I have some TTBVI plates growing out and wanted to ask which of these two options should I put the plates too for colonization. From what I have read and been told they do not do as well on oats.

Popcorn or Finch bird seed shown below.

I have TTBVI on oats, rye & wheat at a 50/25/25 ratio. I have no issue with it. If I was home I’d snap a pic of the jar. They’ve been in my cult fridge since July and still look great. I’m preparing to spawn them in the next week or so.

If it were me I'd take the time to prep some jars of all three and see for myself, that said, I have already done that and popcorn is the safe route to take in my opinion, but I've had good results with popcorn, wheat and canary seeds.

Hello guys, I'm a noob and have started a batch of GT PF-tek some 10 days ago.
The spores were from a spore print from a (supposedly) trusted source, and ive since made a LC that im pretty sure has blackpin mold floating on top of it.
These are the pictures of a jar(all of them look like that)
Can they be saved?

I have a bunch of vynile gmoves, but not sterile (written on box).

Should i still use those ?
If yes, should i wash / sterile those ? If yes, how ?

I ve red some threads telling to wash those with isopropyl alcohol, but that doesn t seem like a bright idea with you know, the open flame to torch the loop / scalpel ?

I might be dumb but i m trying to not become a human torch, i doubt they ll hire me for the fantastic 4 two :grin:

So after my fuck up (i m actually laughing at my own stupidity, i guess we all learn the hard way :tongue2: ) :

Can spores germinate IN agar and grow myc ?

How do you store inoculated plates in a humid and hot country ? Ac room ?

Ty




I'm in South Texas it's pretty hot and humid on year-round basis. I just wrapped my plates and store them in a cabinet and room temperature. Or on my shelf with my other cult supplies. Sometimes an issue box on the Shelf just to keep things organized. Same goes for my unanoculated plates. Point is  you don't really have to do anything special.

They last along time like that.

What do you mean by streak them again ? Open those, take some spores from the print, streak ?
Or streak the plate hoping it does put the spores at the top ?

Ty



Put more spores in there, any agar hot enough to be liquid is likely hot enough to damage what u placed in there




@cronicr. I got a question related to this.  Ive actually been wondering about it for a while now. If something like hot agar could damage/kill the spores.

How come it's okay when faht runs a spore  print or swab through a PC cycle.

I've been trying to figure out how's  that's possible.

Cause people  frequently warn about heat and damaging or killing spores.

Is it not hot enough in the pc?

I'm finally giving in and adding synthetic filters to my jars. I was pc'ing the jars with the lid flipped and covered with foil. In the spirit of keeping things unmodified, can I cut out a disc the size of the lid and place it between the ring and the flipped lid? Do I still need to foil it before pc'ing? How hard is it to  remove the lid with the filter in the way? Am I better off just modifying the lid?

Not cron, but we all know that faht is a wizard. Still, are you sure that he runs spores through PC cycle? I could be wrong, but that sounds like a misunderstanding to me. Swabs and foil prior to swabbing and printing, sure. Once there are spores involved I suspect noting goes into the PC.

If I am wrong, I am interested to find out more. @fahtster ???

🤔. Why cut the disc? Place the disc between the ring & the flipped lid as you usually would. Some discs have a smooth & fuzzy side - fuzzy side down, against the flipped lid. Filter out, not exposed to the grains & moisture. Keep the foil during the PC run (which are reusable many times). 

Unmodified? You don't wish to punch/drill holes in the lid? Why?

But, same scenario as you have, except you'd have added protection if you wish not to drill holes in lids.

Stipe started a thread about pasteurizing spores, and there was some experimentation in there with positive germinations.

But that's different than a PC cycle.

It was a boiling to sterilise the jars(before i bought a PC), and i could've been more careful handling the still air box.
i guess i fucked it not sterilising the jars well enough.
I made some (prety bad) agar plates so i'll see by the end of the week if theire any good.
Thank you for your input, i was hoping they were salvageble... better luck next time
