clone them?

would that bring good results?

I wouldnt through a whole one it. it will be covered in contaminants.

Would be an interesting experement.

Id recomend taking a tissue sample from the middle and drop that into an LC.

Make sure to practice good sterile technique.

glovebox
gloves
alchol cleaned gloved hands
flame sterilised tools

like tear some out from the middle of it?

could I just dunk it in bleach and then rinse it off?

I may do this just to see what happens - it's not like I would lose anything even if it failed, so...

and anything inoculated with it would have more consistent results than multi spore.

You don't just tear it out - you gotta be extremely sterile doing this, and get a piece of just the inner core w/ a needle.  I've heard that the chances for contamination are much higher than just using spore solution for an LC.

like shoving a needle through the middle?

and if it did get contam. I could just do it again, and again, and again, till I got it right, nothing to lose really. Don't have a shortage of myc tissue.

but would the bleach thing work?

Contamination is a much higher risk.

Using a sterilised syringe of water to take a core sample after wiping the outside with alcohol is one method.

Also, you can split it in have and use a sterilised scalpel to take a peice of tissue from the middle.

Soaking in a bleach 10:1 water bleach solution can help clean up the tissue sample if you have contamination problems.

The bleach wont kill the mycelium, just shock it a bit. It will recover and continue to grow,

k guys, thanks for the help

I'll do this, and update w/pics.

It will be interesting to see if it turns out any different than multi-spore...
