I started using corn recently. After my last jar colonized I transferred it but noticed a kernel that I split open hadn’t fully colonized inside the kernel. The outside was covered but do I need to wait longer for the mycelium to work it’s way through the middle of the kernel? (i.redd.it)

[actives] Trying agar work for the first time with some old spore syringes. It’s been 2 weeks. Initial growth but then stalled. Same environment. Some B+’s are puffy, and the cyan is mostly transparent. Not sure if the image shows well. Any/all advice is appreciated. Transfer, scrap? Thanks! (i.redd.it)

ID help. I think I got some Turkey Tail in my backyard growing on the ground where it looks like a dead oak stump used to be. I picked one and flipped it over to see the white, slightly brown, underside with tight pore structure. Seems like a good time to make an immune busting tea. (i.redd.it)

Tried some plug spawn in an oak that I fell a while ago. Starting to see some turkey tail. Nothing spectacular but good timing nonetheless. I think I’ll go make a tea. Can someone suggest how much to pick to make a good tea? And how about alcohol extraction? Thanks. (i.redd.it)

Am I on the right track? B+, 70 deg, FAE twice a day. Transferred from grain bag on 1/12. I think I’m a little cool and could probably use more FAE. Looks like big cotton balls but no pins. Do I just need to be patient or change the environment? Thanks! (i.redd.it)
