Had a few wet jars smear a bit. Rinsed the next batch a few times more and tweaked the water content and it was fine, great actually.

I think I'm going to follow the local tree service around for a day and see what the have to offer. I'll put some logs in my basements mud room for three weeks and then inoculate them...

It has turned brown. I put it into a bucket of cold water in the fridge for 48 hours.

Hey did a quick scan of this thread and didn't see the answer. Does anyone know of a Canadian version of Karo Light Vanilla? I seen Crown Vanilla, but wasn't sure if it would be the same. I want to make sure I stick to the techs.

You mean clear corn syrup?
I've used the Crown clear corn syrup for LC's and I didn't like it. Honey was better but malt is the best I find.

I'm pretty sure you can only link to sponsors if it is a product sold by them. Lots of sponsors will send spores into Canada.

Speaking of Sponsors and AMAZING Deals, check out Fun Guy Mushroom http://www.funguymushroom.com/ They have a double your order on until February and a 4 for $40. So for $40 plus tax and shipping I got 8 Syringes. 1 of each he stocks plus an extra of Golden Teacher. Can't really go wrong! Also he is Canadian, cheers to that.

spore pod has been good to me. They also include little extras which are nice ie. gloves, alcohol pads, and they come in a sealed box which is nice.

Gloves and alc pads cost very little when purchased in bulk. The fact of the matter is they are not a sponsor and do not pay to advertise on The Shroomery. When you deal with a shroomery sponsor you are in essence supporting the shroomery as well as getting guaranteed customer service, along with someone to contact if things go wrong.
Different strokes for different folks but try to keep non sponsor talk to a minimum.

I just wanted to say that if you're looking for agar, I would strongly recommend bulkfoods.com.
I ordered 1.25 lbs of agar yesterday around 3:30 PM and it came before noon today (less than 20 hours from ordering!). That's the fastest I've ever had something ordered, prepared, and shipped to me, and I've been buying things online for years. Plus, their agar is cheaper than the sites suggested in the first post. With shipping, it cost me about 7 cents per gram of agar (at the amount I bought), compared to almost 17 cents per gram for agar from well.ca, without shipping. It ships out of Ohio, so this is good for everyone, not just us Canucks.
They also have hyrdated lime; good for balancing ph in casings (if you use them), or DMT extractions using a certain tek.
Also giving EvilMushroom 5 shrooms for starting and maintaining this thread. It's crucial, and I'm glad I could contribute something.

Nice contribution, I added the link to the first page. What did the shipping cost, was there any duties on the order?

Shipping was on the steep side, $10. It was sent via UPS and there were no charges at the door. Like I said though, it was ridiculously fast, and even with shipping, it's still cheaper per-gram than Well.ca.
P.S. there was very little difference between the cost of shipping 3oz and 20oz of agar, maybe a few cents. Might as well stock up with the larger quantity.
