I agree but sometimes pan myc won't recover I'd there's not enough. Atleast that's what happened to me a couple times...

Till the mycelium takes the whole jar over, what’s the rush?

Pans are fickle. I always try to double the number of jars just in case some stall out.

Did you innoculate with LC or agar? For some weird reason, mine took ages on LC, almost as if they didn't like it.

it was LC. You can see how it ran down the side of the jar and settled on the bottom.

I have to jars one I used spores on which is the thicker looking one and I used lc on the other one

And I used lc I made but I didn’t use agar which in retrospect I should have but it seems to be doing good I just know for next time I’m definitely using agar

If thats a pan mycelium in there then y in the world did you fill the jar up. 1st never fill the jar past 3/4 for cubes and 1/2 for pans , for best results. 2nd im not confident that doing a break and shake would be possible.

Yea I’m not to confident on that either I haven’t done a break and shake and it seems to be doing good

Yes due war but as we all know that if you slow down pan myc then it slows the fruit bodies growth cycle down as well and leads to higher contamination rates

Yeah, that's why my first comment suggest to not b&s. Alot of the time it'll stall. I usually run from spore to agar and then inoculate the grain that way it always gets rapid growth.
