5 strain, one is going

Its been a week since I prepared my jars and innoculated them. I just checked them, and from looking at them the only one i think had mycellium on it was the creeper; and its only the tiniest bit. Im using half pint jars, and followed the pF tek real close
what could be the problem? the jars are in a suitcase under my bed

No they arent supposed to smell like they are rotting. Sounds like you have a big bacterial infection....probably should start over and try to be more sterile. (that is if that post isnt a joke.)

in my incubator there is always all sorts of funny smells cause of the different grains, and other stuff that i try
how do you know what your un-colonized pf jars smell like anyways, if it is infected its cause youve been removing tape or opening the jars for a wiff.

Bingo!!!!!!!!!!!!! I fully agree. Tommy take it easy when you are first tryimg this new hobbie out. I can only speak from my first experiences. I did battle with bacteria and I only found out after 2 weeks of waiting, only to have several small patches of myc.I foolishly after 3 days started with one jar then two and opened it to have smell or what ever.....ETC... Couple tips for you. 1 Make sure you are letting your jars cool off in the PC. 2 Only remove the tape once to inocu.and don't open the jars. 3 I have found even with the most subborn spores it never takes more than 6 -7 days to show decent growth. If the spores are very fresh and the temps are between 78 and 84 deg. then you WILL see myc. growth in 24 -72 hours. sometimes less. Learn to reconize clean practices.

i never opened the jars, and they do have some small patchs of mycellium on some. should i shake the jars, ive read that some places it spreads the collinizing.
If these dont turn out, im gonna buy premades and new spores,,,

this is a little off topic but, when incubating, should the air around the jars be 80 degrees, or the jars themselves?

You should only be shaking the jar if you're using grains. Shaking the jars when following the PF tek will not do anything. The most you can do is flip the jar upside down to allow for some air exchange.
