Have you removed those plastic arm sleeves from your SAB? They are not necessary and WILL harbor contams. I always work with a fresh pair of tyvek sleeves that run from my wrists to my biceps.

I know. But it just so happens we cleaned the bathroom so I decided to do it in there it was cleaned thoroughly and I sprayed bleach cleaner rite before. I put the SAB on my sink. The jar I made for my brother is the only jar I did in the SAB in the bathroom and it's the healthiest jar

Yea I also got rid of the sleeves for the most part it was causing more problems than not. So I've found no sleeves and bleach the hell outta my bathroom and noc in the SAB had the best result so that's what ill keep doing

this made me lol.
when you flush the toilet, shit/piss particles go everywhere in the room.
just turn off all the fans, and a/c for a couple minutes, turn your sab over so its open, spray soap water above it a few inches so it rains down inside it and on the table. Have a clean towel placed on the table, then you flip the SAB over, stuff should already be where you plan on having the SAB and innoc(flame between each jar). Just like that and youll be fine.
and Yes, 3 10cc syringes is way too much, you only should have used/needed 1. Like you said, lesson learned, just don't make the same mistake again.
OH! one of the most important parts when making the jars is to MAKE SURE after putting the verm/BRF mixture in the jar, before adding the dry verm layer, WIPE DOWN THE SIDES OF THE JARS. You must do this man, really important.
EDIT
if you don't have tyvek sleeves, you can just use disposable gloves and a longsleeve shirt, and tape the glove openings under your longsleeves. take a shower before and brush your teeth. I use this method and I have never had a contamination *knock on wood*

If you inoc in the bathroom, turn the hot water in in the shower to get the room steamed up. Mold spores can't float around in that shit. Just a thought

Good idea.
I PC my jars now I'm storing them until Friday when I inoculate them should I store them with the tin foil on or off

I would take it off because water usually sits between the lid and the foil

I would try to avoid doing this in the future. PC them before you go to bed, then innoc them in the morning. Last time I steamed my jars, I waited about 4 hours and they were back to room temp, just a thought.

They are all sterile now sitting up in the cupboard with tin foil off and I wiped the jar top to remove any moisture. I'm hoping my spores come early and get here tomorrow. I read on another pf tek guide to PC the jars a couple days before and see if any growth or smell occurs

man you are really excited to learn!
take it one step at a time man, I suggest if you want to start something else besides the jars, make it agar.
did you download the lets grow mushrooms vids for 8$?

I've got alot on the go i really enjoy it. I'm actually obsessed! It keeps my mind busy. I've got jars colonizing and I've got 12 jars pressure sterilized ready to noc up tomorrow I've got my kombucha rehydrating tonight and I've got my WBS soaking. I'm dabbling in all of it I love it this is my new and only hobby I've found my passion & it's all because I happend to stumble upon the shroomery! I forgot how much I loved fungus as a teen and just the spirituality and mystique just going out and exploring and finding fun things in nature.

You can use grain as spawn its a lot easier even for first timers like us.
You can use the felt to make new modified at jars as the filter

Grain is just as easy as brf. But you would need a decent size PC

Guys I nocke up popcorn just for fun when I did my jars now I have 6 myc spots. These are my only surviving GT spores HELP. Wtf do I do. Should I shake the jar or let em grow more?
Hey guys. As some of you may know I tried some jars and most of them contaminated and some of them did nothing. I was experimenting with popcorn around the same time and I inoculated a jar of it with GT and I forgot about it because I nocked it up to soon the jar was still warm so I wrote it off as a loss. Today I stumble upon it and there's 6 little myc spots!!! This is the only Golden Teacher spores that worked and it was an accident lol should I shake the popcorn up or let it grow more? There's 6 little dots. I might be able to get gt after all
