constant problems
    #22380982 - 10/14/15 09:30 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

ive tried the brf tek 10 times with very very VERY slow mycelium growth. but no contams. i follow the pf tek to a tee. fae, jars are kept at room temp in a closet. spores from the spore lab. i use a pressure cooker for an hr. i clean everything. and still it takes the jars at least 2 months before the mycelium covers the outside of the jar... let alone the inside. idk what else to do. after about a month the brf cake shrinks up in the jar. the top dry layer falls down and it just stops growing and i go to try again. im close to ordering a kit but i really dont want to. thanks a lot guys:)

I would guess too dry or too cold. Did you use 50% verm/ 25% brf/ 25% water? Mid 70's

Did you say FAE?

A few possible things:
-describe how much of each thing you put in your jars before PCing.
-list/link the resources you've used so far
-implicating the place where you got your spores in the felony/crime you've chosen to commit is against the rules here, should probably edit that out of your post.
-since you have a pressure cooker have you considered just trying grains to bulk instead?  Some say it's harder but it might be easier for you to find success that way.  If I tried going back to cakes I'd probably find it frustrating comparatively.

You're going to have to clarify this a bit more to me...
