Is this enough mycelium for inoculation?

After 2 weeks of waiting the mycelium didn't look too thick however I went ahead and made syringes.




Does this look like enough mycelium to inoculate 10cc per spawn bag? or since there is not much mycelium should I use majority of the syringe per spawn bag?
your help is greatly greatly appreciated

when i did my lc it looked a lot thicker. all the extra water may throw off water content.

one of these was an LC
Which do you think it was?

well man it took two weeks for so little mycelium I figured I'd give it a shot...
Do you think I should try and eliminate some of the excess water or should I make my substrate dryer?

I think you should incubate it for two more weeks.

what did you use for your lc? i have tried karo and had results simaler to yours. go to a farmers market and buy a jar of honey, one pint jar will last a long long time if thats all ur using it for. not sure why but i always seem to have great luck with honey, my last jars were all fluffy inside in less than a week, that was lc to lc which is always fast, but even in the case of tisue cultures it was a week and still much thicker than your pic. i would take some of what you have in that container and squirt some in to a honey jar

how long does it usually take for karo LC's to complete?
and I think I'll do all of the above, I'll incubate what I haven't used, noc up some honey and noc up a spawn bag coprised of straw, brewers yeast and brf
