got some lc from mycopath (with filter). its growing well, but there is no marble or magnet or anything inside the jar to help break things up.
how can these jars be shaken up to break up the mycelium up enough to suck into a syringe?
it seems that all vendors prepare their LC without any sort of shredder in them - this must be an issue others who have bought LC have dealt with - what do you do?

thats gonna be a PITA.
they really need to put magnetic stirr bars in their LC's.
do you have a glove box or a still air box?
if you do...
I'd sterile a marble or a magnetic stirr bar...
then drop it into the jar...
inside the glove box or still air box.

vendor lc? whats that lol. when you are about to suck up some mycelia.. if it clogs shoot it back out and repeat until you have enough. if its sealed and has two sealed injection points u should probably use a second syringe filled with polyfill wrapped in foil and pced for 15 min as a pressure equalizer.

exactly. what good is lc if it can't be sucked into a syringe?
can these jars be shaken at all? i would think many purchase LC from vendors and have the same problem...

Even if it doesnt have an agitor, you should still be able to get anough myc water to be usable, i have done it several times before, every lc i have made i forgot. The last LC i still managed to get atleast 1/2 a syringe of myc water. You could visiby see there was plenty.
If it gets stuck, expunge the syringe and start sucking again, repeat until you have enough.
You can always start up a new LC with an agitor, i wouldnt risk openig up the jar to add one, the chances of being keep a sterilised agitator sterile while transfering is very slim.
