How am i doing so far? New Developments and Questions!

OK Guys, I have been reading here for few months, thanks for all the info.
My Girls Cat Cassidy has got some spores and started the PF-Tek for simple minds.
She pressure cooked them for an hour an carefully innoculated 8 1/2 pint jars with B+ and Treasure Coast.
The Cat has a large container in the closet with a submersible heater and keep the inner container about 79.8 degrees with 95% humidity.
Cassidy used various lids to test the best method and hopes to case some as well.
This is the fourth day and the cat thinks he sees some mycelia growth but is not sure. It mostly looks grey although she has spotted a few whiter areas.
Does this sound about right?
My girlfriends pussy is special to me and I'd like to put it at ease.

If the gray is more like a transparent instead of the actual color, then your pussy is doing fine. In about a day or two the transparent should turn into a white. You temp might be a little low at 79.8 and for this reason it is still transparent. My pussy keeps her jars at 82 and by the fourth day is very white. Other cats will tell your pussy to keep the temp at 85, but my puss keeps it at 82, because the myc let off heat as they colonize. If your cat has any questions it can PM me

Yea, my iguana got freaked out when he saw those first puffy gray clouds, I assure you that if they are a transparent white more than a "gray", the little pussy is doing fine. I'd raise the temps as well. Looking good

Actually when I first innoculated them I thought there was too much water in some of them. When the drop of "Spore Juice" got to the bottom of the jar it seemed to mix with some water on some of the Jars.
Does that mean my girlfriend pussy is fucked, so to speak?
How would one avoid this.
I did eight jars with various lids and foil tops to see which I preffered. I followed the PF Tek for Simple Minds pretty much to a T.
Damn and I was feeling good at work thinking it was working.
Time will tell I suppose.
Vermeculite is gray so I thought perhaps I was seeing it incrrectly.
There is definately some white growth in a few of my B+ Jars.
I plan on doing more Monday and every Monday all summer.
HOW CAN I AVOID THIS PROBLEM IN THE PC?

some people put tape over innoculation points to get water out when sterlizing.

Actually some have tape, some have foil, some have tape and foil and one has only the tape with holes in it after I shot them up.
So hopefully with patience I will find the best way.
In the mean time, Cassidy the Cat wants to trip alot this summer so I'd like to get this first batch going strong.

I recommend not putting the holes in the jar till after you've sterilized not only does this guarantee no water gets in but it will vacuum seal your substrate so it can actually stay good for years before innoculating...I just swabbed the nail I used to poke the holes with rubbing alcohol and wiped down the lids with alcohol before doing this...I've only lost 1 jar outta 12 so far with this...btw I also just used alcohol for the syringe...no flame sterilization...they say too...but so far I've been fine with just rubbing alcohol. /me shrugs

ya looks like those jars are wet..the only proble with that is it raises the chances for contamination....raise the temps and get them going if the mycelium colonizes quickly then the contaminate is harder to take over...if im wrong someone correct me...........Peaces

How did the jars get wet in the first place?
On four of then I covered the Holes with industrial strength tape. On the other four I put tin foil lids over the top twice.
I used an inch of water in the canner.
Does the water condense in the Jars or flow under the lids or tin foil or both?
Steamed at 15 PSI for an hour.
Could it be I used too much "spore juice" in the innoc?
Oh well they all look pretty good today, no signs of contams thus far.
I am starting another batch today and will be more careful.

I'm willing to bet the jars are overcooked. BRF does not need to cook at 15 psi for a hour. Next time try for fun 10 psi for 45 min and see what happens. You may have carmalized (sp) some of the BRF. You'll know if the color change was big in the substrate if you over cooked it.
I cook at 10 psi for 45 min. Let them cool overnight, inject spores, when I see the myc start to grow I remove the tape and put a coffee filter over the top as a dust cover. Never taken longer then 21 days to colonize.
These are BRF These are just for fun.

There seems to be some action here!
5 of 8 Jars have begun serious Mycelia growth.
Three look ready and have a few tiny white spots.
Nice Buds Shots BTW
Last Night I innoculated two Quart Jars of Rye for my second try.
New method every Monday is the plan.
JBggg
Does it look like its working or what???
thanks

all looks pretty good from here. the one on bottom left is waterlogged, and the bottom may never colonise, but if you can live with that....
now you wait ..... (the boring bit) ...... and get your fruiting chamber all ready and prepared for birthday in about a fortnight.
