Moisture content is very important to speedy colonization too wet and contams will have the advantage. Growers should always strive to optimize there conditions in the favor of the shrooms. Did you make a mistake is that the reason for the thread? Get the most bang for the buck and do more jars next time with the syringe that way when/if one contams or whatever you'll have a nice reserve and hopefully some extraordinary speedy jars as well. GL

maybe a way to aleviate the annoyance of having to babysit your heating pad, you could plug it into a time set on a 1 hour on 1 hour off setting and wrap your jars with bath towels to help trap in heat. i did this with my cakes and it kept it at a steady 80-84F, which was fine with me. ideally there are better ways to incubate, but if your using a heating pad, and wanna try to bypass the shutoff, this might be your way.
oh and yea, shave it all off

Well, the problem with that is the pad only comes on when you press the button. But Im not even sweating the heat. It stays Around 75~f in there and seems to be doin ok so far so, Ill just let em do theyre thang. Thanx for the suggestion though.

Trouble with that is you'll lose one of your pinning triggers (temp drop) which will result in less than perfect pinset. I'd recommend putting them in a light tight container and place it on top of your fridge, that should help alot. GL

Not to sound like a brown noser Hyphae, But I just love it when you reply to one of my posts. Now, as to the light situation. Are you saying that they should be light proof? Also, I cant put them on top of my fridge because I have 3 cats that just love to knock down and break anything made of glass. Also, I have 1 cat that I have to watch especially, because he just love's mushrooms and has stolen a stem once before and joined me on a trip.lol. I hope you post again here Hyphae.Or anyone else for that matter.

Agnostic. What you dont seem to understand is the fact that I didnt think I would get faster or better colonization by over injecting. This happened because this is my first attempt whatsoever at cultivating fungi. This was an avoidable incompetence on my part. This WAS NOT done on purpose. And no, I DONT feel stupid. I just chalk this little experience up as EXPERIENCE.lol. Thanx for the post anyway.

Light tight being a cardboard box, suitcase, etc; something your cats can't move will work. As far as fuckups I've had more than my share and others as well all chalked up to learning experiences and were invaluable to my truely understanding whats what in this world, no rose colored glasses here. It is kinda scary that the majority of the people in the US as well as certain other countries live in there own little reality not seeing man for what he is, and never getting a chance to see basic instinct at it's finest.
