Pftek inoculation error?
    #23945736 - 12/21/16 10:46 AM (7 years, 1 month ago)

howdy, I'm new here. Doing my first grow. I believe I improperly inoculated my jars via Needle positioning. I misunderstood the directions given to me.

It seems you're supposed to place the needle between the glass and substrate. I pointed my needle more toward the center of the jar. Is this going to be a problem?

Also, the debate on colonization temps.
Mid to high 70s F vs. Mid 80s F for Cubis (zstrain). Thoughts? I'm having a difficult time with my temp control.

I'm new and learning after reading a lot over the years and watching videos. Please be kind. This is how I'll learn.

The jar should colonize fine, but you won't be able to monitor its progress like you could if it were inoculated near the glass.

The debate on colonization temps has been decided: 70-80 are ideal, but 65 is fine. Anything above 80 is not recommended because contams can grow much more easily. What's the temperature of your home? Unless it's under 65, it's fine for growth.

Yea, it should be ok. The reason they say point it to the glass is so you can catch contams early, but it'll still colonize. I keep my house around 73-74 degrees.
