New time starting out going on my first grow. Pretty experienced with sanitizing and proper sterile techniques from my personal winemaker so thought I'd try a bulks wbs to coir/Verm grow. Will be updated pics of bags when get home from cottage.

Got a pic of my four homemade bags I did here. Unfortunately I got a pressure cooker to do the but realized after it was going. It was dented so wasn't holding pressure couldn't return at that moment. So I just steamed it good for 1.5 hours well say and hopefully they got it good enough. Wipe injection port with alcohol sterilized needle and injected each with 2.5cc of b+ syringe. Done on Saturday so well wait till weekend and see how they are.

Can you see that picture? How do you upload normally. My iPhone couldn't and it wouldn't work on my laptop as a .jpg either.

There's a button under your username near the top of the page that says Pics. It'll take you to the picture management page where you can upload photos. Although I haven't been able to copy/paste a link of the photo using an iDevice, making it damn near impossible to share. Might have to upload from a desktop/laptop.

I've never steamed in place of sterilizing. But I'm pretty certain I've read that it takes about 6-8 hrs if your steaming grains.

- its advised not to inoculate grains with spores. its advised to inoculate from clean agar. - 1 syringe could last you a life time, if you grow out your cultures on agar. - whole foods sells agar agar in the asian section

not at all with... agar you can visually inspect your culture and clean it up if necessary with LC you cant tell if it is contammed or not without testing it on agar or grain,pf jars and how did you plan to make your LC? the only good way to do it is to get a clean culture on agar then use a wedge to noc your LC in a SAB and whatever you do don't use a MS syringe to do your LC or you will fail 99% of the time

i suppose could try agar it doesn't look too much harder. It seemed seemed to me lc would be better kind of because not having to open up the containers and your bags to use rather than I can just suck out with a needle. I read about contains with lcs and was planning on testing before

Could make a still air box pretty easy out of a 4gallon bucket I get can get from work id think. Just seems like a lot riskier than making a decent sized lc testing it then have a bunch after you know it's good

Agar is a much better tool to have under your belt than liquid cultures. LCs are notoriously bad for beginners.
Will save your self lots of time and effort if you start an LC from agar rather than store, too. Spore to LC has a very low success rate. I highly advise against putting all your eggs in the LC basket for the time being.
