So my glc has this like "clear goo layer" Around the grains. Its 4 days in. Is this my myc. I knocked up another lc with spores and so far nothing. I can see some super tiny red dots floating around in both. What's this..

GLC is the way to go vs. LCs from spores. LCs from spores suck.
Pics would help.

Um, your GLC has grain in it?
Should just be water with myc in it.
Goop around the grains sounds ike bacteria. That would happen if you just added water to a jar of grain and left it to sit.

You can very slightly see clear growth around the grain. I'm hoping it myc cuz I cant Afford another syringe since 101 fucked me. What am I supposed to. Dunk the colonized grain in the lc and pull it out? Lol

What procedure did you follow for making that?
Could be mushroom myc. could be mold.
Only way to find out would be to knock up a jar with it and try to grow it out.
It's most likely contaminated.
To make a GLC
Start with a Healthy Fully Colonized jar of grain.
Inject sterile water into jar of grain.
Shake.
Suck water/myc mixture back into syringe.
Use like any other syringe of LC. No waiting.
Let your grain jar re-colonize. Use it as spawn

Yeah. I didn't like the thought of shooting water into my colonized jar. Also I didn't wanna shake the jar again. I was birthing it. The. Next day 1tsp honey to every 200ml water PCd for 20 minutes. Did grain transfer in a still air box.

You cannot know 100% if an LC is good or not by visual inspection.
Test jars must be shot up and grown out.

Alright, I see what you did now. You just made an LC and inoculated it with a piece of grain. If your grain was clean and healthy to begin with you could still be good. Give it a few more days to thicken up then make some test jars with it.
GLC generally refers to just Myc suspended in water. No sugar.
Contams love sugar water.
I've never actually seen a person just drop a piece of popcorn in an LC.
Only one way to find out if it worked.

Yeah the grains were fine. And my method was sterile. I have a spare jar of grains so I'll knock that up in a few days. I'm. Confused on the meaning of glc then. You're. Talking about shooting sterile. Water. Into. The grain. And sucking it back up right. Sorry for. All the. ......... my phones gaaaaay

Yes, shoot it in a fully colonized grain jar...shake it up...suck it out

Seriously? You opened a sterile jar (thus making it unsterile), and put it in an LC, which you had to open, thus making it also unsterile? And you did all this because you didn't want to do what several experienced growers with lots of success said to do?

GLC on this site refers to this.
Use a big syringe. you knock myc off of the colonized grains into the water, end up with all the LC you need.
What OP made is just called LC around here. Many people do not like it.
They feel that a jar of sugar water that you have to add something to and then wait a week for it to grow is just asking for a problem.
It seems much better to start off with clean water that already has all of the myc you need in it. No waiting. Less chance of contamination.
Good luck whatever you want to do OP.
