THis has hit a quite a few jars from the ass end of a bag of penningtons. ANy ideas? anyone have contam from old lids? I soaked the jars in bleach water even.

hahaha. "my mother is a retired microbiologist and swears 45 minutes are 15 psi will sterilize anything." you are funny. you need to read stamets "growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms".

Call Gerber baby foods and ask who their head Microbacteriologist was for 20 years, I' ll bet yoo 100 dollars the initials will be P.B.

ok...so my thread is turning into a "how long should you sterilise something before it's sterile"...
In think(and i do also know about microbiology and plant tissue culture) the required time depends on:
a) if it are liquids or solids
b) the amount of substrate in a container
Liquids require only brief sterilisation, solids require longer (beacuse liquids conduct heat much better, and don't have small cavities)
The more substrate is in a container, the longer it will take for the heat to penetrate to the core..
I believe that exposure to 121oC for 45 minutes will indeed sterilise anything.....but before the core of the substrate has reached that temperature may take quite some time.
I think you are both right...but you both mean a different thing....

VERY well said, Una. 45 min@ 15 psi WILL sterilize anything---BUT it all depends on density and mass---to achieve temps at the core of whatever is being sterilized times NEED to be adjusted.
Una, This is an excellent thread!! I commend you for your efforts to educate the masses and your efforts to save YOUR thread.

Hi,
Don't you think adding oat is really necessary? I think one can get contams if does not work in really sterile environment. You shouldn't put your culture outdoor until spawn is fully colonized also... When you use pure woodchips, you don't have to keep it home and wait till all is colonized...

No but it speeds up colonisation dramatically. It also produces thicker and more luxurious mycelium. Instead of oatmeal you can also use bran.
I think one can get contams if does not work in really sterile environment.
True, but since we have a laminar flow cabinet (really sterile environment) this is no problem.
You shouldn't put your culture outdoor until spawn is fully colonized also...
No you shouldn't...Of course we let the spawn fully colonise before using it outdoors. Indeed if the woodchips are not supplemented putting them outdoors before 100% colonisation should pose less problems..

Nice Job Una,
I was curious did you use your wood spawn for a substrate or did you use it to spawn more wood? How deep is your substrate layer?
Thanks

The spawn was used to spawn more small wood chips. These small chips were soaked for 24 hours. Also bigger pieces of wood (10 x 2 cm) were thrown in (these were soaked for some days).
I estimate that the bed is 25 cm deep.

Awesome, I might try growing some flying saucers sometime soon... you should put this info togethor in a nice little tek guide or something if you haven't already... I'm saving this to my shrooming archive though ; )
