Re: How BADLY did I MESS UP my INOCULATION? [Re: Terpfreak]

No no no no - I inoculated my first two jars "perfectly" didn't disturb my dry verm layer, inoculated w/ needle facing glass and squirted in about 0.5cc per side.

Once I got to my 3rd jar I tried to force the needle into the too-small hole and snapped the needle in half. On these last two jars I tried to quickly unscrew my lids and shove my half-needle past my dry verm and inoculate.

Needless to say those two jars PLUS one of my "properly" inocc'd jars were fucked and got thrown away.

The one in the pic above seems to be coming along nicely though!  :letyourspiritsoar:

Hell yeah man, haha just read the story and laughed with you (: reminds me of when i started lol, everything feels so hectic. Anyways, imo your already ahead of a lot of recent posters though b/c your honest w/ yourself and didn't deny that you compromised the jars. Tossing compromised stuff will get you alot further than hanging onto it, also i'm not sure how you'll be able to get the cakes out other than breaking the jars haha. :shrug: It's a learning experience haha

edit: i'm assuming you've seen these videos? in case not though heres a link to a solid PF tek

Oh snap now I'm confused - do you not PC your jars of sub with the PF tek?





If you're using brf in your pf jars they can be steamed or pc'ed. If you use wbs, I believe they have to be pc'ed. I may be wrong on the wbs. Grinding it may make a difference, but I pc everything now just to be sure.

Small update - behold my ONE out of four jars that is so far sans contamination. The other three developed large patches of some kind of black mold type stuff and I tossed em. Well I guess fruiting one cake is enough to keep me entertained until more spores arrive.






HAHAHAHA is that a quart BRF jar?
no way the myc is going to get a hold of all of this (maybe it could have if there was some gas exchange)
PF Jars are supposed to be 4 times smaller than this man
sorry dude but dont get your hopes up for this jar, start over and read some more beforehand

and make sure you throw the contaminated jars to hell, black mold is nasty

Lol, even if that jar colonizes how are you going to get it out of the jar? It will stall though. Follow the tek with wide mouth half pint tapered jars.
