Don't give up!

My dog's best friend has been incubating pf jars for a month now. A week ago 1 jar had 1 little growth in it. Today, 10 jars have signs of growth, and 3 of them are well on their way! Before I left for the weekend there were 9 jars, and only one of them had growth that I could even smile about.
So... If its not black and hairy, let it keep sittin there! One day you might be suprized.

I once had jars that took months to colonize. I later found that I overcooked so much that there was a hard clump in the center that wouldnt colonize. I dont know if thats what you did but just giving you something to look for.

Oh, I know that my dog's buddy did some shit wrong, but even still its nice that my patience paid off.
a) no pressure cooker. b) no BRF, used whole wheat c) no idea what i was doing.

my point was that after waiting a month, 3 jars went from a growth half the size of a dime to covering a quarter of my jar in a couple days. My growth appeared to be shit because of wrong substrate and whatnot, but its pulling through.

You may be more of a newb, but at least you've got a smurf that sucks nips. That must be a hit with the ladies.

Wow, those are tits. With the shade on them, I thought that they were breadsticks, or something.

Wow !!! Today i went to see my honey tek jars in my incubator if everything is ok and then i saw my WBS jars that i thought that were fucked up - there are few nice spots whre the mycelium is growing ... I can't belive it , and i had 1000 ideas why it doesn't work lol ... I made theese WBS jars 4 days ago and i allready see results , that's great ... I hope ill have 100% colonization in 2-3 weeks . Now i have grown to much mycelium , i have 4 WBS jars , and 2 honey teks , ill use the honey mycelium for syringes and ill case the WBS ..
One question , how long can mycelium syringes stay ? Do they need to be in refrigerator or what ?
