You mean the solution is getting foggy? If so, that's usually a bacterial problem. A picture would be better for a good diagnosis though.

Roadkill- what method did you use to sterilize? I have a few quarts of the same stuff going, but it seems like when PC it, it caramelizes, and turns out a light to dark yellow color. It is still working, and I have since knocked up about 10 jars with the stuff, but I can never get it looking clear like that, with the profuse growth. I usually PC at 15 psi for 20-25 minutes. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks

I found that as the mycelium grows the darkness of the LC decreases. Guess the mycelium is eating the sugars.

A long time, At least 6 months IME, but from what I have read 1 1/2 years they are still okay. When it has been sitting for a very long time, I like to take a little out of the main jar, and inoculate a new LC, because after extended periods of time I like to make sure that they are healthy.
