try again. and/or put the spores on agar. you'll have mushrooms soon :rockon:

pftek you use a syringe. did you make your own from the print? work in a sab, scrape a tiny bit of print onto agar. transfer til clean.

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


no prob! you sayin u scraped spores directly from the print into jar? even if you sterilized the jars properly and pf jars being more resistant to bacterial contams taking over, that method is not foolproof. definitely the move to put your spores to agar first. but sounds like your on the right path. good luck and update with some plate pics when they start germinating.

Your right rev.  I read it wrong.  I missed the part where he said set the vacuum sealed pouch of swabs aside and then PC everything. And then ge quickly slips the swabs into the PCd oven bags.

At first glance it appeared he was saying he puts the swabs in the vacuum so bad and everything he up he needs inside the oven bag and then pieces it all together. This was really confusing to me. But as you said he's a wizard so I just thought oh well it must be true.

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?


🤔. 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.



hole isnt neccesary. Put the filter under the lid and it acts almost like a 1 piece lid, and the thickness is enough ge

just wear gloves.  if you're worried about your prints being built up from pictures the efforts you're making are similar to "SWIM" posts in terms of being effective.

and for the record, everyone in a prohibited area should be doing this.  stop posting pics of your hands and tattoos and doing some dickhead cops job for them.

@Nancy thx for the tip on fuzzy and smooth. The filters I have are bigger than my lid and won't fit unless I cut them. There's no meaningful reason why I don't want to modify the lids since they get nasty and rusty anyway. To me, an unmodified lid is more multipurpose than a modified one even if I never use these for anything else.

@trypt under the lid, like between the lid and the jar? Does it get nasty in contact with grains, myc, contam?

does this plate look alright?  the inoculant is so messy because this is rhizo mycelium I scraped off the inside of a master grain jar and I couldnt get it to stick to the agar :smile:

I'm only really concerned about the two little bullseyes.  bacterial?  I inoculated about a dozen plates with squat mac and 8-9 have grown out completely clean so I'm pretty happy with that.  it's more than I need to keep the genetics going and inoculate the next batch of jars.

Is it correct to remove plins off an agar plate before putting that agar plate to grain?

Wow, that’s interesting! So I have plates with plins that grew out pretty big. They aren’t rotten, but they def seen their day. You think I could just toss those in? I was thinking to just remove them before dumping the plate in.

They'll just revert back to mycelium

Another option is to drop em on a fresh plate.  Gives you something more to play with!

Thanks KB! Have done that with the smaller, fresher plins with great results! I guess from what you guys are saying though is I can not only drop the older larger ones in grain along with the agar, but clone them on plates too!
