Cloning Question (PIC)

I plan on doing a clone from this cluster of GT on WBS, as per the 9er Tek Blender Clone and I have a question: These are fairly small and to make matters harder, the stems are hollow. It will be hard to get a good amount of flesh from the inner stem. Should I split the cap and get my culture from there, and proceed to drop that in the blender? Or is there more flesh available then I am aware of even with hollow stems? Here is a pic of the cluster I'm shooting for:

Are you "cloning" on agar , or planning to make a liquid culture from the flesh you harvest ?
If cloning on agar , YES even the smallest piece of flesh taken from inside the mush stem will work . And if doing this way , there is no need to blend it at all , just harvest small piece , lay it on the surface of the agar , and watch it grow .

All the TEKs that I read said to peel teh cap-skin back and get a sample of flesh from there. (Might be better, or safer.)
Do both!

Thanks anyways, but if you read the link you'd know that I'm planning on making a mycelium slur out of the flesh in the blender, not agar work.

One reason they take the inside is cause it is sterile and the outside isnt. IMHO you dont need to blend, you can also drop a piece (or slice that in 4 parts or sumtin) in the liquid substrate. You might dip it in dilluted h202 before that, about 0,3% solution. Which is 1 part 3% h2o2 on 10 parts water.
But I think for development agar is better then LQ. To make inoculant I think LQ could be great. I am having trouble getting the thick mycelium in the syringe though.......
Good luck.

I cloned an Enokie once from inside the stem and the stem was about as thick as a pencil lead!
a bit as big as this ( = )
turned into this...
