Very frustrating, got a full box of matured Tapala, healthy and good looking, but seems that there some genetic error and no one gives any spores and already too old and dying

I don’t know man, I’ve read that anything in section zapotecorum should be pushed hardddd.
Seems they are most potent when , well, they look my my post above you.
I’d say you got at least another week.
Let them rock homie.

πŸ˜ƒ I haven’t read but printed different of them, lots. Tapala is different, them like bispo gives spores somewhere on begging and, I got some spores from those on the picture but not regular way by covering with wet paper towel and not that much as usually. Each Zapotecorum is very different from other one,  appearance, speed of grow, shape… that’s my biggest love along with pan bispo❀️

Looking spicy, @Soloist
:tendshroom:

@Noah, nice specemins again!

I got a few caps of Texolo printing. Spotted 1 fungus gnat grub in my tub, followed his trails, but after that I tried to gently dry all walls of the tub off etc and in the process I hit a fruit whos wet cap got torn (pic 2, top right, also visible where the paper towel dragged on another caps edge) Other than that, some have started to turn their colour which is exciting! I don't think any are aborting as any damage is discernable to me from the middle
->outward bluing of caps as maturation hits etc.
At least, I hope so...

One stipe taken for cloning from, just waitng for plates to set.








^On that angle, I can't help see a =] on the cap :lol:

The best result with Texolo was in automated grow box with steady very slight air flow, constant dense misting 10/10 min and tray itself was with drainage on bottom

Yeah I have been reccomended dreamer tub setup even, I've no doubt as to the effectiveness of such a setup, but personally I'm not looking for automation on my tubs right now.

Here are some final pics, but my Texolo tub had more larvae of fungus gnats and a few visable adults & attempts to keep that under wraps (wiping the tub walls, inadvertantly smacking fruits etc) led to maybe 40% aborts.
In retrospect, some were aborting while other matured which gave me a false impression/hope they were all fine.

They did give spores, 2 clones, and a very generous dry weight that I looke forward to trying soon, so I'm happy- just miss seeing them on my desk every day.
:spoiled:

A day or so after these pics, loads more little ones were blackened, but without having gotten that way gradually or radiating from the centr.


















Still beautiful specimens IMO.
I broke the sub into pots in the garden lest it bring FG's everywhere in here, and planted with some marigolds & dahlias, high doubt that their little setup out there will stay humid enough as is- but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

Zapotecorum VC/ Tlalnelhuayocan going to grain tonight and a Texolo clone will be soon.

I’m trying to grow zaps for the first time. I had five litre jars of colonised rye that I mixed with coir in four tubs of 7 litre each. Each tub its own jar, and the extra jar was divided over two of them. That resulted in two tubs of about 1:3 spawn to coir ratio, and two tubs of about 1:3.5. After about 5 days all tubs looked like this:



Thin wispy mycelium that reminds me an awful lot of mold, and 5 days seems quick to me, even more so with zaps. Is this indeed mold? Or is this what actual zap colonised bulk substrate looks like?

The jars were inoculated with a single Agar plate that looked very clean and beautiful and definitely not like mold at all. It was a T1 plate from a spore print. The colonised jars all looked identical. I bit different to cube grain spawn. Tomentose, a bit drier than what I’m used to with cubes, easier to break, but nothing that made me worry really. I did not use any nutes or additions to my bulk substrate, and the grain jars were 100% colonised. I also let them consolidate for about a week before spawning to bulk. The coir was not pasteurised, but hydrated with hot water in a cooler. The prepared coir was stored in the cooler for about two weeks.

If it is indeed mold, where did it most likely go wrong? I hardly ever get mold contamination in grain jars, so I if all four grain jars were actually contaminated with the same mold because of sloppy technique doesn’t sound very likely to me.

Weird question…can Zaps feel bendy  if they are completely dry?

I feel stupid asking, but, I’ve never had an issue dehydrating any fruits…been drying at lower temps these last few runs (ABV, Jack Frost) like 90-120f range @ Like 24 hours.
No issues.

But some of these smaller fruits, and I mean like dried 1mm thick stipes, are bending without snapping. 

My gut tells me the spiral growth pattern on the hollow stipe is playing a part…the bigger, chunkier fruits feel normal.

Anyone else experience this or I just buggin’??

Definitely temperature, I tried drying my Papuana fruits on 40Β° recently, after 72 hours I gave up, they wouldn't snap. 4 Hours at 60Β°C and they snap fine.

All my zapo's get the snap if I run my dehydrator at 70Β°C for 24 hours. Is it possible that drying at lower temperature means they don't snap even when cracker dry? I have no clue :lol:

Mine is almost a blueprint of what Mico Zapotec does.

- 30% Coir
- 30% Straw
- 15% Hwfp
- 10% Cow Manure Compost
- 10% Vermiculite
-  5% Rice Hulls

If I'm doing AIO and letting it colonize under sterile conditions, yes, but usually I spawn colonized grains to pasteurized substrate at 1:4, and I mean actual 1:4. So if I use 1200ml of grain spawn I mix it with 4800ml of substrate :awesomenod:

Myco quarts never made sense to me :lol:

Pasturizing it sounds a lot easier than sterilizing. Thank you very much.

It's the same process really, and I feel sterilizing is easier because you don't have to think about things like monitoring temperature, make sure the substrate is getting enough air and you can't let pasteurized substrate sit long and it needs GE.

That said, it's not rocket science and if you have equipment to do it most of the work is making the substrate :rockon:
