Probably contamed these spawn jars--should I PC again?
    #22381142 - 10/14/15 10:09 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

I just finished inoculating three spawn jars, first time with bulk grains. Except something went wrong. The lids have one hole stuffed with polyfill, and I didn't quite catch on to the concept of how to slip the needle to the side past the polyfill without pushing it through. This happened with the first two jars, only idea I had was to open the lid and push the polyfill back in and replace the lid with my fingers. I did this in a still air box with a soaked towel at the bottom.

So I removed the lid entirely during inoculation. Will they definitely germinate mold or something before my mycelium can beat it? I didn't quite understand the expunging part either--just squirted 1/2cc on top of the grains towards the glass, so the same place exposed to contams.

They gotta be PCd again, right? Any tips on the one hole polyfill method?

You can inject straight through polyfill (I've done it on a number of jars and haven't had one contaminate yet), but as long as you were quick and careful there's no reason opening the jar shouldn't work either.  G2G can be done in a SAB, and that's as open as it gets.

It's common practice to take off the lid, tip the jar and drop 3 drops Max of solution down one side. Then put the lid back on. Though I dont do that. Agar ftw
