100 Strains of Agarikon

We have achieved a significant mycological milestone in culturing 100 strains of Agarikon - by far the largest culture collection in the world. We are doing full genome sequencing on each strain. We are excited to do comparative analyses genetically as well as medicinally.
This achievement is because of the great contributions of many friends in our myco orbit. A big shout out to our research team at Fungi Prefecti, LLC whose sustained, decades long efforts, amassed this amazing culture library.
Deep gratitude to them and to all of you that walk this mycelial path with us!
And…. Deep Gratitude to Nature ! 🖖
Happy new year!

I don't even know the extent of the many, deep "whys", but I do feel very grateful to you, thank you Paul.

[@spanqueluv9er]

The many deep whys?🤔🧐🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@annabrown5182]

Very excited for you and thank you for all you do for our mycelium future!!

[@Therealchristopherjessup]

Thank you Paul!! You’re an inspiration in many ways.
Love the work you do for the bees also. I’ve tried to fallow your lead and help them out myself. Much love.
Happy New Year!! 🎉

Thank you for your work Mr. Stamets, happy new year.

[@chiseldrock]

All the best in the new year to you and yours!

[@Andrewnutrition]

Congrats Paul. Hopefully you will find a super-strain that will lead to new medicine. Many are suffering from chronic bartonella infections from ticks and we need better treatment options.

Very cool. Happy new year guys🐸🍺🔪🔥

Although I trust Paul's identification that that's a rotten Doug Fir it's using as a substrate, Fir trees (at least the ones here in Montana) never maintain a trunk that straight and linear when they become that size. I immediately thought it was a Redwood or some type of Cedar variety. But again, I trust Paul. Shelf fungii is cool stuff!!

[@onealjones9039]

Here in Northern California fir trees are gigantic and most of the time very straight and tall similar to redwoods. Most loging operations here focus on Doug firs and redwoods because of that.

Unreal timing. two weeks ago I discovered a colony of agarikon on a fallen doug fir tree here on southern vancouver island. There are 8 that I can count in various stages of growth from dead to half dead and three still living with healthy white bottoms. half are the stacked pancake form and the others are cloud formation type like you show. I would like to help with your preservation efforts. How do I touch bases...

[@Wearephuct-O]

F ! Yeah!!!

[@scottbalbas7752]

Hello Paul!!
Thank you for all you do!!!
I often wonder what your take is on the way farmers spray everything green with poison and add antifungal agents to the soil. I think itz screwing up the natural water cycle and ruining fungi that would naturally act as a filter.

[@HHHolt]

You need to take over the mushroom suppliers for the fast food industry!

[@spanqueluv9er]

Uh… nope.🤦‍♂️

[@id10t98]

I love the memories of my grandparents taking us when we were little kids into the forests to pick mushrooms, berries and other edibles. I just made a roast with mushroom gravy a few days ago.

[@spanqueluv9er]

Literally nobody cares.🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@id10t98]

@@spanqueluv9er How wrong you are. My entire family cares about it. We still own the property, still hunt and fish from it and still enjoy the wild mushrooms, berries and edible plants. Ate a wild turkey I shot myself with wild mushroom stuffing this last Thanksgiving.

[@user-to2gh7sg3l]

They look like stromatolites...

[@anonymoususer5794]

Did you find any big ones? Geez..

[@invisibilianone6288]

I need to connect with Paul Stamets
.
I find various agarikon in many places.
Maybe find the next, making it 101😎☕

[@invisibilianone6288]

But wait,, did he just say," more than 100 strains, of agarikon".. ?

[@Jay-gr9ij]

I love you mate but you can't even get your products here in the UK. You need to devolve and spread like the mushrooms and spread the knowledge!

God bless this guy
