Popcorn jars colonized too fast!
    #23173481 - 04/30/16 05:41 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

My popcorn jars have been fully colonized for about 3 days now. I won't be able to mix my spawn for another week. Is there a time frame that they can stay in the jar? I shook them once at about 75%. I read you can shake them again to stall them out? Any suggestions?

Popcorn always looks nasty but those look sketch even for popcorn. What did you use to inoculate? In any case you need to wait for the tops to fill in a bit better. So they ain't done just yet.

I think they look fine. This is the 3rd time I've done it this way. I used a syringe of B+.

They might be okay. I never said they were toast. But they do look sketchy. But what do I know, I have only knocked up a few thousand spawn jars, but I only did popcorn  a half dozen times before I got sick of it :shrug:

Anyway once the tops finish you can put em in the fridge for a day or two to stall em or just leave em be. A couple days won't hurt.

Alrighty. Thanks for the suggestions. Maybe they look sketch because it's been about a week since recovery from shaking them? Idk? Look normal to me.

Popcorn will colonize fast but it's more surface vs inside the kernels.  Due to that, you can leave it to eat/consolidate for quite some time.
