Morning fiends, I'll be trying my hand at subtropicalis (thanks Lew!) this year. I have always used rye for everything, but want to give milo or millet a shot (no-prep a la Crackatoa). It seems really convenient and the multiplication of inoculation points fascinates me. Do or don't?


Subtropicalis seems to prefer milo over millet ime. Haven't tried rye to compare, but wheat has done really well too.

Top row shaken 24 hours prior to picture.

However, I have grown lots of subtrops on millet up to now. It works fine. It just looks like the myc fails to digest the hulls much at all. So you can use millet, but I don't think it is the best suited grain unless blended with another grain like wheat, which I did for a long time.

Edit:
Same jars 2 weeks later.

You can get colonized agar plates off etsy. That's where I got mine they even have TTBVI

Hell yea some nice healthy looking spawn going to fruit them tonight. All 3 diff strains I got colonized perfect. If you got a bad plate i'm sure they'd likely send another.

As this is my first grow in over 8 years, I've kinda forgotten the signs of whether the grow is too dry... too wet... not enough FAE, etc.

I live in a much dryer climate now than the last time I grew... it's high desert here. I'm light misting every morning and the PP5 container is tented with a ziploc baggie and kept in a pretty dry room at 73 degrees. The tallest ones are about 2 inches long.

What do you think? Does it need more or less of anything at this stage which is 3 days after the pins became first visible?

Quick Question:

I'm newer, so playing with the gap on 2 diff 12qt tubs for FAE. I def had them too open at one point and it dried out a bit, now I'm concerned I overcorrected and over hydrated. They seem to be in good shape (hydration wise) now, but have some stuff I'm not sure if it's contam or just dry mycelium, etc...

Also, since it's now pinning... if this is contam just dump the whole tub? Would the fruits be contaminated in any way? Is it worth still letting them fruit and harvesting them?

Thank you to anyone and everyone that responds! I love learning all of these new things and getting better grows =).

On Etsy? Seems hard to believe that isn't a huge risk, as the seller. Id love to be able to pull that off though.

Thats wild. I know it was sounding like there's a gray area with the myc, but I wouldn't want any attention just the same.

I absolutely butchered this agar transfer for a cube. Went ahead and let it go though, just to watch and learn, and it started doing this.

Is that an expected appearance and behavior for abused and poorly aligned mycelium or is there something else going on here?

Do grain jar lids need to be loose to pressure cook properly if they have a vent?

Metal two piece lids or plastic?

Metal: tight is fine with a filter, but you may want to flip the the sealing lids so that the rubber seal doesn't stick to the jar.

Plastic: They will sterilize fine tight, but they can warp and be very difficult to open if tight when heated. Like really difficult sometimes. So leave them just slightly loose and tighten them after the PC cycle is complete.

I do 2-piece metal, tight but with a hole with a sticker filter over it and sealed on with high-temp silicon:
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/29065574#29065574

I was doing loose before that and was getting contam sometimes, it ended when I started doing this.

Some people do loose with no issues, but I could never make it work. I also tried a hole with two layers of micropore tape over the hole, which some used to do, but got contam sometimes.

Some people do what I'm doing but use different stickers and get contam. I'm not saying those are the only stickers, but those are stickers that work.

All in one plastic ball jar lids


You don’t have to modify any jars anymore just a quarter turn opened when you put it into the PC and these work fine. No more replacing rusty lids.
