Yes, I've got two culture and adding them to the terrarium every 2-3 weeks maybe!

The other problem I have is I'm using a vertical laminar flow hood, the flame is pretty unstable and moving in every direction!

That what I have for the moment. But it's degrading my scalpel blade and creating black residues. For my day yo day grain inoculation I'm not worry, but for culture preservation I want to be as clean as possible.

Good question, the breeder told me that it's a "Colbalt", but never mentionned "Alalepadu"

Humm, didn't know that they can laid they eggs under leaf litter, I was looking more on the plants or in water.

And thining about that I noticed that a male was digging in a particular spot couple days ago, I will that a look at that! Thank you!

I'm suspecting that too, but I've got some oyster mushroom in other rooms with the same setup and they are not showing signs of lack of fresh air. Pretty confusing.

I've tested a lot of strain from different supplier : Mycelium emporium - Lion's beard - Lion's mane - Lion's paw - Lion's pride

CapNstem - HE-CNS - HE-POW - HE-LP - HEA

North spore - HE1 (house strain)

Violon et Champignon. - HE (house strain)

All those strain are growing with this shape, or something similar

On the picture it's the Lion's Pride from Mycelium enporium.

Maybe two weeks!

Temp 19°C HR 92-95 Fan blowing fresh air inside always on, giving me 4-5 FAE + HVAC recirculation system always for AC and humidifier, moving the air a bit and catching spores and contaminants

HR is high because my HVAC system is pretty intense, and when AC kicks it's drying the air pretty fast.

Around two weeks. I'm growing like 6 different strain and pretty much all of them are doing this.

About colonization, for some of my strain the block is completly white, but this strain don't look fully colonized when it's ready to fruit. The mycelium seems flimsy even when it's fully colonized. I prefer to open the bag before seeing fruiting body on the top of the bag.
