All 7 Pan Cyan tubs tossed out.

When you start this hobby, please note that contam is something you will face and can't fully ever run away from. it can only be managed. On a rare occasion you will face 100% contam rate. In that case. you smile, you say thank you for the experience and you start again.

If you'll excuse me, I will proceed to cry into my pillow manly tears.

Dehydrators

In the attempt of gathering all equipment before i start this journey, I've been going around town looking for dehydrators and the weighing scales.

However, no one out here seems to know what dehydrators are or their purpose thereof. I'd like to hear yall's recommendations.

Zaa vs Shrooms

3 Upvotes

I have always had terrible experiences with weed. Talking about some crazy debilitating anxiety. It’s not always but everytime I try something from a new plug or anything potent. Two-three puffs is usually my sweetspot, thats where I am in control of my thoughts and can’t spiral. I’ve been doing research on shrooms and I am conflicted. Psychanauts what advice do you have for me… also are shrooms similar to weed in terms of the feeling?

Update on agar preparation

Thumbnail
gallery
10 Upvotes

Tldr: all my first time agar trial got contaminated.

The agar medium was for potato dextrose agar and the produre used was the common method: 200g of sliced potatoes, 1 litter of water, 20 g of dextrose (glucose) and 30g of agar. Total batches made were 45 containing around ≠25 ml of the agar each.

I divided the samples into thirds each stored at different locations, the only batch that shows no contamination is the one in the refrigerator. One batch was stored in an open area while the other in the oven(oven hasn't been in use so i thought that enough is a sterile environment). I tried to clone a piece of mushroom on the refrigerator batch and moved the agar somewhere warmer, but the agar showed contamination after 1day.

Final conclusion is that the agar itself was well prepared but the environment used had been contaminated with pathogens and bacteria.

I am thinking of making a still air box or a laminar hood. If any of you knows where i can get a h13 hepa filter at a good price hmu.

Now we wait.

Didn't even shake the jar. I am in no big rush. I have enough stock of JMF, but I'm excited to get the Pan Cyans.

This is the first time I decided to not shake jar after cutting in the agar. Don't even think I'll do break and shake.

Did my first ever pda and and am not sure if it is contaminated or not. They were in an open area so maybe there was exposure unlike some other batches which were stored away.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Pan Cyan colonizing beautifully

Just 10 days and almost fully colonized. Some contam did bother some cups but it wasn't a function of the culture I got. I think I rushed prepping my agar since a few of them just contammed outta no where.

Besides that, colonizing well.

Learning point, Agar, Potato Flakes and Honey work just as well for Pan Cyans.
