I often wonder about the hours when a man sits alone, watching the smoke of a cigarette, thinking. I wonder what great things have come alive from such hours. When a man thinks, there is a spot of fire alive in his mind---and it is proper that he should have the burning point of a cigarette as his one expression."

PDA is just fine for growing mush myc. Some strains however tend to get cottony or very arieal when grown on this media. But once you move them to grain they improove.

PDA will. Add a 3 grams of light dry malt & it will go better, IMHO.

To this

? pint Canning Jars & (Fool Proof) Potato Agar
? Slice 1/8 inch thick or grate 1 potato into 2 cups distilled water.
? Boil for 30 minutes, strain, add distilled water to make 1 Liter.
? Add 2 tbsp agar, 1 tbsp dextrose or corn syrup, 1/2 tsp nutritional yeast.
? Simmer while stirring slowly for 10 minutes.
? Pour into 1/2 pints (about ? to 5/8 in. deep)
? Place on lids, not tight, and pressure cook at 15 psi for 30 minutes (cooking too long may/will caramelize the sugars).
? Cool gradually so you don't boil the agar. Tilt pressure cooker as it cools so you will get a slant on the agar. (if you want one)
? Once cooled, tighten lids & tape over lid hole with alc swabbed Scotch brand clear storage tape.
