Wanted to improve colonization times for my BRF/PF cakes. Thinking of doing a LC (honey) and innoculating my BRFs. I am using pint jars. I realize my water mixture in my BRF should be a little drier to compensate for the LC. Any suggestions on how much to use? (If someone has been doing this for a while)..and lastly, about how much sooner will my substrate colonize with the LC? I'm shooting for birthing about middle of July. Is that possible? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

OK. Nocced up LC with SS of Acadia and little bit of BRF. Should have myc swimming in the next week. Pictures are kinda boring, so I'm saving you guys the trouble of even looking. Will post pics of myc then. Hopefully no contam's. Sprayed and wiped throughly and borrowed a neighbors canner to make my BRF's in a week. Stay tuned! Pin porn in three weeks hopefully.

UPDATE- Thursday morning I couldn't wait and noc'ed up two pint jars with honey LC. Added a pinch of BRF to facilitate myc growth once in my BRF jars. Friday morning and I have little white strands growing around the purple spores that are swimming in the jars. I gently swirl once every 4 hours. (Don't have magnetic stirrer yet) I feel like leaving them alone until my myc has absorbed all the nute's. However, I've read that adding H202 will boost them some. Is this true? Thanks for the INSANE super knowledge you guys hand out. It will come back one day!

You're swirling an awful lot. Let the myc thrive for a few days. It's having to recover every time you swirl.
I don't think H2O2 boosts. I've heard that about coffee.

UPDATE- Saturday and I am seeing amazing growth of my LC. Here's a pic.

The little specks of purple and brown are 1-Spore, and 2- BRF I included with my LC. This thing has blown up in 2 days. I am extremely pleased. My other jar is not doing as well as this one, as most of my spores went into the first one. What does everybody else think?

I don't think you can tell if an LC is contaminated just by looking at it. You'll have to test it on a PF cake or agar.
I've had LC's that looked like beautiful white fluffy mycelium, yet I got contamination city right at the inoculation points.

UPDATE- Filled 10 pint jars with my BRF as per Roadkill's Tek. My other jar of LC has consolidated and the water is getting clearer. Steaming my jars in the canner (no pressure cooker yet ) and after cooling all night, plan to noc up my pints in the morning. Looking forward to this. But I have a couple of questions- 1. Should I be trying to suck up the wad in the bottom or shake the hell out of it and just go with the water.? 2. Planning on really putting the juice to these pints- about 1 cc per hole. (4 holes in each top)..don't want to throw off my water content and stall out. Does this seem like an awful lot or should I back off a little on the LC? 3. Keeping sterility in mind always, can I use what I need and fridge the rest? (LC)..heard it will keep for awhile, but it's always good to get feedback from TC's. Other than that- things are going well. Hope to have 100% colonization within 10 to 15 days. Is that a reasonable expectation? Take care, and peace to all!

1. Yeah shake the jar really well before sucking up into your syringe.
2. Some growers will say that 1cc per hole is too much and will throw off your water ratio, but I do it all the time with great success.
3. You can store the unused LC in your fridge.

sweet. That is exactly what I did. I got two 1/2 pints done with 1 syringe of LC. (about 1 cc per hole)...my BRF was a little drier than normal so I think I hit it right on the nose. Then I would flame-sterilize again, re-suck LC and flame again before I did another 2. My BRF was really light and airy and I'm confident that these things will take off in the next day or two. Will post pics then. Thanks for following my thread. Too damn cool! Peace to ALL!

UPDATE- noticed the beginning of white splotches growing in my BRF...very tiny though. No need for pics at this point but I'm sure in the next week these things are gonna zoom. The entire process has been quite easy for me. I feel as though I was naturally meant to do this. The initial room temp where I kept them was staying a constant 70 degrees. I felt as if this was too low. Moved them to a room that has a constant of 74 degrees. That's not too high is it? I probably already know the answer- just wanted to get some more feedback (or attention) LOL... PEACE to ALL!

UPDATE- Since inoculating Monday morning I have this.
 Two full days and all four points are growing. Like I said, I'm planning on a birthday around middle of July. At this rate, don't see why that wouldn't be possible. Cheers!
