Just incubated my first batch ever, 6 jars of Cambodian and 6 of GWM. Have them sitting in a closet with tyvek wrap on all the walls to try to keep it as sterile as possible. Their in a bin that's sitting in water heated to 78 degrees. Any tips or advise? They should be kept in the dark the entire time their at this phase right?

use a double layer of coffie filters instead of the foil after inoculating gives better air exchange and yes keep them in the dark only time they should be in the light is when ur checking them

lighgt is fine during the colonization run and is benificial but ambient lighting and not direct but thats not to say they won't colonize just fine in the dark, you don't need to worry about your enviroment being sterile thats y you have filters, spores101 sux balls and remove the foil

Just removed the foil, and yeah i've been hearing all negative things about spores101 unfortunately thats where i got the two syringes from. I only ordered the Cambodian and they threw the GWM in for free so here's to hoping they actually work

if you have success make your own, get fifty posts and 90 days as a member and start trading in the market place! or just check out some of the shroomery sponsors

Any sponsor on here will get you the spores you need. Spores 101 has been ripping people off for a long time now, but live and learn. I hope they are at least cubes in there.
Cronicr is steering you in the right direction. Mushcrab, please read before misinforming others.

Appreciate all the help. I did see spores in both of the syringes, not some like shown on here from ralphs but i did see a few specks without a magnifier so im hoping it'll go well. I also plan on making my own if (hopefully) im successful in about two months.
