It seems I have finally managed to stabilize a clean culture! Look at this beauty, it took over the whole plate and no signs of bacteria whatsoever!

The funny thing is, while all other spore germ. plates eventually developed weird growth and browning, my first ever agar plate which I made back in December, after having given up on it and just leaving it in incubation, has actually shown the healthiest growth out of all my plates, and even after all those months was not contaminated! (Only some bacterial colonies on the other side of the plate: I did a penta-swabbing with spores)

So I quickly separated the healthy growth onto a few new plates, and this one looks the best! :smile:




I've done 5 transfers on it today and hopefully I'll have some bags of spawn ready by around mid April if these colonize as aggressively as I have heard! :grin:

Hey Peeps! Hey, have any of you had issues storing these cultures in the fridge? I started 10 jars for a large outdoor attempt and used plates made over the Summer. It seems the cold storage has “ retarded” it. Zero noticeable growth for the first week. It is growing now but seems off. Maybe got contaminated in storage? The plates were sealed with parafilm, stored in ziplocks but who knows.  I’ll see what happens but I’m going back to spores just in case.

Soaking the fully colonized subs of India and some more warm weather woodlovers in an effort to make them pin.



Edit: forgot to paste the pic

If my memory serves me well I got IWL to pin last year by repeatedly soaking for a few hours and heavily misting the substrate (drain out the excess water after soak, of course).

We'll see what happens! Will report here.

I got a few pins when I left it outside in the sun. Thought I had the golden ticket. Heat! That's it! Went away for two days and the pins turned to black mush, it was too hot. Starting over now.

I was so frustrated about that, I couldn't look at the sub for a week.

Ha cool! At least you  got some action. Yeah they like the heat of the sun but not the drying effect or its direct light.  Warm (enough) and damp is what I'm striving for.

Back in the game! Just took some (admittedly very early) transfers from one of the germ plates.  I’m a little surprised that germination was as quick as it was, the print being over half a year old. Cheers!

Do you have a build list for the tub? I'm guessing it's similar principles to a JCM?

Back when I was younger, I didn't have a clue, and come to think of it, I still doubt I do.

It's  actually  more akin to Supatharipper's dreamer tubs. He has a thread on how to build them. It's  linked in his signature and he's got the whole shopping list for it on there too.

Made a little planter for outside with the India clone in it a few days ago:

The pins in the automated tub have been growing steadily



I also spotted some more new tiny pins!

Getting excited now. Looks like they are enjoying this a lot more than a standard mono.

Will keep updating

Today's pic of the fruits developing



I was hoping for more pins to show up but so far only a few more tiny ones here and there.

Next time I'll probably keep the substrate relatively dry for the first 60-65 days with no automation, like a normal mono, then soak once or twice overnight and hook up on the automated system.

Right on Tweeq! Good work getting these to fruit and for getting these genes out to the community. You’re a good egg.

That went fast! The first fruit looks about ready :smile:



The fruits look at lot like the outdoor ones, which I think is a good sign. They sure lean towards the light.

Next mission: to get a better pinset

Also I'll start a small strain hunt in hopes of finding a culture that's more at home in the indoor environment. Somebody not in this thread got a culture that gives plate pins! so that's encouraging.

May start the hunt with the print I'm gonna take from the pictured fruit.

That first 'flush' gave 6 fruits in total. I printed the first 3.

Here are the other 3 fruits that were ready a few days after the above.



One more bonus fruit showed up late and was just harvested

Put the cake outside with some new chips. Same planter as last year. I had to empty it and drill out the drainage holes more because the whole thing was completely  drowned.

Just lazily shoveled all the old contents back in and put the substrate and new chips on top.



Just planted some creeping Jenny cuttings  in there too.
