Hello. I've tried the scoby hotel for about a bit more than month. I've put one scoby in there, along with two cups of the current batch at that time. Now that I open it up I find five scobies, of different shades and colors. See below. The thick one at the upper left was the one on top. The dark one is the one I put in there. Amongst these scobies, are there some that are more 'potent' or perhaps best suited to start a new kombucha batch ? Along with the liquid that was in the hotel. Also, is there a time when a scoby is not useful anymore ?

The two at the bottom are quite thin.

Thanks, cheers.
