I will be soliciting 4 of the more experienced grower's here at the Shroomery to test it for me...here pretty soon. I've put you on the list...and I do appreciate the help. I'm too close to the project and will need objective opinions...although the data looks promising. I believe it shouldn't have trouble with other substrates, but it has been selectively developed for Rye Grain substrates. So it would be nice if several substrate mixes were attempted. What I have found so far on Rye Grain is...substrate/ mycelium inoculation to full colonization of spawn bags is about 8 days at 85 degrees. Casing (1/2-inch Ryche Mix) to first pins 5 to 7 days. Pin set to harvest 5 days.

But I am not sure how stable it is after only 30 generations...the key characteristic indicators were not met till generation 20.

Anyway thanks for the input. For those that want to view my lab notes on this project and other projects thatare on-going, they will be posted at my new website this weekend (Mage's EntheoMycology Site). I just published it this week and it needs a lot of work...but I have several things to share and a site seemed appropriate. Here's the link:

What's up with that mycelium? Is it from spores or transfers from another dish? Or is that just how B+ grows? Isn't it kind of weird looking? I'm just wondering because the mycelium in my petris (GT's and azures) looks nothing like that, it is thicker and denser and looks altogether different. Nice work tho!

As far as healthy mycelium goes, it displays strong ropey growth when under proper conditions. It was not my intent to allow this too happen...I had planned to process the petrii sooner, but I'm waiting for a replacement HEPA filter for my flow hood and I didn't want the hassle of dealing with my old glove box...and I didn't want to move it to my Myco Chamber, it would defeat the purpose...but next time I will use Parafilm and see what happens.

I'll post some picks of various strains at my new web page soon...although to me the mycelium of cubies all looks the same to me. Where the difference will be seen is between Azure, Cubies and Tampanensis.
