  | Largest Fruit Yet... 133 grams fresh :)
As some of you may have noticed I have not posted grows in a few months. I decided to take a break on my grow op just to make sure all was safe with my setup. I had a couple weird dreams about getting in trouble so I decided to listen to my dreams and take a break. I started back up about a month ago and things are going great. I just wanted to share this Monster that popped up the other day. I used g2g jars that were from another monster (clone) that grew over 100 grams fresh. I think the genetics were passed down  This is the largest fruit I have yet to grow... Thick and meaty....stem NOT hollow at all... Huge cap.... Specimen.... Golden Teacher... from clone.... now to the eye candy...      And the proof on my scale.... The large cup is tared out....  Thanks for viewing... I love this hobby and am glad to be back. I've got a few tubs brewing at the moment and will pass along the results down the road. Love me some phatties....  GT

Right on GT, i was wondering where you had gone........ but wow very impressive, and great work finding the clone that'll produce. no wonder you like the GT's so much - me i never had much luck with'em. but i did get a 63 grm wet one once from ms, but that's nothing like your's.. very nice! keep it up, you may soon be in league with the old Rev.

Not as good as a isolate but would be as good as a LC but I have no experience with either so I may be wrong. I would say it is basically cloning a phat shroom and shooting up some jars so it would be quicker and more reliable than MS that's for sure. I believe isolation is more percise than the methed in question. Sound good though doesn't it |

A clone is an isolate by itself as it has a specific, non-multispore (isolated) set of genes. LC can be made of either isolated tissue/ mycelium or spores (non-isolate aka multispore). The method mentioned by reverend trips sounds easy enough. You just need a fruit that is meaty enough to extract as much of sterile tissue as possible.

I take a pint jar, puncture a hole in the lid with a nail. Then I take some broken glass (about 5 or 6 pieces), each about the size of thumb tack, and put them in the pint jar with about ~150ml of water. I put aluminum foil over the top and put into my pressure cooker for about 30 minutes. I take my pressure cooker off the stove and let it cool while keeping the PC lid on. I select my fruit from my fruiting tub that I want to clone. Either the largest shroom from a vigourously growing cluster or the random monster like the one I chose to clone to produce this phattie. Selection of the shroom to clone is a COMPLETLY different topic. Hit the Vaults they are your best friend here on Topia I use a half assed made glove box and wear gloves, a hat, and one of those white face masks that filters my stank ass breath from breathing contams into the glove box. It covers your mouth and nose and has a rubber band thing that holds it on....ie the same shit doctors always wear. While wearing the gloves and all the previously mentioned shit I take my shroom that I want to clone and gently TEAR apart the mushroom from the bottom up towards the cap. DO NOT cut with a knife b/c this can introduce contams from the outside of the mushroom to the inside. The inside of the shroom will, more than likely, usually be sterile. I then use a pair of iso steralized tweezers and pull out some of the INNER MOST mycelium tissue. A couple of nice strands can easily be pulled out and put DIRECTLY into the sterilized pint jar. Take the lid off the pint jar and put tissue in as quickly as possible to help prevent airborn contams. I then immedietly wipe the jar completely down with 90% iso alcohol and make sure the lid is on tight. I put my thumb over the hole in the lid, it also has the aluminum foil still on it, and shake that jar like I was high on meth. Shake, shake, shake, until the dense strands of sterile mushroom break up and make the sterile water look cloudy. The water will now be saturated with healthy mushroom tissue with the genetic traits that you have selected by choosing your specific shroom to clone. Then I use syringes, I like large 50ml syringes located in the equine section at my Tractor Supply with an 8 or 10 gauge needle. The longer the needle the better. SporeWorks sells pre sterilized syringes if you can't find them locally and supporting the Sponsers is always a good thing...  I sterlize my needle, shake the jar, and then remove the aluminum foil. I then make 3 syringes with all the sterile water / clone tissue. I knock up some sterilized WBS so that I can do g2g transfers in the future. ~150ml of tissue saturated water can make TONS of quart sized jars. I usually put more than is needed in each jar. Shake the jars up and mine are usually fully colonized in about a week. Now you have your clone....  I hope this will help those who are looking for cloning alternatives. Rev Trips was the bomb at making those huge South American shrooms. He is in a class that I have yet to have achieved....but hopefully, I'll get there some day with my Golden Teachers Thanks for reading. Peace and Love, GT

 I thought a isolate was growing mycelium on agar and only selecting the most aggressive mycelium growth. | |
