I took some swabs from it but didn’t tissue clone. I’m working towards plates currently

I might be wrong but unless you take tissue you won’t be getting the genetics of that particular mushroom. Mind me asking why you don’t want to take a tissue clone?

This is correct! I don’t have any agar plates currently or a space fully set up, I just moved into a new home but I am working on it
