Do thsy smell bad after you dump em? I dosent sound like a yeast contam because that turns slimey. How do you prep your grains, mabey there just way too dry? I always get growth in 2-4 days. Do you use an incubator?

when you are trying to grow from grain you need to start your spores on agar or in karo water. that will make things a lot easier. BTW, nice to hear your buying from a sponsor!

if you start the grain with live myc then you will be successful, well, at least if you do everything right. but you really do need to start grain with myc.

if you can't get karo to work then try malt.... it works faster(and better IMO).

yeah it's possible, but it's slow as fuck! give the malt a try, i think you'll like it. it can be purchased online at brewery sites. P.S. try the sponsors first.... i think one of them may have malt.

I think a lot of people might be missing the obvious. I have often gotten spores that aren't viable. My theory is that during shipping they reached thier critical death temperature. Sounds bad, but its true.
-------------------- "There is a world beyond ours, a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible. And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand. I ask them and they answer me. When I return from the trip that I have taken with them, I tell what they have told me and what they have shown me." -- Mazatec shaman

i think that even at deadly temps a few spores would survive. BTW, do you post at lucidmind?

I agree try rye. Spores start just fine from grain but it takes 2 weeks instead of one. Maybe your just not seeing growth yet after a week...keep the jars a little longer but you should see growth after 3-5 days with grain. My cambos didnt show up for over a week though. Lite corn syrup might not work, the stuff they take out to make it lite would make myc grow better. Also could be your water content if you are just adding the WBS and water to jars then PCing, or whatever your doing. Follow Magashs tek exactly (soak AND simmer) and you should do fine. Also try honey in water if not malt.
