Yeah good to know Rez thanks

That’s good to know too. I’ve been using verm lately. But I was really impressed with the charcoal in the Pf jars. I just ran out of charcoalBy my not so perfect memory there was a place in the US that had asbestos in the vermiculite ,,that was shut down years ago ,,
There should be no concern about it in the vermiculite we get.
There’s not much reason to. If you spend some time in the shroomery you’ll see the guys/gals growing bulk amounts regularly are almost all using bulk grain spawn to straight coir monotubs generally purchased in brick form. The reason is it’s a good solid tek.I'm just after something to add to the coco to give it a bit of a boost. The best harvest I've had was with using bought pre moistened coco that had been supplemented with? Not the cheapest option at 20 odd dollars per kilo bag. Might skip the horse shit. Would adding brf to the coco be any good? Might go all clumpy? Or adding charcoal? Or am I thinking along the wrong lines? I Do have some gypsum as well
Cleanliness and simplicity are the keys to mycology.
there’s such a wealth of knowledge on the shroomery. But it can be a little overwhelming at first.
Everyone has their own styles and preferred spawn/bulk/fruiting attempts.
I do like to try a few different ways when I try growing new species just to find my preference.
I’m pretty happy with rye grass seed in a pf jar and it’s the first attempt at using it as grain spawn so I’ll keep updating as it goes.
Soot and R3z. Are you guys logged on the shroomery?
I’d take some transfers of the top and right one and go for a mono/make sure they’re clean. Left one obviously has contam at bottom but also looks like something in the mycelium So personally I’d discard and try again but if you leave it you might be able to get something to transfer before the contam spores all over the plate.Those transfers have awesome growth. The ovoid still has something else but that’s to be expected from wild wood loving prints.
With these isolates the next round of grain spawn should be heaps better.
I’m thinking I might uncle Ben’s some of the Galindo like elsooto in the clear zip bags. View attachment 12028
Left one being the pan cyan?I’d take some transfers of the top and right one and go for a mono/make sure they’re clean.

Woops. Got my left and rights mixed up. I meant discard the ovoid.Left one being the pan cyan?
The ovoid on the right has that big black blob. The pan cyan has my phones reflecting below the myc on the plates lid. I’m going to transfer all three anyways to really clean them up.
Hole punches for leatherwork etc are great for taking transfersLeft one being the pan cyan?

Just trash left in the mushroom compost in your soil. Could be a bunch of different species. I’d just pull themAlso had these guys pop up. Not sure what they are.View attachment 15188
