This is your problem most likely. Show us a picture of this tool.


I don't understand why everyone wants a furnace filter disaster and not a proven and cheap still air box.

Fucking baffling.

I can't understand why anyone would drive a lowered nissan sentra with a spoiler when they could drive a civic.

For me it is because I have a tiny penis.
:rofl:

P.S. I don't have a lowered sentra.
FFU is more like a corvette and a proper flow hood is the bugatti. Don't need either, but I would rather have one of those than a kick in the balls.

All joking aside, I have a friend with a beat to shit 2006 civic that can get anywhere on a mountain that a 4x4 can :lol:

For those of you in the Oregon area that know the MHNF, it can get to badger lake.

Quick update/question about my grain jars. I have 13 jars going currently, in various stages of colonization. (I inoculated them at different times)

I posted these first two jars a couple of days ago before shaking them. This is what they look like post shake plus a couple of days. Do they look dry? I know there's nothing to do but I'm just hoping that I can get some opinions about how healthy they look.


These next two jars were inoculated more recently and I think they're getting to the point where they're almost ready for a shake. Same questions basically... How do they look?


These are all SGT from agar.

Thanks in advance for the feedback, friends!

The two bottom jars look good to me. Very nice growth, I'm jealous. I don't know if my eye is playing tricks on me but the grains in the 2nd jar from the 1st pic look drier compared to the 2nd jar from the second pic. That's just my opinion though.

Did you cut a grain or two throughout cooking to make sure the interior was fully hydrated? Are all of those jars using grain from one cook batch? How tight are those unmodified lids?

All jars from the same batch.

I tightened the unmodified lids and then back them off about a quarter to a third of a turn.

The top two jars were exhibiting growth that was very similar to if not even more extensive than the bottom two jars. I shook them up and now that growth is sort of evenly distributed throughout. You can see a piece of agar in the top left photo as well, but I don't see anything that looks like frank contamination to me.

Anything that I can do at this point to help them along, or just LITFA?

I was having hard time with doing agar to grain bags so I had some hepa filters laying around and decided to do a pseudo Gordo tek one.

It’s ugly I know… but I tested it with a bunch of different open agar plates and no contamination so I assumed as ugly as it was it was still functional. I might jut bring my SAB back out and try a couple runs with that and see if it fixes it.

Yea I see what you’re saying but when I flipped the plate around and shined a light through it taking a look at it from the back I saw no dots or anything suspicious.

Yeah I think I found the problem...

why wouldn't you just build a laminar flow hood if you have a good filter?

or... what kind of filter even is that?

Looks a bit wet, and the appearance of the shaken myc.  Tough to tell much from a pic like this, with the light reflecting.  Hopefully it's fine - just wait and see how it recovers.

With a sab just seal your bags before inoculation , use your agar to make lc

That right there is your problem, throw it out. 

Make and use a SAB if you want to stop your contamination problems.

Is there any other way to test if this flowhood is usable or not? I did the flame test and it seemed good. Other than buying was one of those particle readers, is there no other way?

Re: Ask Quick Questions, Get Quick Answers [Re: cronicr]
    #29466843 -

Yea you're right. I just wanted to keep the steps minimal so the chances of contamination are limited. I do have 3 jars of LC in the fridge I might just keep running until I can get this workspace figured out.

Flame test tells you nothing other than that air is moving.

Real flow hoods and FFUs work because they push out laminar sterile air flow. You will never get that with a box fan and a random filter.

You need to read the first post of https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27615199 in its entirety.
