This is my first LC using light honey and water at a 4% - 5% ratio to water. 3 tubs, been 3 days and still no sign on growth. Anyone offer advice? there is alot of sediment in 1 tub though..

Looks like you used spores? If so where did u get them from? What about Ur temp? Id take the tinfoil off and throw some micropore tape on the hole. Just wait a few more days I usually get something at day 5 or even 7 at times. Good luck

Ok so just checked on the LC and the spores are surounded in a cloudy substance that seems to be clinging to to them. Im wondering if this is normal or it is contam? I'l post some pix up in the next 10 mins.

Your probably on your way with germination/mycelium or its contam. I just went through two MS syringes from a sponsor, Z strain and 6 quart jars of malt/Evap Cane/97% h2o and no growth after 3 weeks. No contams either so I guess I have that to amdire.
New pics please, Goodluck!

I've only done a little LC but it looks like spores germinating to me. I'd wait to get some more advice from some experienced LCers here before tossing...

Hey, I hope it turns out that what you have is mycelium growing. Please post more pictures in the next few days as I'm sure it will help anyone who is considering doing LC or already set up to do it themselves.
Again, good luck sir!

Awesome thanks man, I am looking to start LC very soon so any kind of posts about it will be helpful. I think a lot of people are afraid of showing failure in picture form here, but truthfully, those are the most helpful pictures for people who haven't gone through it themselves yet!
Good vibes sir~

The first picture looks good. But pics 3 and 4 show some kind of dark thing in the center of the blobs. I don't think that should be there; the blobs should be clear. Unless it's some kind of sediment or you put in a bucket of spores and they're clumping. Give it some time to keep growing. You need only a knife-tip of spores tipped in to make a fine liquid culture. Swirl the mixture every time you walk past it to break up the clumps. Good luck!
