Its good to know what the herd does.
I'm priveledged to part of a very clued up group of entheobotany fanatics, even among us there is alot of disagreement, but, there is a diffirence between when someone does something wrong, or just in a diffirent manner.
So someone might come up with something new and noone will shoot him down as long as there is logic to his reasoning and hopefully similar or related practical experience.

The methods you will see me reccommend are normaly the most cost effective/simple/energy saveing winners of all things tried. As few of you know, I am a fulltime student of things psycedelic and natural as a pensioner with hours to kill every day for many years now. If I reccommend something its because its how i do it, not because its the best way out there imaginable.

Their is so much truth to that statement that I almost admire you for saying it!

From a person who values the art of tripping and heeding news from an unpenetrable source that wouldn't be accesible to me in my normal state... I would do my utmost to carry out a certain synthesis, extraction to the best of my ability.

This is my first attempt in growing mycelium and I wish it all the best luck for the future of mycology... in the field of academics, mycology is a dying art... but to me its an ancient art to be relived!

The white mycelium is surely taking over the jars now... I see white thick strands of mycelium just like ANC's pictures! Excitement is bouncing off the walls at this very moment... will post pictures shortly ;)

Glad to hear my friend. Mine are in qt jars at only 79F so they are moving slow but I am glad to see that over half my 14 jars have 4 to 6 dime to nickle sized mycelium growth in them. Slowly but surely they are coming but not pic worthy yet. I am an inpatient man which is one of the reasons I love autoflower plants so if this goes about the same length as those I will be fine. Keep up your good work bro.

As you worked with spores, shake the jars up well, you can break it appart a bit against a tire or a rubber shoe sole... don't wack the shit out of it, just enough to break it up some, then shake/rolll it to spread it in the jar, then when pieces gets to that size again, repeat.

Everytime I check the jars out... which is about every three days, I'm give them a good shake... will do the rolling technique as you instructed ;)

I'm a bit nervous. 7 out of 13 jars are now showing white stranded mycelium...but the rest have completely nothing! Although, the other 6 jars I kind of over packed them with vermiculite and brown rice flour... it is now 14 days?

Any thoughts?

Hey it happens, try and give those jars another half cc of spore solution.

So um.... you saying? That I didn't inoculate enough spore suspension?

I used 1.5 cc's each on every jar... I think they're late bloomers... one jar just shown a bit of white mycelium... my worrying has eased down as of late!

Things are going great! I can't say there is too much frustration in these incubating stages... besides a few "still born" jars that haven't shown mycelium!

A quick and easy inoculation of a half cc per jar should do the trick ;)

By the way, "SICC" I didn't know you reside in Southern Cali. 805, isn't that near Tarzana?
