Anno has the right answer it is read  And yes pints can be used just as easily as half pints and some actually prefer using pints

I know for a fact that I used the correct amount of each ingrediant...including EXACTLY 1/2 cup of water for each jar. Should I just PC for less time? I did it for about 65 minutes last time...

for each half pint it's 2/3 cup vermiculite to 1/4 cup brown rice flour to 1/4 water... not 1/2 so now you've got the answer to your question  nice double post btw...

>I know for a fact that I used the correct amount of each ingrediant...including >EXACTLY 1/2 cup of water for each jar
There is no CORRECT amount from a simple instruction.
Read what PF writes:
"PF formula update for 1/2 pint canning jars (250 ml): 1/4 cup of brown rice powder 1/2 cup of vermiculite 45 - 60 ml (cc) water (1/4 cup = 59 ml) The water is the crucial element that variates the results. The different brands of vermiculite varies creating differing moisture levels. So as already stated in the PF TEK, one should always vary the water amount, take notes and compare results. The "MAX" water content can really make a great fruiting and give several flushes when the balance between the substrate elements is good."
Notice the "45 - 60 ml water" .

I deleted the other post, and I'm talking about FULL pints here - not half...either way, I answered my own question at the PF Tek website ... "Sterilization times 1. 1/2 pint PF substrate jars - 12 p.s.i. for 20 minutes 2. Water bottles - 12 p.s.i. for 55 minutes 3. Syringes and needles - 12 p.s.i. for 10 minutes" So I was WAY over sterilizing these things...sorry for wasting anyone's time. Thank you for your help  ~~Peace

Again, for the last time, I?m telling you that you used too much water.
I ALLWAYS pressure cook jars for 1 hour.

All right, all right - I'm not trying to piss you off here ... I agree with you that I used too much water...I'll definitely have to change that next time. Thank you for your help Anno -
