Agar and non-fruiting substrains
    #8121600 - 03/08/08 10:39 PM (16 years, 10 months ago)

What is the incidence of non-fruiting substrains when you do agar isolations. I keep reading about this particular occurance, and I'm curious b/c I'm doing my first agar work now with 4 cubensis strains. What's the likelihood of isolating a non-fruiting myc, and is their any way to know without getting all the way through my spawning process?

***edited b/c the thread title was vague.

No!

Isolation is a process with an undefined end.
You select the fastest and most rhizomorphic looking parts of mycelium in hope that they will produce the best pinset and the best fruits.

However, you never know what's gonna come...

It's extremely rare for rhizomorphic isolates to be non-fruiting.
