I steam sterilized four 1/2 pint jars. I've got a few jars of each colonizing right now. Just be sure to be clean!

LC is always risky, and with no PC it's riskier.
Don't spend more than a few drops of spores on this project.

Meanwhile, get a pressure cooker, even a small one.

2cc is enough for 4-8 jars. Spores are potent, use a few drops.
I have a 4qt and a 6qt, got both at thrift store for about ten bucks.
You'll be surprised how much you can cook in a small PC.

I wouldn't bother trying LC without a pressure cooker.
And frankly if you're buying a PC, you might as well spend $1.69 on a pack of agar and do the job right.

Microwave LC's can work - they're a lot easier to do in a PC though. In a microwave you have to constantly watch them, plus you can't use anything metal (like a canning jar)

Btw, if your doing them with honey, it's 4cc honey to 100cc water. Way easier to measure if you have an empty syringe laying around.

yeah, I tried the baby bottle tek in the microwave, FAIL!
haha

I've had good success with qt jars PC'd @ 15 PSI for 20 mins. 90% success rate of germinated spores or LC to LC or agar to LC.

I'm getting agar equipment tomorrow though, listen to Doc about the agar, once you get the stuff it lasts for a while. plus it opens doors into other areas of mycology!

We think we have freedom, but we're all just mice in a maze....

                   

FYI: I stole all my pix off google! F+ PORN! Here is a shit-ton of porn by yours truly!

I have FINALLY written up a couple teks as to how SHP has done things in the past. DISCLAIMER: This is not for the newbie to mycology, and not going to work for everyone! This is simply what works for one person when other teks and methods have failed miserably!
~~~~~How SHP does their unconventional WBS Prep!! (NO DRY METHOD)~~~~
~~~~~SHP's highly disputed method of doing ALL their work outside of a flow hood or a Still air box!~~~~~
~~~~~Troubles harvesting the side and bottom pins in your mono? Learn how!! Dunking included ;-)~~~~~

Can try this one

http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/5238137#5238137

As I have heard around and as you have been told its best to have a PC but if you dont/cant then here you go. SWIM is in the process of trying this method for her LC... she will let you know how it goes

If you want to go microwave LC, forget the honey, go for raw sugar (turbinado sugar) not brown or white sugar, raw sugar is the coarse sugar they serve at places like starbucks.
Much clearer and it wont caramelize as easily, or form a sediment.

Next don't bother with spores in an LC, results are random, if at all, but good luck, follow up with results!

That five year old tek is not the best way to proceed.
Does it work? Sure, people have used it successfully.
Is it the best, smartest, most practical way to proceed? No.
