Something moving through jar eating the sugar
    #24029020 - 01/21/17 07:42 PM (7 years, 9 days ago)

Hey all, I am doing a good job of keeping contams like mold and discolorations out of the colonizing jars (BRF, PF Tek), but I have been experiencing something weird over time now.  It appears as if there is something moving through some of the jars eating all the sugar along the way, it looks like a dark vacant streak through the jar, only leaving behind the vermiculite.  I have never found the insects, or what ever it is that is causing this.

I have seen this with 3 jars out of 30.  I think something is getting through the inoculation holes at the top and working its way through eating all the sugar along the way.

I have always used masking tape on the holes during boiling the pot of jars (i dont have a PC).  Then I have always taken the tape off before inoculating the jars, and leave it off while colonizing.

So perhaps I should put a breathable tape over the holes during colonization to prevent this?  If so, what tape should I use for this?

Why is there sugar in your PF jars?

I dunno, looks like they may have just separated and settled, I'm not seeing anything that looks consumed?

That last cake looks a little suspect, am I correct in thinking it looks a bit bacterial int hat wet spot?

Does not look healthy...but if you absolutely have to know the first step would be to build a SAB and take some samples to agar.
