First Time Grow
    #15086562 - 09/16/11 09:40 AM (13 years, 4 months ago)

Hey, so I'm new to growing mushrooms I followed the lets grow mushrooms!  and made brown rice flour cakes and pressure cooked them with the aluminum on top of the jars. Now before I inoculate the jars I have a few questions/concerns. When I took the jars out of the pressure cooker  and removed the aluminum foil the Micro spore tape I had over the lids was soaked with the water from the pressure cooker. I thought the purpose of the aluminum foil was to keep the water off the top and from soaking in. I don't know if I'm being over concerned or not. It's been 3 days since I PC'd, did the wait compromise my jars? And if so, should I PC them again or just start all over?

You're fine, just because it was wet doesn't mean moisture got through.

You should be ready to inoculate, those jars sound fine, especially after three days of drying.

Do you mean cooling? You don't want your substrate to dry up on you or the myc will stop growing.

I think you should be fine as long as you stored them in a place where they would retain their moisture.

Thanks everybody. I ended up having to re PC my jars anyway, Because the holes for air exchange/inoculation weren't quite big enough.
And on 0ct 1, I received my first sign of growth. :grin:
And as of last night every jar but two had signs of growth.
I might have messed the first jar up, as I put 1cc in one hole, instead of spreading it out. Either way everything looks great and Im really excited.
