Above my pay grade, all I can say is that ain't healthy cube myc. I'd recommend focusing on what good looks like vs identifying specific contams.

yeah the white molds can be a real PITA to try and ID without growing out which... not recommended lol.

Speaking of growing out... idk wtf this is but it's the most ominous looking plate I've pulled in awhile. I get plenty of white molds and the occasional green but this is new.



you know it's bad when I parafilm a contam plate before binning it. whatever that is looks like it'd fuck me up.

In the interest of staying on topic, mail day, so got some new stuff to plates.

KSST (probably KSAT?), early gates, makilla gorilla, stone producer. Mix of dry agar, castellani, and smash wedge, so a bit of everything.

Thought it was interesting how the growth from these transfers is super rhizo from side of the wedge that was the leading edge of the previous culture. When taking a wedge, should I cut just behind the leading edge and then have the other two cuts go into blank agar vs towards the center of the culture?

MSS > AGAR  A little heavy handed on a couple woopsie. Sorry for blurry photos I need to clean up the hard water stains in these next PC.

All the same type, thinking I should make xfers from first pic since it has the smallest and least busy amount of mycelium?







Agar was PC'd on 9/13/2026 and none of my extra containers have shown signs of contam.

Those all look good. Don’t neglect top left of picture three, that is dense. Getting the most uniform as well from first pic is smart. I tend to 2x my agar transfers as well, but I make 70ish at a time. Need to make more actually.

What is your plan, agar to grain then bulk? Agar to li?

What sort of genes are these?

When you say top left of picture three, since it's already touching the sides of the container is that okay? I read that the sides have higher contam rate. Although if no contams look present or if present then I guess continually xfers would clean it up...?

Plan is agar to grain to bulk, yes. I want to eventually make LI, but still working on SAB technique.

Genes are GHOST which I believe is an albino golden teacher.

Yeah it is, should be at least. Some of that advice comes from regular agar plates, that are most likely to contaminate around there if the seal isnt good. Not really a scenario for your reusable ones. At least when I tried making regular agar plates, they all contaminated at edges first due to crappy tape job.


LI is convenient, as long as you have a truly clean plate and sterile water in a jar. It's not for making a master culture for longterm storage, more like use now.

My first attempt at cabin sequestration.


I received a beautiful smash wedge from the wonderful Nerdo and definitely contaminated it with bacteria myself trying, with much difficulty, to fish it out of the bag with a scalpel. I have a pair of tweezers set aside specifically for this kind of thing, but I just forgot to use them :facepalm3:

So in an attempt to fix my mistake I thought I'd try my hand at cabin sequestration. I can't say my first attempt was all that graceful, but hopefully I managed to keep all the nasties under the roof of the cabin. If not, I'll make some more plates and have another go of it. I considered trying trenching, but my plates always have so much condensation that it would have been more like a moat than a trench.

Whaddup Agar fans, a couple of clean T-1 plates for the eyes to gaze upon.  :laugh:

The T-2 Estero was for shits and giggles, I don't believe it was dirty, but the Bisporus just went to T2... that one may have a touch of mold, or old spore flakes that transferred over, but I'm just having a good time with it really.  All the best... no stress...

I feel like I still really have to practice taking pictures of plates. Never really feel like I get what I want :laugh:



Quite tomentose, but to me nothing really seems off-off. Thinking of maybe taking a transfer from 7 o'clock. But might also send some to see what's up.

These guys are getting transferred tomorrow.  Left is some bisporus I'm really excited to try out, middle x7x+ that's looking good from a tiny clone sample, and some great wild ochra on the right.

At least that's what I would do :strokebeard:

Vhagar Brown



Albino Eungella Australia Swab plate, bottom right seemed to have been cloned gill sample, but the rest might've been actual spores. Gonna try to transfer over 11 o clock.



This is Coyopolan Mexico, I still have another swab I did with the print. Pure mold, or weird mycelium?



Another plate

I'm tempted to put some of the bisporus to a half pint of grains; it's one transfer from spore, what do the experts think? Ah I know, I'll send it and see :rockon:. Gotta get some of these trays Faht's using.
