Ovens suck , put a pot of water in at 350 and see how long it takes to get to a boiling point

I'm almost sure he's referring to the Vabiooth autoclavable polycarbonate dishes on Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C954KGQW

They're really quite nice - to my eye, as transparent as the disposable ones, while being able to withstand autoclave temperatures.

Sorry guys :lol:

Asked and then got busy with work

To answer all of you

yes Phaethon is right Iโ€™m using the [autoclavable] dishes from Vabiooth, and thanks I totally missed that PC = Polycarbonate, that there answers my question

I was looking at using the oven because both my pressure cookers were filled with bags for a few hours yet and wanted to not be up so late :tongue: shouldโ€™ve started earlier oh well

Cybork I appreciate your effort but I too can use ChatGPT :lol: was looking more for personal experience, but still I appreciate the effort :thumbup:

Cronicr yeah I usually PC them, have never fucked around with the oven but I know itโ€™s viable was just unsure about temps

The real issue was just that I had forgotten/didnโ€™t see that the plates are polycarbonate rather than polypropylene, so confusion

In the end I waited for one of my PCs to free up and just ran the plates and the agar together, but separate, and am waiting for them to cool now so I can pour

Okily dokily thanks guys I appreciate the answers

I run my PP5 containers with agar in my small pressure cooker as well lots of times. I mean the little one that holds only 6 (?) liters that I use for cooking food. Just saying that, because for example if your 23qt PC is still occupied with something else, there can be also be another alternative than oven. :thumbup:

In an unmodified monotub, how do you solve the sides of a colonized sub drying out quicker then the more inner parts?

Is this an inherent flaw of unmodified tubs, as air exchange is happening only at the sides? Would a hole in the middle of a lid help with this, while at the same time somehow reducing the gap at the sides?

If you're prepared to put a hole in your lid, why not your tub?
It's as simple as drilling a few small holes.

I was in a rush more than 2 weeks ago when I dehydrated my mushrooms. I thought they were cracker dry but didn't check on all of them. I stored them in a  air tight jar with silica gel and when I checked on them today I noticed some of them are not totally cracker dry. Is it best to put them back into the dehydrator?

Did the fruits maybe lose any potency storing them not cracker dry (they are pretty dry but not totally cracker dry)..., or will it lose any potency by putting them back in the dehydrator? I'm thinking of putting them back in the dehydrator at 70 degrees celcius overnight.

I tried them fresh out of the dehydrator and they were pretty potent btw

They may have lost a little potency, likely not a lot but no way to tell how much until you eat them :thumbup: definitely just toss them back in the dehydrator until cracker dry, toss in the silica packs as well to recharge them

Sorry that is toast as it gets

My first try looked similar lol it happens, just read through This link, read the Hitchhikerโ€™s Guide to the Shroomery and all that

Agreed, toast.

Did you inoculate an AIO bag with a multi spore syringe?

I would imagine they do. Holes are on the sides. I did add a hole in the middle of my lid with a single layer of micropore tape. I donโ€™t have issues drying out, but I keep an eye on it. They just seem to be a little more eager to pin towards the edge is why I did so.

This batch is pinning more evenly, but I also compacted the sub more than usual. I was under the impression to gently pack. Seen enough here say pack it good so I did.

Take notes and adjust. Dial it in for your conditions. Learn to โ€œlisten.โ€

Nothing more to "listen" then I've already listened :smile:, it's clear my tubs (they are actually boxes) have too much FAE on the sides, as the sides get dry but on the middle there can actually be too much moisture. This holds especially true for shoeboxes, where the level of the sub is only two or tree inches away from the lid ...

Could a TC or others give me a quick gut check on this?  Trying PF Tek for the first time using a water bath and Verm for the roll after the dunk. These were birthed about 10 days ago.  Everything was going smoothly, but Iโ€™m a little nervous these look bacterial in the past few days. Any advice appreciated.

Losing it's veil is part of the growing process. Your children are growing up!

Or do you maybe mean it is a sporeless variant and you're afraid something is wrong? With my PE uncut I have it all the time as well (that the veil tears). They don't drop spores though. Which is as desired.


Thanks Mike and Cybork:) BTW I should have mentioned, these are Golden Teachers.

Expanding volume of LC. PE LC (mycelium) after 6 days incubation. Media is crystal clear. I may have been too aggressive when shearing the mycelium? The blue spots only appear on the mycelium that is stuck to the jar, at/above the โ€œmedia lineโ€ (? Top of the liquid). Looked all over the forums, could not find a similar post. Thank you for your assistance๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Some open veils earlier than others. Some drop spores when veil breaks or it's hours later. while other varieties will open days before spores,  Such as thr black cap ochra opened just after pinning and grew for at least a week before spore production.

Yes it's simply indicates the mushroom is opening up more and maturing.
