Be very careful. A lot of wild cacti have tracking devices to stop exactly that, and how on earth are you gonna get a big fuck-off cactus cutting through customs? :rofl:

same just get a massive bottle get a heater fill it with water, turn it on full heat thats around 30C and place it in a closed insulated box with the jars not too close no direct contact

thats it should provide a decent 24-25C in the box

I think I'll give it a try, nothing to lose and it could shave so much time off my colonisation.

Let us know how you get on Josex. Ill put up a pic of the PEU that i couldnt get to germinate on the premix pda or in a lc that finally on literally the the very last few drops i had left in the syringe i got to germinate on this agar I used the two good plates and left one that i forgot about in my grow tent.

Left this plate since the end of january lol it did have much more clear rizo sections but left under 600w cfls for two months made it go a bit thick lol




Fuck to the yeah mrmazdar! :highfive: 

I bought that agar you recommended me and finally my cultures look like they're supposed to look on agar, also full colonization in ten days or less. :awepreciation:

The consistency and even the color of this agar powder is totally different from the fucky one I was using and finally I can see rhizos with this agar... again, fuck to the yeah :vibin:

I got mine from spore works in the us fractal peu and ape. All peu went no where ape seems lively on this agar run.



Can recommend sporeworks. shipping is expensive but yeah. You can get the cube  3 pack of PE PEU and APE if you want. PE trinity haha

These jars are typical canning jars. I'm quite familiar with Ball and Kerr canning jars from the states and these are very similar. They are still soda lime glass, but nice and thick, and no visible bubbles or faults are visible in the 4 dozen of these 1L and 500ml from Home bargain.

Soda lime glass it not as shock resistant to heat change as borosilicate(Pyrex) due to the chemical make up. No glass likes massive heat differences which can cause the glass to pull away from its self if it contracts in certain parts too fast.

Well the ape syring seems really clean every plate has been clean from first drop and grow really well but the peu took a whole syringe to get 3 plates and they werent great and when i put them to oats they took an age to colonise then never recovered thats every jar. APE always works well though.

Hey guys, the 59p Home bargain jars seem fine, I went to wilko after and looked at the Kilner jar's which were £2.50 and they felt extremely similar but obviously there might be a difference is glass quality.  The B&M WBS was fine as well, I left it overnight to soak and the red pellets just dissolved and I rinced the red colour out and used a sieve to get rid of the sunflower seeds and floaters.

I'm doing whole oats now which is a lot less messy but for a budget the B&M WBS seem great.

Pics for Eerin jar and B&M WBS.

Hey every jar I've done so far looks like that, this one was shaken a couple of days ago and the lumps at the top are lumps of grain clumped together.  The mycelium on my King Oyster on oats is much less thick, but I just thought it was because it was a different species.

Anyway here are some pics of the WBS vs the oats.  They both smell fine and have been colonising at a steady speed.
