"Hi everyone!
I’d like to hear your opinions and experiences: Is it better to use more or less nutrients in liquid culture and agar? How can this affect the subsequent growth of mycelium and fruiting bodies? What are the advantages and disadvantages of using higher or lower nutrient concentrations in these media? Thanks in advance for your responses!"

For now, I’m using a standard magnetic stirrer for liquid cultures, but all the parts for building an aerated LC system are on the way. I’ve also experimented with recipes that use 1% nutrients on agar, and I’ve noticed the mycelium can shift from tomentose to rhizomorphic growth when I prepare it that way. I haven’t reached the fruiting stage yet, but I’m really curious to see if this approach will result in a higher or lower yield.
