Anyone ever seen something like this in a jar? Inoculate is a cyan and it's only like 75% at the point of the picture which was several days ago. The growth hasn't changed color / structure or grown.

Psilo cyan is likely aggressive enough to deal with whatever it is, likely bacteria. Pan cyan is a bit more finicky

true true, I've just never seen someone say cyans and are referring to psilocybe. They are pans, specifically sent as Bunnell. I have many jars so it's not a big deal, truly it just weirded me out as it looks more like lions mane plins.

Nope, top fruiting means you're fruiting, my man.  Keep that top coir fruity.

Hey yall, as the winter season comes to a close (5 weeks till I pack my gear!)
I'll be checking back in here atleast a couple times a week as I get my seedlings planted, if anyone wants to donate some gourmet cultures to get going with this spring my inbox is open!
I wanna put my head down as soon as I get home. Ideally get some lc and bags ready to bring home and fruit right away. Hope everyone had a great winter! Its good to be getting back into the mushroom mindset


Welcome back Tryp! Good to see you back!

Hey y'all I prepped some WBS using a no-soak method (throwback to Fooman's Tek)

The grain ended up being incredibly dry. I used 3 of the jars to inoculate with a fully colonized clean agar plate. This was my first ever agar to grain transfer and needless to say I butchered it. I did it on 12/21. Jars have taken forever to colonize. I shook one jar at around 70% but it's taking forever to recover and hit 100%. I assume it's mostly because the WBS is too dry. I deal with white mold contamination issues too so it's very hard to tell what is contaminated or not. Below are pics of the jars, the two on the left in the first pic I just shook, and the right one was shaken like 5-6 days ago. It appears they are not reaching full colonization. I think I may toss this batch and use properly hydrated grain. Just sharing this in case anyone has any advice. Thanks!

Thanks for all the helpful advice.

Apologies for my sacrilegious acts! I appreciate everyone being kind and letting me have fun in my delusions. :grin:

It was good dialing in my coir's field capacity at a small scale on the brighterside from my sacrilegious experiment.

It is growing like that because of verticilum?





Can you see any on the rest of the tub?

I already pulled some tissue samples.and I'm growing it out, I'll throw it away if it's contaminated but idk what I'm looking for. I tried looking up verticilum and it doesn't look like anything I can see

Also does that affect their potency?

Thanks

I just started making agar plates so that I keep busy while I wait for the weather to warm up.

I am sure I'll get some bacteria growing in the plates at some point and I am curious, instead of just tossing them in the trash can, can I put them in my garden?

Has anyone had any luck growing outdoors in their garden with agar only?

It wouldn't be worth it to try. Clean up your culture and expand it with grain and put that in your garden.

1st photo... The fruits look absolutely normal and good. 2nd photo, a patchy but perfectly normal looking tub to my eyes (no gross infection and you clearly have some good fruits) and you don't even have widespread aborts or mutants.

What were you pointing out?

Spawned a bunch of jars last night, and going to make more today.

Do y'all actually wash or rinse them in these cases?

Wash them all thoroughly. It's better if things are kept clean in this hobby, prevents issues. At least that's what I do.
