Afternoon my fellow shroom heads. Before I get started, yes I have checked the FAQ section. I couldn't find the answers I was seeking:/ Been "working out the kinks" for a better overall harvest, but un sure of how to properly do a few things.
1- What temp should syringes be stored at...and should it be in darkness when stored?
2- BRF jars and Grain jars. I keep them at around 75F, but unsure if they should sit in a darkness or light?
Little things like that that will really help clear my head on what to do...and hopefully make for overall better rusults.
Thank you

I am not a trusted cultivator
Store syringes in the fridge in the bag they came in if you ordered them.
If you made them put in a ziplock bag and store in fridge, I put mine there
Jars store on a shelf or in a closet, light is beneficial but some go for darkness
I think it is a personal preference

I'm gonna add that if your store your jars in 75°F ambient temp. The inside of your colonizing jars is about 80-82°F due to the mycellium creating heat...and I will also add that light is beneficial to mycellium at all stages of life (for cubes anyway).

Thank you...I wasn't sure if Mycelium wanted light or if that was just for the fruiting stage.

Ambient light on a 12/12 cycle is thought to help establish a circadian rhythm but that has not been conclusively proven. IME the differences between dark and light is so small that its not worth worrying over. Spores should be kept in darkness but the fridge is not necessary. It won't hurt nothing tho.

thank you Pasty. I had a feeling the syringes should be stored in darkness. 6 BRF jars about to be dunked and rolled, along with a rye mother jar for G2G later.
hope you're not still cranky:0)

Thank you for further clarifying that.

I don't worry about syringes getting light or not. Just keep them in the fridge till you're ready to use them.
And yes, light is beneficial in all stages, at least for Cubensis.
