I just got 4 jars from the store... the whole reason I bought the premade jars was to avoid this very thing, lesson learned!

Here is another. You can really see the difference between contam and mycelium. Keep us updated. Theres nothin worse than having someone quit because they got contamed the first try. Do you have a pressure cooker? Cause honestly that looks like something that happens from not being properly sterilized. But it could be your print/syringe as well

Yeah, honestly just get urself a pc. Look at thrift stores or those mom and pop health food stores, they have used ones a little cheaper. I got lucky when i was shopping for one but you def. Need one if your gonna give it a go otherwise it makes this hobby veeeery expensive and labor intensive trying to get sterile grain for inoculation. Once fyou get one tho its open season. Because IME eeeeverything else can be made or modified for a less than sterile environment but its mando that you start sterile

Nope it takes way more than one failed attempt to make me quit!!!
I bought 4 new jars today, ordering syringes tonight and I'll start rereading everything I've read so far.

Agreed, makes perfect sense...if step one is messed up there is no where to go, I have to go through threads on doing the PC step since I didn't have to do it before....and yes I have a pressure cooker, don't tell my wife what I'm using it for

Get a cubensis for that. And make your tek sterile, then you could grow on a shoe if you want. Cubensis naturally resist contamination when they are fully Colonized. You just have to get them there.

All cubes are the same. A cube is a cube. They just have different names on them. I prefer Orissa tho..
