I took that agar and boiled some RO water, took a sterilized tube and made an LC tube by adding the water to the agar plate and scraping it off, then sucking up the mixture. I put about 5-6ml in the bag of corn (2lbs) and coco coir (about a lb and a half). I also made sure to take a sample for another agar plate before trying this Lc tek.

This was very successful! About to spawn now.

I took a cap from the same tank, and put the entire thing on agar like a dummy 😂 but it worked nonetheless! I have to update with newer photos

One is completely contaminated and the other has a fighting chance and is going stronger

Growing nicely. One is contaminated and the other looks great even with a little dirt in it

Home made agar with rice water and corn syrup. Sample from a section of strong growth in a coco and worm castings substrate. The samples were grown from a corn grain spawn, transferred to the coco/castings substrate, grown in that media and then taken to the agar plate. I’m positive I’ll have to deal with contamination with the little bit of coco that I couldn’t shake off but that’s fine, I want to see what they growth can do. Both samples were very fibrous and thicker than a piece of thread.
