No Growth RYE - PICS
#16171938 - 05/02/12 05:55 PM (1 year, 16 days ago) |

Hey everyone, i shot up these RYE Jars about 7 days ago with multispore from sporeworks and dont have any signs of growth, but also no sign of contams.
This is my first time using RYE, but with BRF and Popcorn ive never had a problem, or even a contam for that matter
I soaked for 24 hours then followed the "rye bitches rye" tek and boiled for 10 minutes before rinse and PC. I also made sure that the RYE was not too wet before loading into the jars. Tyvek lids also. Im kinda getting worried about them now since i usually always have growth within 7 days. Could it be the RYE? Or should i just keep waiting?

Sporeworks is obviously sending out bunk syringes. Because I think its more than coincidence that three of us here are having the exact same problem with the exact same vendor.

Thats the shitty part, by purchasing the spores you are entering into a legal contract saying you will not germinate them under any circumstances, so they can get away with it. I am still at the conclusion stage, but if I get any more confirmation on this, I'm changing vendors for sure.

Mine are the same way, bro. Which is different, because they used to send me some pretty clear syringes, but they were always viable, now all of the sudden they are dark and don't work. Very suspicious.

I second this. Seven days really isn't long for multispore. I don't think it's time to get upset yet, but if you're really worried, perhaps you could get started on some more jars so you'll have something to fall back on?
I've only ever purchased from ____________-. Since my first experience was so positive, I never had a reason to go elsewhere. I have a syringe left from when I ordered during the Halloween special, I really need to use that bad boy up real soon. The syringes I did use from the Halloween special germinated beautifully, save for one. Mean green hit me with the Costa Rica attempt, but the moisture content was far too high in those jars, so easily could have been my fault.
I've got Hautla spores in seven rye jars now, also from the Halloween pack. Inoculated Saturday. After checking on them this morning, I believe I have germination in three of them. But that's pretty fast for germination in my experience, so I'm not going to say for certain that germination took place since it's too early to tell if it's myc or the goddamn green again. I'm staying positive and I'll report back when I can say for certain whether it's green or myc since there seems to be rumors of foul play afoot.

Okay ill wait a bit longer. I have a STRONG feeling that it is the spores though, So i actually contacted sporeworks and they are sending me some replacements. I also gave them the "batch number" so they can pinpoint if some of there stuff is bad.

Did you shake it after you inoculated it?
How many cc's did you use per jar?
It can be hard to get Spores to germinate on strait grain, using an LC or agar is going to ensure success.
They aren't bunch trust me, they look great under the scope.

i did NOT shake after, mainly since i used multispore, and i dont think thats the problem at all. 2ccs in each quart jar. I did these the exact same way i did all of my popcorn and BRF.

Sounds good, I would have expected results also. I have had problems germinating on grain though and LC's made it work.

first off i would say you should remove the vendors name no need to get them in trouble for you illegal actions
second off they are a very good vendor how many people on this site trust myself as on of them, i would not use anyone else
and third off dont just start bashing a vendor when more then likely its something you did there are many variables in this process and if one of them is off it could mess up your whole grow

i have 2 holes, one very small one to inoculate and a 1/2" hole for FAE, i followed the "RYE BITCHES RYE" tek to a T.

I've got a similar issue, rye I put cube spores on on the 16th of April and the jars look exactly the same as day 1...not sure what's going on!

yes there are a lot of people that have this problem with all vendors each syringe has millions of spores and for none of them to germinate is a little hard to believe and i dont see any vendor doing anything that would hurt the integrity of a syringe usually is the people growing it doing something wrong
and a 1/2in whole is pretty big man i only use a 1/4in

Thanks for the info, I have to disagree a little though, ive spoken to a few people this week that recently got spores from the same place i just got mine from.
ive done Popcorn this way and BRF multiple times with no problems. The thing that stuck out to me is a member got a few different strains from the same place and only one of the strains colonized, all the others had no growth at all. That leads me to believe that this is a freak incident with this vendor.

if you saying last week then yea you might actually be right there was that shit storm in the use that snowed real but and temps in some places got below zero if being shipped with temp being that low they would be a chance of the syringes turned to shit probably to cold for them

Two holes? I don't know the Tek, but I'm surprised it suggested a 1/2" hole for "FAE" as that is likely the problem. Your grain is drying out. One 1/4" hole, covered with micro-pore tape after inoculation, would suffice.

Earlier in the thread I said I'd report back about my grain jars. They've got mycelium in em, I'm certain of it.

I somehow screwd up the moisture content of my rye jars and I had the inject some cc's of boiled (then cooled) water into them. They colonized well after that.

Since this thread seems to be getting replies and my thread doesn't, can I hijack to ask - are mine too dry then?

I thought that might be the case but then I read a post by RR saying (in essence) "They're almost never too dry, the moisture is in the grains, it's better to be too dry than too wet" so I abandoned my plans to inject some sterilised water...

yea ur jars look good and after a 24 hour soak its pretty hard to dry ur grains out to much not sure about rye though but i would think it the same as everything else

Good to see your getting some growth. Rye is much harder to achieve germination on than brf cakes. I bet if you took that same syringe and put it on Agar/LC or a cake you would have growth.
Best of luck

If anyone is keeping score, I've got growth now too! A tiny dot....possibly a record, 4 weeks after inoculation? Highly doubtful it's mycellium, but you never know! Now to see if my sclerotia jar will ever start...

While the grains do look a tad dry, there still lots of moisture in those kernels, should be enough for the mycelium to grow. Sometimes spores can be slow to germinate and what does germinate might be some slow growing strains, especially if they are old, which you never know they could be.

yea, it was kinda weird because I posted this thread and found out that alot of other people had problems lately with the same vendor, and it took 2 weeks for them to start, but now they are going fine. Ill post some pics of the grow soon.
The vendor was nice enough to send me new spores and like i said they started growth in 4 days.

why do you think that? I prepared the jars the exact same way, and with the new spores i got growth in 4 days, compared to 2 weeks from the first batch of spores they sent me.
