Oven Tek inoculation for PF Tek Question
    #20590997 - 09/19/14 11:33 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

I recently inoculated some jars using the oven tek because it was recommended by the website I received the jars from now I am second guessing myself. I believe I took the proper cleanliness procedures by spraying my kitchen down with lysol as well as the air with neutra air, I also sprayed lysol in my oven before beginning the tek. I also flame sterilized with the stove top because I did not have a lighter. This is my first attempt at growing is there anything I did wrong I will post a picture once the mycelium begins growing. I also took of the tin foil covering the inoculation holes is that ok? I read a few places that the jars needed to breath and that the 1/2 in to 1 inch of verm would keep contams out. All answers are appreciated I just want to know what my success rate will be the website said they had a 99% success rate with this tek that I followed. I inoculated 6 jars.

For future reference, u need a still air box for inoculation, oven tek has been proven to be bs yrs ago. Whatever website sold u that kit told u bad advice which is pretty common. There is a list of sponsors here that are legit, use them.

Funny thing is I did use a sponsor. I used I dont know if I can link but thats part of the name and I found them on here... I hope for the best I clean my kitchen spotless weekly so I hope I didnt ruin my success rate by following the tek they provided...

Don't drop names dude, and your PF grow should never be anywhere near the oven, unless you're steaming jars on your range (which is on top of the oven).

what I don't understand is why anyone who goes through all the trouble of cleaning out an oven won't drop 10 bucks to make a SAB :shrug:

Because of the fact I had spent over 100 already and did not feel like wrecking my SGFC tote I already purchased. It just seemed tedious to have to buy another tote after I was provided with false information that made me feel like it would work without one. I mean its not that hard to sterilize an oven.

Fair enough man, but a big part of this hobby is learning from your mistakes. Making a SAB will be the best thing you ever do as far as mushcult goes. You can do g2g, agar, and have a guaranteed sterile environment for all your mycological endeavors to come. Trust me it's worth it :smile:

Yea I think I tried to be a little to simple during this first grow but I am still reading and I am seeing that some people have amazing success with this tek provided they sterilize the work area and the air in the room as I did. I also tried to keep my instruments clean while inoculating and a few people said that is the biggest factor.

This is the first time i ever heard an oven could be used to knock up jars... Ya man go with the tote sab... Youll never regret it.

Sterile techniques is golden but, to me, its the still air environment that really nails it.

There are a lot of environmental wild cards at play if you try to turn your oven into a makeshift SAB. I'm not saying it can't be done, but I made my SAB from a 6 dollar tote. The thing about using your oven is that it's open to drafts and shit. If you try it and it works then that's awesome, but that big open oven door is inviting a lot of undesirable shit in to play. FWIW I've done a few successful grows with no SAB. With PF it's more about making good lids and sterilizing your needle. You only really need a SAB if you're fucking with agar or g2g. You're safe to inoculate PF jars and grain in open air as long as your syringe is clean and you take some precautions against airborne contams getting on your needle.

These were pf jars also they had 4 small holes per jar and i put the foil right back on i think it may have worked well. I'm pretty sure lysol does work because it even says on the back it kills 99.9 of all bacteria, fungi, and viruses plus i was very thurough with it but idk it is only my first grow i will be sure to buy a SAB for next time. Im starting to think i should have just done them on the counter...

Ya, between inside an oven and a counter, id choose the latter... Best of luck sir.
