Spoiled again

Well my second batch of jars just erupted with a contaminate. I am very discouraged. I'm never going to get to shroom. I have now ordered a grow kit to try to eliminate this from happening again. Wish me luch everyone and I'll let you all know how it goes once it arrives. )0(

Measures I'm using to eliminate contam's - pc'd jars, gloves, glove box, hair tied back, alcohol wipes for syringe, kitchen counter wiped down with fantasik spray followed by bleach/water mixture, followed by an entire can of lysol spray.
This forum is my only resource since no one I know shrooms. In fact I'm the one who has taken the initiative to learn so we all can.

I dont understand how you get contams when youve done your work in a glove box. Where did your spores come from? How did you prepare the jars like, did you use the dry verm layer and wipe the extra inch of jar with clean paper towel to get the stuck-on substrate off?
How long did you pressure cook for?
Do you flame your needle?

Okay, the problem has been discovered. My roommate OPENED the jars to see if anything was happening. What a DUMBASS! Needless to say said roommate has been permanently banned from "the secret room". He's moving out at the end of the month (YAHOO!) because I can sustain my mortgage payments on my own...so when my kits arrive I'll be able to start over and hopefully be shroom'n sometime soon. Thanks for all the feedback, good and bad. Anyone got any more advice?

Dat,
What is the red flag that you are picking up on? I'm missing it. Esola can't be a 14 year old kid. Note the proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Most high school grads these days don't even bother with the "Shift" key when typing the first letter of the first word in a sentence. (Which drives me nuts.)
So there must be something in the content that's bunching your undies. What am I missing?
Thanks,
-------------------- Don't panic!

Well as for the grammar part the spell check is a valuable tool, and I'm not ragging on anyone I'm sating what i think so if you don't like it don't read it. P.S. ticktock i did not say 14 i said 15. And you know what drives me nuts? its when someone tries to correct me when they cant even correct themselves.

The important thing wasn't the age, just the point that you're being a dick.

Hi Dat,
I stand corrected. You did say 15 and I goofed by one. I really was not trying to correct you or tick you off. I was simply wondering what part of the story made you think that it was untrue. Sorry if I offended somehow.

I know I probaly come off as a dick but I'm really not, I'm just saying that you cant help someone who does not have a problem, and the story about his roomate taking the lids off the jars after they went through all the trouble to sterilize them just seemed alittle far fetched to me. And my apologies to Esol if im totally off base with my accusations, just the vibe i felt from reading your posts, Welcome to the Shroomery.
