Mono jars not colonizing, any ideas?
    #25163124 - 04/24/18 07:15 PM (6 years, 8 months ago)



I spawned 8qts of colonized oats into a Brick (650g) of pasteurized coir on 4/15.  I didn’t have room for another mono tub so after I mixed the spawn and coir up I put it into clean quart jars with the hopes that they’d colonize and I could just fruit them from the jars. 9 days and there is 0 signs of colonization. Any thoughts? I figured I’d see SOME SORT of growth but I got zilch from every single jar.

Either lack of gas exchange, subs to wet, subs too dry, bacterial spawn, or any combination of aforementioned issues.

I have a 1/4” hole in each lid with a strip of micro tape over it. I guess I figured since the oats colonized this way, why can’t the substrate?
I pasteurized the coir using bods Bucket TEK the same way I did for 4 monotubs, to field capacity.
Basically I prepped it the same way as 4 monos I have that produced good first flushes.
I just put the mix into jars instead of a tub.

I suppose they could be bacterial but man I thought they looked pretty clean.
