Is this mycelium?

HUMBLE STUDENT · 05-30-08, 10:16

Is this what pan mycelium looks like? or is this contamination I have no clue this is my first pan grow(pan goliath). does anyone have any input for me?

looks ok so far
should inject lower into jars, longer needle

Thanks, ya I need some longer syringes but right now I only got what my spores came in. glad to know that I have germination ,only in three outta ten jars but I just looked at some other jars I nocked up with a home made goliath syringe and there goin way faster than the others. the homade was made 4 days ago and is way more colonized than the ones in the picture which were nocked on the 18th

Ya, it's one of the reasons I find the low-form 1/2 pints easier to work with. It tends to take quite a while for the myc to travel all the way to the bottom of the taller jars.

Quick update my goliath jars are almost 100% clonized and I am scramling to find a casing I am thinking of going with 50/50 potting soil and verm but I'm not sure about my potting soil here are the ingredients:

Mushroom compost (which I thought was a very good sign)
composted manures (also seems ideal)
peat humus
bark fines
sand
perlite
dolomite limestone

It all sounds good, but I'm not sure about the limestone any input would be appreciated thank you

eh, it's useable but wouldn't be my first choice.
mix that verm 50/50 with coir is my advice.

kk cool i got a brick of bed a beast any special tek I should follow?

hydrate the coir with boiling water, mix 50/50 with verm
and you're good to go. mycellia loves coir so you can use a little deeper casing layer than you could with pure verm casing. about 1/2 inch deep is good.
