overboiled bird seed maybe?
    #12387376 - 04/13/10 06:47 PM (13 years, 11 months ago)

i simmered my seed for around 25 min and i think i might have simmered too long or accidentally let them boil for a second or two randomly. alot of the larger seeds have popped open and the interals are barely poking out of the shells. this is mainly the milo and the larger seeds, the smaller seeds which im not sure the name of arent really that popped but it seems maybe 30% seem to pop

i inoculated 2 days ago and cant really tell if there is colonization i figured by friday they would show signs of life

has anyone had success in haveing bird seed in the condition such as mine?

I have.

Just wait it out.

If it looks like mycelium growing, then you'll probably be fine. Although if you didn't sterilize properly or had bad inoculation procedure, then you will surely see contams coming on very soon.

do your self a favor and dont simmer anymore ... wbs does exellent straight out of its 24 hour soak ... youre likely to get some kind of bacterial contam with what you got ... wet rot ... hopefully not though ...

He won't get wet rot unless he has a bunch of excess moisture in the jars.

I bet as long as he was sterile, that he'll be fine.

if you rinse off all the sticky starchy stuff properly and let it dry appropriately..you should be fine!

after doing even more research i am just going to hope these 8 jars colonize just enough for me to get a few spoonfulls for a g2g transfer. the remaining 16 jars i had not yet inoculated are going to get new birdseed thats prepared in a different way to minimize the amount of exploded seeds.

all in all i think this was a good learning experience..lets just hope that my 8 jars colonize just enough to inoculate 8 more jars so i dont have to order more syringes :blush:
