First time grower need advice
    #24870779 - 12/27/17 02:19 AM (7 years, 22 days ago)

Hey Guys!

So I inoculated six PF jars 15 days ago with an LC made from a B+ spore syringe. I used silicon injection ports and a syringe with polyfill for FAE. My problem is that there are lot of water droplets in my jars, even puddles.
Maybe i stuffed my polyfill too hard and the water vapor cant escape? Should i still dunk them after i birthed them?

Ok. So next time skip the silicon. All u need is polyfill. Or with cakes u can just use dry verm atop the cake with 4 holes in the lid. Verm is the filter if u do it like that.

About the water, u gotta get water content right b4 loading the jars. Squeeze ur mix till only a drop or 2 of water comes out. Thats when its ready. Pooling water is bad, usually bacteria. If i were u, i would start over from scratch. Do multiple jars so u have room for error even if ur only trying to grow a lil bit. Hope that helped a lil. Good luck.

Use the exact 2:1:1 ratio and you'll be just fine. When the myc starts to colonize and digest, you will see small amounts of moisture in the the jars. This will be amplified if you have temp swings that are causing added condensation. A little is not unusual, but puddling water on the bottom can be problematic. Your's look a little moist, but keep them in a 70 degree room and they'll do just fine.

Skip all the silly shit and just use dry verm for the filter in PF Tek. No FAE needed for cakes in jars, so lose the poly as well.

Contrary to the previous advice, I'd birth those cakes, dunk, roll and fruit those bitches. :crazy2:

Those jars look fucked. Look extremely bacterial
