What..?
You're basically cleaning the needle while flaming it. Just make sure to flame it once again after you're finished with inoculating and cap it.

...or you can buy a few empty syringes... the cheap disposable type, and cook them together with your jars... for inoculation you have one sterile syringe for each one of the jars, and you do not need to fumble around with alcohol and fire... BOOOOM !

Good grow, and please visit ShroomCity - just click the link below. THX

The reason for flaming is to sterilize the ID of the needle. You only need to do this once because anything coming in contact with the ID of the needle afterwards is going to be sterile. Alcohol swab between injections and you're all good.

:thumbup:

Always worked for me.  After flaming, my needle is always either quickly being pushed into my inoculation holes or resting in the alcohol wetted towel.
