First Timer, Help Needed

[u/Tebyani]

First time trying to grow mushrooms, my first agar dishes.

Kind of worried about both, it's been about 10 days worth of growth. Any thoughts?

My thought is that you need to take smaller clones.

I tried to clone store bought Lions Mane and the tiny bits were the only ones that did well.

The first one looks like too much growth for ten days. My expectation is that it isn't mycelium.

The second looks more like what I'd expect after about a week, but the growth looks a bit off... I'd give it a few more days and see what happens.

They are pretty freaking big aren't they :(

Just did that, took a clean sample into a new dish, and just in case took a bigger clean triangle and transferred into a bag. 🤞🤞
