Do this look contaminated?
    #25155057 - 04/21/18 10:47 AM (6 years, 8 months ago)

Was wondering if this looks contaminated? Noticed that have some stuff on the top of liquid and not sure if its just myc growing or bacteria? Also reason I'm concerned is that out of 4 LC this is the only one that has the specs on top, however thisis b+ where the other 3 are for stones so don't know if this LC has the specs because it's b+

This was made with agar. Started with spore syringe. Did a total of three transfers where third agar stage went into liquid culture.

On reason I'm concerned is that I did draw out 3 syringes about a 7-10 days ago to test on test jars/bags they look fine, however seeing that growth start a couple days ago has me concerned

Well. Introducing the syringes to the culture could've contammed it.
Keep tabs on it unless someone more knowledgeable says otherwise.

I'll mix it up once every couple days, the LC is about a month old.



Just thinking on a side note is it possible to pull out a little health growth from one of my sealed grow bags and use that to nock up a new liquid culture?

I would only do that if the bag was ready to be birthed.

My idea was to just insert a clean needle threw the self healing port and just pull in a piece that's the thickness of a 18g and then pull it back into the syringe so I can then swap out the needle for a fresh sterial one and then inject it into a new fresh pressure cooked lc.
