8 jars, only 1...
    #12545230 - 05/11/10 07:40 PM (14 years, 8 months ago)

Ok, So I have 8 jars all with the same strain. I inoculated them about three weeks ago also keep in mind I'm using 1 pint jars with the pf Tek using brown rice flour. Point is, I only have one jar with one dinky little white spot. I have them incubation in a little cabinet right above my fridge. The cabinet is very clean, no dust or nothing. This is my second time, in a long time growing. But the first time I used 1/2 pint jars and everything went as planned. Any suggestions to what might be taking them so long and why they aint growing? Any information would help! Thanks yall....

Next time upload though the shroomery.

First mistake was using pints instead of 1/2 pints. 1/2 pints outperform larger jars.

Secondly did you wait 8+ hours after sterilizing the jars before inoculating and did you shake the syringe well

What are your temps

Yuuup I inoculated them the next day. Shook all my syringes, I even incoulated them in a glove box. I got my spores from spores101.com Alacabenzi strain. My temps are really just normal room temperature, I placed the jars upside down  right on top in a cabinet above my fridge.

Were they still hot when you inoculated them?

I ordered my first syringe from spores101.com and they worked fine, but that was 3 years ago.

If it does turn out to be the vendor, call them and tell them the problem and see if they will send you a replacement syringe. I don't really know if they will, but it's worth a try.

Could you give us a little more detail on the preparation of the jar?

1/2 pint jars colonize faster then larger jars when working with the PF Tek.If you want to move to larger jars I would recommend trying grains (Rye Berries,WBS,Popcorn).

Well I would do Rye,Popcorn, or WBS. But I dont have a pressure cooker. I just and bought me some 1/2 pint jars. I'm going to attempt a LC with honey. I have 1 syringe left but it looks bunk. It doesnt have many spores... and I have 5 cc's left in another syringe I last used on my 1 pint jars. I was just wondering could I inoculate those jars with the LC? If I don't see any growth within a month?

For my first grow I ordered from Spores 101. Thought it was something I did. So i ordered from mycrotopia. Way cheaper, shot up the same jars, they were fully colonized 8 days after that. Lesson learned, don't use them, use a sponsor.

Wanted PE Print or syringe. Will trade KSSS syringe
