We went everywhere looking for the widemouth halfpints. Nobody had them in stock. We even suggested that companies stock them to the store managers lol. My Gf wants to grow edibles as well and sell them to the nice resteruants around here. We may have to order widemouth. Walmizzle had widemouth pints but I read that colinization would be a lot slower so we went with what was available.




I live in GA too and found them at Ace.  Use the check availability tab, they will also send it to the store free shipping http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3376864

I think your problem is when doing the syringes, I always do them inside a glovebox or buy spore syringes from a good vendor instead of buying the spore prints but these are my other procedures to assure everything else is contamination free:

I buy my rubber injection ports on ebay, the redones are very cheap and they work great, I buy the micropore tape on any drugstore but you need to drill 1/4" holes to put the injection ports on the lids then when Im about to inject the spores I wipe the needle with isopropyl alcohol and then put a drop of the alcohol over the injecion port and pass the needle through the drop as it goes into the port, that way I never have any contams at all and I do the injections in non-sterile environments whatsoever, of course I pressure-cook my jars before for at least 1 hour and make sure the lids are tight (vapor escapes through the two 1/4" holes covered with micropore tape).




Injection ports are cheap! Definitly going to stock up on those bastards! I think you are correct about making the syringes and thats where the problem occured. Every other jar we flamed sterilized and it would burn the needle leaving soot and we would wipe with alcohol. That may have been a contributing factor also. Thanks man for all the helpful info. I will put it to use next grow in a few weeks. Maybe some of these will make it!

Yes agreed and new that from the start. Unfortunately I live in Ga and cannot for the life of me get a spore syringe from the vendors I wish so I do what I can.

I've got a question as well. I'm a noob so this may sound stupid. Why are having contaminated cakes so bad? Why is it so important to get rid of them immediately? What does a contamination even look like?

You should use the search function to learn everything you want to know about that, but basically having a mold contamination specifically can spread spores around the room/area you grow in and contaminate your house, bacteria contaminations aren't as bad, a lot of people fruit those anyways. And it can look like a lot of different things, blue/green/spider web looking shit, just look at pictures on here. If your mycelium is anything but a nice pure white (yellow in it can just be metabolites) it can be a contamination.
