Would I be correct in thinking this is trich?



It doesn't look like trich to me, trich is very white and powdery before it spores.

But it's not mushroom mycelium.  Jar is toast either way.

So I have a few MSS plates that I made, I’ve now taken a few transfers 3-4 and have some nice clean isolates.

I was assuming getting the isolate was so that the whole tub is a consistent species so you get a nice even canopy. However there is no real way to tell how productive any of them are until they fruit…

So should I just put my MS plates to grain now that I know they are clean, then pick whichever ones I want to clone?

Also some of the isolates are really nice and bright thick myc. Some are isolated, but just lighter (not as bright white) should I just toss them? Or toss them in with the MS plates in some grain.

MS plate-g——g2g——-bulk
That should really let all the different species have a real chance. Idk

Thank you

If you have already split the cultures up I wouldn't put them in one grain jar.

What you could do, is put them each in a grain jar.  Run shoe boxes and see how they do.  And then save your favorites for production.

Then you are also not putting all of your eggs in one basket, or having to go through another step of cloning if you don't want. If they're really isolates, as in a dikaryon culture by itself.  There's no point in cloning anyway.

I don't really like to clone pans, so this is generally what I do with them.  Run out a couple of cultures and keep my favorite.

Should I be worried about my coir? It's coco bliss. I seen powdery white spots on 2 of my bricks. I had trich issues with a few grows using this batch, but I assumed it must be my spawn even though it looked healthy. 2 separate bricks. Could it be the coir?








Bucket tek will kill any molds



I was seeing some mold the other day, 4-5 days after the bucket. Eco Earth brand. There may have been some foreign material in there though. Not a very good brand, I hear. Maybe I can pasteurize it and save it.

better of sterilizing instead of trying to hover at 160 for an hr.

although neither is necessary

I made up 2 bricks of eco earth coir, had to postpone using it for about a week, but didnt have any problems. There was a seed in there that germinated during that time.


Speaking of making things ahead of time, I am thinking about making up some grain jars since I have time. I don't need them right now. Is that a bad move to make? Using unmodded lids.

If properly sterilized, and if filters don't fail (not a concern in your case), they will last until they dry out. Months, by some members' reports.

It happens, grain jars sitting around, it's all good. That way you'll know if it is truly sterile and that the lid filters are working :awesomenod:

Right now I am colonizing grain jars that are 6 months old and the PE-6 seems to love them. Visually they seemed a tad drier than when they came out of the hopper, and wetter on the bottom from the sitting.
I always use modified lids.

So what's the worst way to store spore prints?
Think it would be fine to have it folded up and just sit on your computer desk for a few months? Is it worth it to try and scrape onto several agar plates?

I put a super old LC syringe of blue oyster on some agar plates and let them grow out a bit. Then half of them started getting super yellow on some spots, what do y'all think of this?🤔

As of right now that’s where mine are at and they did fine when I put them to agar.

Any thoughts on this?

Does this thing look like it could be accompanied by something unwanted?

The center of it makes me worry.
