3+ weeks for lc growth?

inoculated 3 LC jars on 6/3 and 1 just started germinating. The other 2 still show no signs of growth. What might cause such slow growth?

For starters, spores can take up to 3 weeks to germinate and show growth.
As for why the others have not germinated yet.... 
You should steer away from LCs entirely, and look down a more promising path, like agar and grain to grain transfers.

Oh really I thought it was supposed to take a week or so. Good to hear thanks. I will go agar but I just wanted to take the next step from BRF. I am going to do G2G with these LC when they are colonized.

You really should test that LC on agar before you waste grain. It is dang near impossible to have a clean spore print or syringe. When it is on agar you can see it. It won't be so evident in an MS LC.

shoot a small test jar first, my process starts with spores from the spore-master at sporeworks....and I start with a few cc's in qt then G2G from there. then I go to agar when I have a fruit body as well as take as many prints i can and those go to agar too because they arent from magic land @ sporeworks at that point unless you want another strain or your spores get damaged you should be set for a grip lol

Still nothing. Have a couple prints stashed I think I might scrape some spores into one of the jars and see what happens.
