so just to make sure LC is right
    #11841524 - 01/16/10 02:05 PM (15 years, 3 days ago)

SO I mix my medium with water, jar it, put tin foil with a drop of silicone on the top, and screw on a metal ring and pc for 15 mins. Then inoculate and incubate?

You should better make a "regular" lid, with a injection port and a filter to allow gaz exchange but for the rest you are correct.

Good luck with your LC :wink:

I think you're confused about what to do with the lids.
The silicone goes in a hole in the lid as a self-healing injection port for inoculating, the tinfoil goes on when you're pc'ing to keep water out of the jar. Also, I believe you need to wait for the silicone to set before you PC, or else you may end up with a glob of material in your LC and an open hole.

I've used this method with success:

how important is the tin foil because it doesn't look like anyone else uses it.

As long as the silicone can take high temps, then it wont matter what kind you get.

The only reason I use tin foil on LC lids is to keep contams from landing on the lids before I inoculate it.  Tin foil is used on grain/pf jars to keep excess moisture out.

SO I pc'ed my LC and they came out clear instead of a gold yellow tint. I am using light corn syrup. Pc'ed for fifteen mins and cooled from pc for four hours.

It could be a weak concentration...

do you think you were a little bit stingy with the syrup? if not, is there a lot of sediment in the jar?

I would try it, if nothing is growing then maybe you should try to add a bit more syrup.

I used natural honey... about a tablespoon per 250 ml of water.

Use the biggest, fattest needle you have; 18ga or bigger. If thick LC is a problem, consider using widebore withdrawal ports.

I've found 16g to be about right. Big enough to get chunky lc and small enough not to rip apart my ports.
