how cloning works
    #7544324 -

well i made a few successful agar clones.
great.  easy.
but WHO EXACTLY KNOWS how it works??
i got a monster pin thats going to be a monster shroom,
but im so confused!!!!! :frown:
does it mean that once you transfer a wedge to spawn and inoculate then fruit.
will all the shrooms that pop up be like just like  the one i transfered to agar?
same size? ect. when i hear cloning thats what i think of.

btw i searched articles on agar but only found how to teks

I think that is generally how it is, but I wouldn't think they would all be exactly the same. Now if you cloned the shorted shroom then fruited and cloned that one's shortest and so on, you'd get short shrooms I know that

Yeah, basicly you get a sort of "substrain" isolate the has common fruiting capabilities. The goal is to isolate a good fruitng strain that way you get consistant fruits and potency along with more even pinsets.

sometimes yes, sometimes no.

not every fruit is born of a single strain.
strains that have not 'mated' are capable of collaborating to
produce a single fruit or cluster of fruits.

on agar, with clone tissue, often you can see distinct separate
sectors grow and from from the biopsied tissue. 
so as I see it (and who knows if I even have a clue what I'm
talking about...) if you're lucky you can clone an isolate, but most
of the time you'll just be reducing the strains to two of them or so.
fruits found in the wild have a greater chance of being born of
a greater number of strains.  so you would have an even smaller
chance of cloning an isolate from the wild.  home fruits would be
your best bet.

so after cloning the fruit to agar, further isolate from there, and
grow out each sector on it's own and fruit side by side.  keep the
one you like the best and toss the other one.

(if I even know what I'm talking about... :naughty: )

lately I cloned a PE fruit that heavily sporulated...
the cloned culture grows produced about 1 in 200 fruits that
produced spores....
so it's not always as easy as it might sound.
time to go into further isolation....

very helpful advice mitch
and very interesting how a cloned PE that sporulated still didnt produce any that did.
