Nice haul. No problem keeping some in the fridge for a few days up to a week or so. Just be sure to get what is in the dehydrator properly dry. 24 hours at the highest setting to be sure that they will keep for the longest possible time. Then store them dry and away from air, ideally in glass. They will hold potency for years that way.

I use those, I typically wind up replacing the lid before the sticker. Of course I currently use 2 piece metal lids and I feel like the flat lid doesn’t really last that long

Now I'm hungry! :lol:

Thanks, man! I'm finally starting to gain some momentum and will be able to (hopefully) show some successful grows! I should have had some brf cakes by now but they are taking forever to colonize. Almost there tho. Took so long that my tubs caught up. I did these cakes like a week or two after my 1st set of cakes.

Trying to understand this...

Liquid Culture is discouraged because it is hard to spot contamination (possibly other reasons also).
So I go LC to agar/LME and grow it out.
It grows out contamination free on the first go.
Is the LC all contamination free or is it possible that the LC culture has SOME contamination but I didn't get any on my sample?

Its likely clean. Thats what we mean when we say test your lc.

Even when i make an lc, im testing it on agar.

Triggers a question for me: does the location of contamination denote between clean lc and not? Meaning, assuming a small inoculation in the center of the plate, if that goes clean but there’s contamination elsewhere is that more likely a sab or process contam vs lc contam?

A properly clean LC will test clean any place you take the LC from and test on LC. If agar doesnt show clean growth the whole batch is toast

Ain't that kinda the opposite of what ya want? Iean I know I placed my wedge in the center and my scalpel came from side x because I'm right handed , if you were to streak it and a contam showed where mine showed you'd write it off a dirty lc when I'm reality you fucked up?

I would probably consider any contaminated lc test plate dirty due to the lc (atleast at this point, for me.) I was thinking more along the lines of giving more opportunity for anything actually in the lc to come to light

I know....I'm just using my plate to show the concept that I know that it was me who fucked up , not my inoculant

Guys, holy shit. Just harvested almost a kilo wet from my first mono, and it's way too much for my dehydrator. Is there any downside to tossing the extra in the fridge until tomorrow? Or, should i make a big batch of fresh tea with the extra to keep in fridge?



Just make sure you don't store them in plastic. If you're going to be storing in the fridge they  should be going inside of paper bags.

Thanks. Interesting feedback. So far I’ve been pleased with the LC I’ve received from one of the trusted vendors. The failures I’ve had have been due to the purchased spawn and substrate which I’ve since bailed on.

I also use sterile vacuum sealed glass vials to store my lc. Not sure if anyone else does or has tried it. Works well for me so far.
