You might want to consider the temperature difference between the top and bottom tubs,maybe a fan, how much heat they are producing that's going up into the tub above and so on. Also the tubs in the center row will probably have less air. Looka like your doing unmodded so it might matter more

Are these the unicorn bags I want for spawn? https://unicornbags.com/product/type-3tbox-of-1000/
I have an AIE-305HIM sealer, is it worth getting the AIE-405HIM to straight seal?

I dont no about the sealer, but if you have a +16qt PC the 3Ts are the right ones will fit up to 6qt easily

Alright, im diggin' LC's now. Thnk i got the hang of it.
Had to really smack the shit outta that Ape syringe to get that booger mass broken up and get shit distributed in there. Knocked up them germ plates again cuz there was absolutely no genetic matter on them from the first drops.
Also, i dnt knw if there is something im missing here or what but a few milliliters of lc per jar seems much better. One milliliter is like dropping in one colonized grain.

What's yr lid setup like for LC? Thinking of springing for the Whatman filters.
Also: Super quick question for flowhood folks.
If you're opening a plate and need to set the lid down, would you put it face down on the elevated rack or face up or on a alc paper towel on the rack? Closest to the filter face of course. Feel like face up would be best but I don't know if contams could potentially get on the lid due to the air flowing around the sides of the lid which could have contams on them.

Cheap and expensive plastic one piece lids with sfd stickers and rubber ships. I like the cheap ones with the silicone seal cuz they dnt unscrew so much during pc cycle.
What kind of contamination are you getting in your spawn pre-knockup? What grain? How long your plates sit around b4 you use them?

Thanks dudes, face up it is. It's almost always dusty fuzzy green mold that pretty much always starts at the top of the jar. Very rarely is it some nasty yellow mold as well.
1-3 weeks after PCing, shows up without fail in at least 30% of my jars. Uninoculated, PC allowed to cool all the way down before opening, lids screwed on tight when removing from PC, then onto shelf or in a tote. I thought maybe keeping them in a tote could help somehow but nope.
I use WBS.
No problems with my agar at all right now, I use em immediately sometimes but mostly let em chill for a week or two until I need them. It's just these damn jars, had to throw out over 100 jars worth of grain the past several months.
Appreciate the effort Feaso, thanks

Remove the sunflower seeds and see if that helps. Sunflower seeds hide shit real well.
You venting your pc, ya?

I strain off most of the sunflower seeds that come up during soak but I've read TC's say sunflower seeds aren't really a big deal and that they're not more likely to contam than anything else. Only thing I can think of is that maybe the sunflower seeds aren't getting hydrated fully and thus not getting sterilized properly? Even then any mold spores really should be dead as fuck after 2 hours at 18PSI sunflower seeds or not.
And yeah venting 15 minutes.
Bit of a head scratcher, idk if I'm missing something super obvious I've considered so many possibilities or if I'm just not meant to use plastic lids lol Regardless thanks for the input

How are these surface conditions? Do I need to increase FAE and get more evaporation? It's a 5.5 qt tupperware, one hole (polyfill) and I haven't misted. I may add another so I can better control air movement through the box by turning a fan in the room off or on.

From what I can see those conditions look pretty nice. It's not super clear when I zoom in but there's no real big drops of water right? Looks like real small tiny beads of water to me which is what I shoot for.

No overly big drops yet, but they seem to be getting bigger day by day, which is why I'm considering upping the FAE.

Probably wouldn't hurt to add another hole. Fae is always good unless it dries out everything haha. If it does dry it out to much you can always restrict the air a bit to get it where you want especially with micropore tape. I see your using polyfill witch is A-ok as well I just don't use it so don't have pointers for ya there.

What kind of PC do you have? I had some issues with grain jar contams when I first switched from my presto to my AAs... I vent for a minimum of 30 minutes now and no longer have issues

Yeah seeds donβt matter, a couple people were growing on only sunflower seeds.
If the jars are always getting mold that starts on the top then itβs some kind of filter issue. If it was something already inside the jars it normally would show up all over or on the bottom.

I put my petri lids down opening down right on the rack behind the plate.

my LC setup for free pour is just recycled glass bottles with a foil cap held on with a silicone o-ring that fits. No lid or filter.
