My first shot
    #17332963 - 12/04/12 01:56 PM (12 years, 1 month ago)

So this will be my first grow. My question is of course how are my jars developing? These were all inoculated with a "B+" spore syringe. The cakes are BRF with a Verm top layer.  The jars are in a dark place with a temp ranging from 78F to 84F. The jars that show no growth worry me. What worry's me even more is the moist dark spot on the jars with no growth. What is your guys opinions?

Im a newb too, i started my first grow about 2 months ago and i already have like 15 g dry from 5 cakes and theyre not done flushing yet. My jars seemed to colonize at different rates but they speed up quickly. Give the jar at least a week to start to see something before you toss it. Theres really nothing else you can do but just wait.. your conditions seem fine.

I kept an entire log on here from start to finish using the same tek that i started 2 months ago.. If you want to see how i did it with pics and all here is the thread

It hasn't even been a week! This stuff takes patience. Start worrying when its been two-three weeks with no growth. Its really too soon to tell if anything has contams yet IMO

I know it is a virtue but, I see such good growth on one jar and decent growth on another. And it is my first try so I am a bit anxious :p

Yes jar 4 does appear to be doing much better on the outside than the other ones. But dont forget, you cant see the inside either,so depending on where you inoculated them some others may have growth on the inside that you cant see

Mycology is a test of patience. You will be well rewarded however, take this time to start learning new techs and such so for your next grow you will already know way more then your first grow.

I have been researching for some time now before my attempt. The only reason I post/ask is due to searching the forums. From what others have said and posted that the darker hue may be contamination.

84 is to high.  I would not have it go higher then 82 as the jar insulates them and they will produce heat.
