old spawn and cyan germination
    #5953845 - 08/11/06 01:22 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

This is two questions i have a bunch of old spawn...tak mt. cubie and some other random cubie strain, the spawns from back in November Ive been using it for the past few months now and it seems to be getting weaker it wont colonize my horse poo pans all the way but it will start. all temps are the same from my other successful batches. I cant figure out the problem 5 pans have not colonized all the way after almost 2 weeks I'm using about 1 quart or 1/2 quart per rectangle pan...Does spawn weaken with age or is something like my Ph off?

Also i can not get my pan cyan's to germinate on wbs Ive tryed like 5 times with different syringes from different vendors what else could i try that might better my chances...would grass seed or corn work? Just poo?

I think the Ph of my water is off tested water from squeezed poo and it was around 8 so I'm thinking the mycelia starts growing and makes the poo even more acidic so growth stops...

8 is on the sweet side, so as the mycelium moves it more towards acid, it neutralizes it. That isn't your problem. Your problem is old spawn. Get rid of it and use fresh spawn.
