Nice bump!
No it doesn't matter the size. I think wide mouth pint is preferred. But, I am just blowing smoke.

Beginner friendly method for lc is to make pf cakes and knock them up with a clean spore syringe....have a nice day.  :wink:

It will last in the fridge for around 6-12 months without a problem.

This is not old, outdated or a bad idea.

LC's have always been and will always be another viable and fantastic way to experiment with mycology.

Everyone is jumping on a bandwagon here, and talking about a concept IN THEORY without giving any credit to the fact that, out of hundreds of liquid cultures IN PRACTICE I had almost zero contamination rates.

I'm not the only one -

Hey guys, I feel like a broken record here, but quit hating on the LC's... Yes, I agree - the best way to start an LC with confidence, is with an agar wedge.

But this wasn't written with that in mind, its just supposed to be a really basic tek in order to appeal to newcomers who may be partially interested/nervous starters to the hobby, without much equipment, in the hope that it sparks some success and interest to encourage people to pursue it further.

I used LC's for many many years, with spores and core biopsies for cloning and had a very very high success rate. I never nocced up huge batches, so never bothered doing test jars and without a lie I honestly had close to 100%, very rarely did I get a contamination.

Thanks - now back to your regularly shceduled shroomery.... :smile:

Thanks for making that post Otto. I really can't stand all the hate recently regarding LC's. I've also never had any problems with this method and I happen to love it.

There's really no hate. If you're good enough to make a clean LC you're not the person asking questions about it. LC is just fine there's no hate in the private journals among the veteran cultivators but LC is completely useless for the new grower and it will only serve to slow them down and possibly even make them leave this hobby if they don't have success. LC is so damn easy that you could figure it out and know if it would work for you if you know better but most people don't and that's why there is hate because the only people asking are the very people that shouldn't be making one. Sure that's a broad generalization but seriously LC really doesn't have a place with cubensis.

I love LC for exotics and right now have 5 on the go. But LC needs to be done under strict sterile conditions and to me things like using ms solution and having open inoculation holes in a lid sound so sloppy. Not using an SAB for that is even worse. I use lids with SHIP and whatman filters,  inoculate with clean agar wedges and use 60 cc syringes to cutndown on the number of times the SHIP needs to be pierced.

I have had success with LC. I have also had fail. I learned quickly that the difference between the two was proper sterile tek, and fortunatly I had agar to teach it to me. The problem I have with LC is the notion that they are a shortcut.  They are a powerful tool that needs to be treated with respect.

there's just better cleaner ways to do it than LC hands down, like g2g and culturing.

I got no problem with people asking questions.  If I jumped on someone for simply asking a question I apologize. But I make no apologies for calling out a tek which advocates using spores to inoculate, having holes exposed or opening a lid in open air. These things might have been considered an acceptable practice ten years ago, but we know better today :shrug: I also dislike the notion that LC is "noob friendly". Agar is noob friendly.  If you can get agar down then you are ready for LC.
