I need HELP ASAP
    #3668094 - 01/23/05 02:19 PM (19 years, 2 months ago)

I came home and thought my jars were growing fine. But then when reading up I saw it says everything should be fully white. Alof my jars are coered in a green color that has a rainbow like reflectiveness to it. Is this all comtamination of is it OK?

Green isn't good.
If they have a green contam..you need to dump them...and start over.

WOW...thanks for all the fast answers. I stored them in a draw out of pretty much and light for about 2 wees while I was away. I will try to post a pic. Should I have put it in light, and if so when?



This pic is a number of days old, but you can see the general issue. It is much more rainbow like now, especially when you rotate it.

I know people say it is bad to do, but I bought both the pre-made jars and spores off of E-Bay. Which do you think was the problem, the jars, which looked pretty professionally done, or the spore syringe. I guess I took the lazy way out in buying the jars premade, but I figured it was a tough and long process to make them yourselves. But th jars came from a professional place, that was also selling a few things on e-bay, but it had a reall mushroom coltivation website/store. Which makes me think it was the spore syringe. But who knows, well hopefully someone here does.

buying from ebay is a big no no. just read up on how to make them its pretty easy. and the syringe, im sure you can find one from the sponsers for the same price or cheaper than you paid for them.

I will definetly be taking that advice next time. But any word on if my jars or good or bad? I have heard talk of people here on the board hooking people up with spores. If mine are bad can anyone help me out with some super potent spores for the next attempt I make.

Also, here are two more close up pics of one of the jars. There are two pics. The first is with the flash, which kind of makes everything look whitish. And the second id with no flash, and gives a much better representation of the true color of the jar contents. Although it seems more gren in real life.

OK, so its seems they are no good. What do you thik was my mistake. The jars? The spores? Keeping them in a draw with no light for almost 3 weeks? Giving no light at all? Any advie would help.

this is the most important link i will give you http://www.shroomery.org/index/par/3
read everything here at least 3 times EVERYTHING. light doesnt effect contams in anyway shape or form. seeing how you are not enlightened on how to do this yet i would guess its your sterile techniques. maybe the syringe. now once you click on my link make sure to read the PF TEK at least 5 times and understand everything there is to understand about it and you will succeed.

Can I reuse the jars if I wash the shit out of them, or am I better off just chucking them fully?

yes you can reuse them. dont just wash them though. soak them in bleach wash by hand and then put in dish washer. when you take the substrate out of jar make sure to wear a mask as to some contams can cause harmfull effects on your body.

Wash them out yourself with some bleach (diluted per the instructions on the bottle) and then run them through the dish washer on "HOT" and they should be fine. Bleach and heat kills everything.

maybe you should try doing some research, no offence but, you don't sound like you have done any at all and that seems to be your problem. The Pf Tek is a good place to start and the process is not that hard and doesn't take that long. The supplies you need are very cheap, or atleast they where for me at lowes, and if you can find a pressure cooker at a thrift store or ask around if anyone has one laying around that you can borrow, you will probly spend less money doing it yourself than you did buying the premade stuff.

good luck on your next try.
