Soil and Sod

Hey Guys, just checking in to tell you what's up with the fungi group. The last two weeks have been full of fungal activity! We have started another round of soil experiments and have finished up another RBBR and half way through with a sawdust. It's very interesting to see how some strains act in different experiments! Some of the ones that were really good the first time around are not so good the second.
What we are working on now is a master list of all the strains we are in charge of and what experiments they have been in. It's a lot of work and I am not super fond of Excel. That being said it's interesting to look at the data we have collected over the year and see trends, or see just how little the data helps with one strain or another. I can tell that data management along the way is very helpful, now we have to set up smaller scale experiments to replace some of the missing data with. Or Thom will have to without us. Either way much more work has to be put into what work we have already done to make our data useful. Anyways, it's busy around here and the weather hasn't been helpful! Have fun in the sun!
