Germinating potentially dirty spores at low temp
    #26439673 - 01/18/20 06:00 AM (4 years, 11 days ago)

Hey I have a question, during the day here where I'm at it's around 65f at night it can drop to 57 inside the house. I made a bunch of plates and nocced em up. The spores were a bit old. The test plates have cobwed and some trich. The good plates are good but it's been 5 days and I'm not really seeing anything happen. One plate has some bacteria but I'm chilling waiting for mycelium so I can transfer. Will spores germinate at these temps? Would I fashion a jank incubator?
Also 10000+ ft in mountains.

They should germinate but if there old spores and cold temps don't  be surprised if it takes a couple weeks, the cobweb/trich could easily overrun the plates before the mycelium can gets a chance.

Inoculate multiple plates from all different places from your print, you'll get some clean spores.

Mine usually take 7-14 days before the mycelium starts growing also roughly same temps as yourself.

Applying heat will just make them sweat and condense, be patient room temp is good. I put mine in the warmest room in the house.

Thank you, yea the 2 week timer.....

The plates are clean, justa bit of bacteria on one which I'm not worried about.

I know in another week I'll have my but I'm just antsy....
