Spore Syringes

I am all set to go, just received my spore syringes, but I am confused as to how much to inject on each side of the jars. There is a label on my syringe covering the last gradiations, I can see 1 thru 8; are those CCs?
One syringe will do how many jars?
I was planning on putting a few layers of aluminium foil on top of each jar, but I am open to suggestions.

a few drops. the less the better. never ever do more than 1 of those marks into a single jar. thats a CC or a ML.

Thanks for the response. I ordered spore syringes, I received 4 syringes in total. Each one has at least 800 cc is in it. So, is this to say that these will last a very long time, no?

yep 800cc would inoculate 800 pf cakes. 4x800cc is 3200cc so that;s like 3.2 liters or almost a gallon

Apparently, I should try 8 jars the first go around then....... How many would you recommend in the prescribed sized SFC, I was going to start with 4, but since I have plenty, seems like I should go 6 or 8. ...that's a lot of entertainment!

Anyway, forget all thatt cc ml stuff how many cakes did you noc up your first time, I was planning on four, but as was stated above "20" and it is easy to see that a microculrure on themselves in the sgfc would be totally conducive to the project. I look forward to serious input into this topic of helping this noob to have a successfull first batch. I received 4 syringes of Cubensis. At first, I was going to use these wide mouths that I had in my garage, but afterwards, from the same box, I noticed that there were smaller ones there and they seemed more practical as I studied a how to video on Youtube.
Once I collect all of my jars and count them up, I will be ready. The original question was how much to put in each, apparently it is only a couple of drops in four or five places, but not more tham 1 ml in each jar. Correct?
Also, I was planning on waiting a week before nocking em up in order to see if any other cultures are developing.

It would have been really easy for someone to step up and say that normally spore syringes come in syringes with 10 c.c.s, and that you only inoculate each hole with about an eighth of a c.c.
This is what forums have reduced to; people's egos in the way of diesseminating information and helping a person with little to no experience in whatever the forum subject is. I see it all of the time.
The company that I purchased the syringes from put their label right over where you would read the gradiations of the syringe, so it was difficult to discern how many c.c.s were in the syringe, but without seeing the gradiations, it made it impossible to disperse the liquid into my jars, that is until I was able to peel away the stickers. (of course they used the paper ones making it more difficult. I put them in the dark for 3 days, inoculated yesterday - the jars are in a dark place.

I hope you used a full c.c. per jar like most people in this thread suggested. I've never used less, but best of luck.
The whole colonizing jars have to be in the dark is an old peice of info. I leave mine on a shelf that just gets normal room light, not to much.

Agreed. I think when I did them I split a cc between the 4 holes.

I sterilized my jars on Nov 18th. I left them in the dark for 4 days. I inoculated around the 22nd. I have 3 jars showing mycelium growth, and my grow buddy has all 4 of his jars showing growth, I used several different sized jars, what size jar is recommended? I guess it will be a few weeks now before I get them into the SGFC. Since I used several small jars also, I only injected them in the middle, and so, if there is any growth, I can't see it because it is growing from the center out.

Recommend jar size is right in the tek. Hope you read it. Because it also talks about how incubation in the dark is like 20+ years outdated

Gotcha, I guess that is always the frustration on forums, is that the noobies don't read the TEKs etc and then ask all kinds of questions that could've easily been answered.....
Can you send me a link to that particular TEK that you mentioned? My babies in the dark, so far, are going gangbusters.
As a noobie, I thought it would be great to have my own ongoing thread to discuss the process of noobie to tripster.Or, will this lead me right into the hands of the prying eyes of law enforcement?
I plan on reading all of the teks soon as my next attempt will be rye berries, bulk subsrate, and a monotub.

If I have the option of leaving my windows open near my SGFC, would that be an asset, or a detriment? On one hand, I think the airflow would be better, but on the other hand, I could be bringing in contaminants and get lesss subsequent flushes. Anyone?

I do not think you need to open that window. They way I understand it, the SGFC works because of the air movement created inside the chamber, from the perlite evaporating.

I started a new batch today even though my first batch isn't in the SGFC yet. I read the tek on pressure cooker, last time, I let the jars stay in there for one hour, the tek talked about putting a weight on the little thing at the top or taping it closed and only about ten minutes. Question: Should I pressure cook them for an hour? I start in on high, get it up to where it is steaming, then I back off on the heat so as to keep it hissing....

In addition, I haven't found too much concerning leaving my PF Cakes in the dark as opposed to the light. Mine seem to be filling up my jars nice and white in the dark where I have kept them. They have been in there for two weeks. My other question is; if a forum is a forum, then why is it so tough to get questions answered as opposed to forum members just telling you to read the stickies. If someone wanted to just go onto the the internet and read, then we wouldn't need forums...... This forum, by the way, is no different than any other. That being said; no matter what I am attempting to learn about; I always seem to develop questions that are just outside the norm; like about having fresh (outside) air in the room where my SGFC is.........

So far so good, as you can see from the pics. I nocked em up around Nov.22, so this is two weeks after. My SGFC is ready and waiting. This site has so much info pertaining to mycology,it is amazing! Thanks for your input.

Out of six cakes that were birthed on 12/28/2017, this is what I have so far, and I have a question pertaining to the biggest one and maybe all of them; Should I pick these off now?
The biggest one looks as though there is somewhat of a veil gthat is open... please comment.
Thanks

No, don't pick now, that is still far from done. You will just be screwing yourself out of yield.

I'd wait until veil breaks before picking that.
In the past I've had cakes which throw off a couple of monsters early one, then more even pinning happens. Not sure why?

They do continue to grow and add weight after the veil breaks, up to the point of spore production. Even then you can still see noticeable growth.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
So... that little ripping part isn't really a veil..... and all three of these... just let'em grow??
The other important factor is that I live in the warmest area in the entire U.S. but it has been cold and so these cakes have not been in the optimal temperature range.
Mostly been in the low 60's.
I get real envious looking at pics of cakes with a bunch of shrooms fanning out from the bottoms of the cakes.
Is it better when I do, to pull and twist or use an exacto?

Should this be picked off of my cake yet? I got really fat at the base, and it is very white and fluffy, is that normal?

Edit your post instead of triple and quadruple posting. Its annoying and it bumps your thread unfairly to the top. Harvest when the veils of the largest fruits have torn from the edge of the cap, or earlier if you like the way closed caps look better but it will lower your yield slightly.
