Hi all, just after some help on these john allen spores. I know, I put way too many spores on this agar. I only put them on 4 days ago and i didn't add any water. Everything I've read says it take longer than that. Is this good or infected?

It's hard to tell but it looks like you have mycelium. Take a few transfers from different sections along the outer edges. Flame your scalpel in-between each transfer. I sometimes put multiple transfers on 1 plate, usually 3 per plate. Then from there I'll look for better growth before they touch each other.
With those condiment cups I would do 2 at most, one on each side. If you have a lot of them then just do 1 per plate.

So I ran out of beginners luck... I've got a few Trichoderma infected cakes I've put in quarantine outside. Will cubes survive a southern Scandinavian climate? I think it might be a tad cold so I just wanna know if there is any point in digging them down or should I just throw them in the compost bin?

Thanks for answering. It has two little airfilters on the lid. Should I open the lid and put it i to a plastic bag, riskiing contamination? Buy Agar and try to safe it that way. I am quite a newbie. Help appreciated.

Hey guys,

can you have a look at my recently made shoeboxes?

https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/29151930#29151930

I used rye grain, inoculated with MSS syringes and used them after colonization to make shoeboxes with verm + coco coir.
The small boxes were bulked 1:1 (grain:bulk) and the big ones 1:3 (grain:bulk).
The jars had some yellowish spots which did not appear before full colonization.
This is why i thought it was due to stress.

The problem is that the surface of the shoeboxes also develop yellowish areas especially in those areas where pooling waterdrops did not evaporate. Do you think there is an bacterial contam or only metabolites due to stress. (long colonization / water droplets not evaporating)

Not sure if there is enough FAE. The lids were flipped upside down. Should i remove them completely for some days?

Thank you in advance.

I have a subaeruginosa plate that's knotting. Is this even possible? The myc looked woodlovery enough. But I'm really in doubt now. Cyan and azure never plinned for me. Any input?

So, me and my buddy were tossing ideas around and we came up with this one possibly stupid idea. What if you took a brick of colonized substrate and suspended it some type of way to where both sides were exposed to air. This would have to be done in a grow tent of course. Would both sides try to pin or? Don’t make fun of me if this is too stupid of an idea:crazy:

It depends on a lot of factors, but yeah, generally it would try to pin on all sides.

Folks get side and bottom pins sometimes in monotubs.  And shiitake blocks are fruited out of the bag so they can pin on all sides.  Similarly, we birth pf cakes.

Similar ideas.

It probably won't increase yield much, if at all, and would be more difficult to harvest.

Right, I never tried pf tek that is pretty similar and a much better process then just a block of colonized sub. Well, I knew I wasn’t coming up with some new genius idea I was just curious. Stay curious friends.

BRF cakes are exposed on all sides and fruit on all sides.

Anyone else cannot add pictures on this site lately?

Anyways, is rice straw that still has a green color to it okay to use for pan cyan substrate? It feels dry and also has yellow. It's around 50 percent yellow, 50 percent green. Online when I see people making substrate using straw the straw is always totally yellow.

It says something about me running out of space. I went on a website to make an image smaller and now it worked. This never happened to me before.


Here is the picture of the rice straw. Is this good to use with cow manure for pan cyan substrate?

Need a DIY substitute for inoculation loops, any tips?

Got some proper ones coming in the mail from China, but need some sooner than they'll be arriving.
