Hey so im wondering what was the best method for continuing the process of growing boom booms from a colonized substrate(WBS). doing a grain to grain transfer, making a spore print, or a liquid culture, cloning mushroom tissue or some other method i missed. im looking for something that will allow me to store it and use it again later. but just curious as to people prefferences, opinions and attempts of different methods. THANKS!

you grow a liquid culture from spores and the mycleilum begins to grow and that is what you inject your jars with. It speeds up the process because it is already growing, while spores must germinate.

I preffer isolates or clones from good looking fast growing shrooms grown on agar.
