yes you can its called grain to grain transfers (g2g) and is much much faster than other inoculation methods. break up the colonized jar pour some into the grain/second jar lids back on and give the second jar a shake to break off bits of myc. and mix the colonized and uncolonized grains around...
roger rabbits lets grow mushrooms videos. Canndo and Javadog are each full of knowledge. You could also just do stones, mycelium masses grown invitro in jars just inoculate and wait for 2-3 months after full colonization or up to a year break up and harvest when youre ready and dump the grains...
after the stretch is done the plant wont want nearly as much nitrogen so around then gauge by leaf color yellowing but otherwise normal fan leaves: more N, very dark green fan leaves: less or stop depending how far along the plant is, there will be some differences strain to strain in leaf color...
Yeah you can do that ya just need a container to pour the grains into and case that and youll have a tray. you dont want the grains just loose in the FC
you could spawn to bulk or take the lid off the jar and put your casing layer right onto the colonized grains and fruit out of the jar. Or pour a tray if you want to pour the grains still. What kind of FC do you have/ planning on?
the stretch should be just about to start maybe in a few more days if the plant is a bit stressed. Don't need to think about 12/12 unless it stays in veg for another couple weeks
I see it more as providing habitat as thats all I can do... the culture does the rest all on its own if the conditions are appropriate to allow it. I can influence the conditions but I cannot do what the mushroom(s) does
dank you can use water boiled and suck up into a syringe lit it sit in...
a clone is a piece of fruit tissue reverted to myc and can still have multiple sets of genetics present. An isolate is a single set of (dikaryotic) genetics.
You should add a thing at the end of that post telling people to noc up a test jar/ cake or plate before a grain bag so they can see what...
hmm. I luckily have not seen any yet so I dont really know anything about it just something I read. It seems similar to another something I read saying that the spore vendors' grows provide a vector for fungi viruses to distribute and grow endemically with hobbyists.
cobweb mold. I read something (not primary lit.) saying that it is/ could be a parasitic mold that uses the intended culture as a host since the person said they (and I) have never seen pics of cobweb on grains and that have not been inoculated with anything else (the person tried to noc them up...
