putting sterile air to the jars?!
    #20630205 - 09/28/14 11:04 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

hi
first sorry for my bad english.
i like to know if there a way to inject sterile air into the jars.
i ask because after rapid colonisation the air is consuming by mycel?!or not?

Your jars should have a filter to let mostly sterile air in. You can stick the tip of your sterilized needle in a flame and suck in sterile air that way if you must.

There should be holes in your lids no ?
It provides enough gas exchange for colonization.

you PC the jars which sterilizes everything inside, then your filter keep contams out and let gas escape through it.

yes there is a filter on the lid but the grow was extremly fast and i do not know if the gas exchange is good enough. because there slow down (i think)
mh putting a needle in a gas flame gives sterile air but without O2 right?

you cant inject this "sterile air" inside the jars, the co2 will escape through the filters, and the filters wont let any "dirty room air" in the jars.
the mycel it self creates co2 all the time, I get what you're thinking but it wont work like that.

why dont you post a pic of your jars? too fast a growth doesnt sound like mycelium to me.

ya don't need air in your jar, ya need to get rid of it and start over thats contaminated with what would appear to be mold

that jar doesnt look healthy at all to me.
and it probably halted because the grains are so wet..

so 50/50 horse poo and straw are right?!
than mix with the oats in 1:1 or can i get higher ratio say 1jar oats to 2 jars the other?
sorry for so many dumb questions.
is there a way to rescue the jar or it is lost?

you can use a higher ratio, anywhere up to 1:4 but no that jar is no good

If you are using horse poo and straw read up on pasturization if you havent yet, while your grains colonize
