Question on cold shocking casing
    #16771507 - 09/01/12 02:37 PM (12 years, 4 months ago)

Hey guys, so i was wondering, my casing was not pinning and it had some contaminates in a little area... So i broke that section off and decided to try an dunk the casing and put it in the fridge. Well my fridge outside is too cold i guess and the water started freezing when i took it out. Will this harm the mycelium, i just put it in the chamber as such.

What are you fruiting?

If its P.Cubensis they are Tropical Fruits and benefit none
from cold shocking.

haha, damn dude.. yea you dont want it to freeze. maybe try putting it in direct sun for a few minutes or something like that next time, but mycellium doesnt like being frozen.

hmm.. never seen another telling someone to dunk in warm water.. i quess if there wasnt any or much baceria present then a warm dunk would be fine, since the refridgerated dunk is to slow or halt the growth of bacteria during dunking. seems a little strange to me though, but it might benefit him because his fridge is soo cold..
