AFOAF has 36 1/2 pint verm/brf jars he inocualted last sunday and when he looked at them today 32 of them had large white spots of mycelium(sp). None of the 36 jars have contams and 12 jars he didn't have enough spore water to inoculate r fine too. He was pretty happy, and told me to post this for him.

they are all ecuador cubensis. Do u know if the age of the substrate makes any difference? my friend has 12 jars that weren't inoculated and they didn't get contamed. they have been sitting around for a little over a week. could he use them in a week or two when he gets more spores or should he just make some new cakes?

TeRzMaStA - RE: Aged Substarte: Are the jars hole still covered (tinfoil)? If so contams should not be able to get to the substrate. There are two thoughts on your situation. 1. Start over - newer is better 2. Your substrate is in good condition without contams. This is good, because you know that if you get contams, it most likely came from innoculation. I wouldl use the jars.

When you say "last Sunday" do you mean the eleventh? It takes about four days for spores to germinate and another day or two before you can expect to see growth. Unless you inoculated with live mycelium, any sign of growth before four days is highly likely to be a contam. Are you sure you arn't growing mold?

YOu should look into some mass production I think i spoke to much already Tell your freind i say hi

I'm sure that it isn't mold. He inoculated them on the 4th.

Go ahead and innoc your waiting sterilized jars. There should be no prob. Dude says he has waited over a month before innoc'ing jars before w/o any problems. As long as the tape is still on them and the lids are tight there should be minimal(if any) loss of moisture.

why do you have them upside down? wouldn't that limit gas exchange?

My friend was told to flip them and make a space between the cake and the jar so there is an air pocket around the bottom of the cakes. that that will help the bottoms of the cakes colonize faster.

yeah I guess maybe, but if there's no gas exchange the mycelium will stall, I wouldn't leave them upside down longer than a day or two.

do I sound like I don't have any experience? lol... you're doing fine dude, it shouldn't be that much longer and they'll be fully colonized. are you going to case any of them? i'd highly suggest it considering you have so many jars.
