What could a sad shroomer do, as soon as he finds out that many of his jars, didnt colonize at all, due to waterlogged (?) substrate??? Would leaving the lids off work,(so that needless water evaporates).After that, should little-sad-shroomer... re-sterilize+then re-inoculate??There is no contamination evident and the jars where loosely packed... ps: He doesnt want to loose his jars, and restart the whole process( if possible), and would try anything! Thanx .

The sad shroomer should start anew. :( Every action taken with these jars can (nearly) only end in failure.

Clean those suckers out and get another batch going. Remember what you did the first time and don't do it this time. Before long you won't even have to measure your BRF substrates, you'll have the moisture content down.

Man, that sucks.. Maybe practice w/ smaller batches until you get the hang of substrate preparation. Or, try different amounts of water in each jar to get it down. If you have a PC, grain is also a good way to go. If you pre-soak the grain, there's really no way to screw up the moisture content. Rye works great and you can get it cheap at any feed store. My foaf will not use flour anymore now that he's discovered grain.

Man...I've had so many screwups I'm about to just give up on the world of shrooming. It seems like something goes wrong everytime. I need serious help.
