I recall seeing a mushroom family tree of sorts, that showed the lineage of the various cubes and other varieties. My search skills are failing, any ideas?

Lemme see if I got this right. You have agar test jars 1 month old and no contams. You have a grain control jar and nothing growing. So obviously it's what you're sticking in there that's the problem. Try to bring your culture to be the only organism in the dish FIRST. Then take the agar to your grain.

Let's see some plates of what you're sending to grain.

Its hard to take pics on this agar jars.



Here is one i sacruface inspecting circles.


Here is 2 bacterial i transfer away.
I think first one doesnt have visible contamination but i see its not good at all so i transfer

I wonder how they were harvested? They don't have any blue color I can see even in the damaged cap. The non wild bred ones usually bruise really easily for me its impossible to harvest without a little blue color are they less potent or am I harvesting wrong?

I'm curious lol I know what Team Clingwrap is but what is Team IHOP?

It's when you get all set up to pour a stack of plates and have a brain glitch that results in pouring agar on top of the stack like a pile of pancakes and syrup.  It's not as exclusive of a club as you think

I have four or five fully colonized plates but no grain to put them in right now and I'm going to be gone for the next few days.

Can I put them in the fridge to slow them down or should I just let them do their thing?

I would just pack them up with extra clingwrap and keep them in room temperature. Every time I put plates in the fridge they condensate a lot and end up pooling on the mycelium

NotImlay said:

I agree to leave them out, but you can put them upside down (in the refrigerator) to keep the condensation off the mycelium.

I'm about to goto bed for the night, should I harvest the ones with broken veils and leave the rest for the night? Or just leave them all? Or if I leave them will there be a big spore mess in about 8 hours?

It wont be a full on money shot of spores, but maybe some. Personally, I'm all about reducing work load and would just wait til they're all open so I can harvest and dehydrate at once. But it's personal preference.
