I've got some nice looking plates coming along that were on WO agar.  Question is should T1 go to WO also or should it be more nutritious?

i've been freezing my grain water for years, no noticeable difference.  I don't think that 'resistant starches' is substantiated...  freezing doesnt modify starch...  Also i never strain my GSW.  I MIGHT exclude the last little bit of a pour that has some sediment, but it doesnt matter.  I am not going for clear agar, though.


Freezing does modify starch… a basic web search will show this. Mycelium process digestible and resistant starches differently.

If you have such a germination plate, do you wait for mycelium to grow bigger, or would you make transfers now, each spore clump to the new plate?

Personally I'd split them up. Each distinct culture will have their own performance, I'd prefer to let them develop independently / without competition.

This is a transfer from a germ plate; it has a brother from the same time. I did a transfer from brother, and I swear got a MOLD scent from outside the SAB. Sharp like white mold on an orange. So I opened this one and sniffed it a week ago. A day later had Mrs. Bluescreen sniff it. No mold smell, nice smell. It was around the ridge visible at that point, been unwrapped since then, and fully grown out since. Crazy. Maybe it's fuckin mold anyway 'cause I sent another transfer to grains when this plate was done and ain't got jack growing.



Edit- I opened that jar as the grains had gone a lil mushy upon shaking, cautious sniff and it smelled like cooked grains. Gone now.

If you have a 100mm plate fully colonized, how many grain jars would you (not could you) typically inoculate with that 1 plate?

4-8 but I only do 1 wedge to each jar because I don't trust myself :lol:

99% of mushroom cultivation is agar work, the other 99% is clean spawn.

:lol:

For the most part I do 4 jars from the same 55mm plate and I don't let my plates get 100% colonized as that has the small chance of a contamination from the gap just going dormant on top of the mycelium and when it hits the grains, germinate, but I'm paranoid :uhoh:
