what am I doing wrong?
    #27288222 - 04/30/21 07:09 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

I injected 5ml of B+ spores into two 3 lb. bag of rye berry grain spawn. I covered it with a black cloth and kept it between 70 and 78 degrees. after a month I finally got a bit of mycelium growth, about 2 square inches. But it has been another month and the mycelium hasn't grown at all. Its not dead it just isnt growing. Why wont it colonize the bags?
Thanks in advance

Spore syringes have bacteria floating around in them. That's why everyone recommends putting spores on agar first so you can isolate clean growth. Your bags are probably bacterial. Also, no need to cover them.

I dont see any contamination. Im kinda new and have never used agar before. My first batch colonized in about a month but this time, it just wont spread.

You won't be able to see all microscopic organisms. I bet you'll see it in a couple more months if you leave the bag. Spores to grain is a no no anyways. Spores to a huge bag if grain is extra no no. Yes someone on reddit did it successfully. Someone also jumped off a building and happened to land on a mattress truck. If you want to grow mush, learn agar.
