My first attempt to grow mushrooms.
    #19115951 - 11/10/13 05:05 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Hi everybody!

I hope you're having a good time.
So I lurked here reading for quite some time and decided 3 weeks ago to create my first BRF jars (PF tek).

Unluckily, this first attempt is a complete fail.
All my jars are contaminated, here are some pics below.
I haven't purchase my spores from a sponsor here and that may be a cause to this fail; I think I managed to sterilize everything correctly, I've been really clean all the way... Maybe it was my syringe.

Contaminated jars:


By the way if you could tell me which kind of infection this is it could be cool! Thanks.

Here is in what I put my jars for them to colonize a bit faster:
My chamber:


(Tub in another tub with heated water to 80F).

So now I'm about to make a second attempt... I'm a bit less patient this time (it took a really long time to make all those jars), so i think I'll go with some of this: Out-Grow BRF

And inoculate it with a serynge from one of the sponsors... A canadian one preferably.

So if you have any advices please feel free to let me know!

Peace! :laugh:

Welcome and good luck.

My advise is to read, read, and read more
I followed EvilMushrooms Tek

http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/16779361

So far I have been good through 3 flushes.

There are a lot of proven teks here.  All us noobs have to do is follow them.  :smile:

Peace

Thank you for your fast replys!

So yes I'll be sure to get my next spores from a sponsor. I'll check the sponsor forum to find a good one in Canada.

The foil under my rings was to prevent the water when pasterizing to enter the jars... I didn't read correctly at first so I placed the foil UNDER my rings... Nothing bad I guess I just inserted my seringe through it.

Any thoughts about buying the pre-sterilized BRF bags instead of using jars? Is it a good way to save some time and trouble?

Thanks again! :laugh:

the foil goes on top of everything so you can remove it after sterilizing

Sponsors are key, they even give you extra stuff if you treat them nice and pay attention! I Just got 6 spore syringes for 6 bucks :smile:
