Any reason this wouldn't be viable as a spawn?

Spawn for what? Trich or human turds? I'm sure it will excel at either.

Calling all Instant Potters. How long are you cooking your agar in the Instant Pot? I have the 6-quart pot if that matters. And high pressure I assume?

noomer i suspect that once you hydrate it ans pc it it might make a mushy mess.  if theres added sugar, its probably too much nutrition for cubes but you know me, im always supportive of people trying things as long as you go into it to learn something.  no harm in trying things.

Hi Pressure for 40min. I vent about 5-10 min beforehand.

Do your shoeboxes have a gasket or seal? Most shoeboxes have some way of allowing air exchange to prevent fungus on damp shoes. Small boxes of similar size may not. I’d check that first.

I’ve grown shoeboxes in a closet with the door closed and never had a problem. If your boxes are correct maybe open the door to the closet? Prop up one side of the lid? After that I’d look for other things causing your troubles rather than dead air in a closet.

I use some plastic mason jar lids as a trivet and fill water to the top of them. Probably an inch & change

Is this ready to make some transfers? It’s in water agar so the mycelium looks a little thin.

Sorry this is not a quick answer-
Instapot's as a brand max PSI varies by model from 10-12. Versions made for international distribution may express the numbers as pascal or kilopascals which I will leave to you to google should need be.  You'll find your pot's max PSI either on the model number label or in the handbook. Assuming you are below 1,000 feet elevation and have a 10 psi pot Process 1 layer of pint jars of a simple liquid (which agar qualifies as) for 30 minutes and quart jars for 40 minutes at 10 pounds of pressure (adjust for your altitude). Always allow the pressure to naturally return to zero pressure before opening, which can take approximately 25-30 minutes. If you are between 1,000 and 2,000 you will need 11 psi from your pot and between  2,000 and 3,000 12psi In spite of the group think that some in forums chanting we are not canning we are sterilizing every pressure canning recipe is designed to reach 250F and hold that temp long enough to sterilize against botulism spores which require the same times and temperatures as the most heat resistant Trichoderma spores.

Each degree of PSI over what is required for your altitude will raise your steam temp by 2 degrees. The effect of a degree or two over has negligible affects on your agar but processing at using 15psi at sea levels generate an extra 10 degrees of which will scorch your agar.

If you are ever concerned about the sensors or seals in your pot you can either find someone with a wireless high temperature data logger probe (most culinary schools have have food safety labs with more than one and are willing to test your pot with a little sweet talk and a heavy dose of food safety concern). High end wireless meat thermometers often have a probe that reaches 165-170 range and an ambient sensor that goes (depending on the model) from 400-1000f If you decide to try to test your pot with one cover the probe with a bit of silicone tube or you risk killing it's sensor in sterilization/canning mode and keep the ambient sensor out of boiling water.

*there are other brands of similar pots that do reach 15 PSI on high

I do the same as tossed salad, but my instant pot (different brand) is a 12qt so its more water than what a smaller one would hold. Shouldn't be an issue though since once you close the vent you won't be losing anymore water like a normal pc would and its a relatively short time.

I always used a little fan pointing away from my tubs when I was using a closer.  My closet didn’t have an outlet so I bought 2 fans that would charge and run about 12hrs on low off Amazon, I think they were like 15$ each
