My lc test plates are never photogenic. It’s harder than you might think  to place a single drop in the center; instead it seems i’ve squirted all over the agar. Stupid mycelium clogging the needle.🤡. I will of course, take transfers to new plates but it seems wasteful to not use the remainder of the syringe.

Thanks BW! I like that Idea. I don’t make liquid culture often (4 times in 3 years) and when I do I just pour it out of the jar. It’s even harder to pour a single drop. At any rate my transfers from the test plate look clean and I too have growth on grain.

I’m pretty Jazzed for this one👍

seems like they must know what they are doing to create an interspecies hybrid. I can't really speak on the case of mycology, but at least with plants such things require a lot of trial and error as well as proficiency and competence. I put the isolate on agar and am waiting to see what turns up, but the claims of hybrid vigor would lead me to believe that this should be a robust cultivar that benefits from the genetics of both parents
