped with foil, but mine are glass. I think I've seen posts saying that their plastic plates' lids got warped in the oven, so if you go this route you might want to try with just 2-3 plates at first and see if they can handle that type of heat.

Give the stipe a squeeze. When it’s soft like a marshmallow it’s ready, if it’s still pretty firm let it go longer.
