Kayro syrup tek.

I have read club99's honey-tek. The honey has too much shit in it for a first-timer to notice contams. I used Light Kayro Syrup as it has less "junk" in it ie; wax... Is this carmelized too much to be useful? 40 min 15 psi.

You should be OK. I have used successfully used molasses which is carmalized worse than that.

AFOAF has a couple dozen LC's from the same isolate, ranging from very little karo to much, and if anyone is interested I could post pics with ratios.

I'm interested in seeing pics of u're LC's (perhaps with dates when inoculated)!

Carmelization can cause mutants, ya'll should know that by now. This IS the advanced cultivation section right? Geez...
btw, it's KARO not kayro

It's agreed among the Nook that it CAN CAUSE mutants. Think about it, It's burnt sugar we're talking about here. You're bound to get a mutant someday. Compare it to carcinogens, you can get cancer from that, it's like eating a cigarette. It's not healthy for your myc. Same thing!

The Karo tek is easy as pie. I use a 1qt mason with a filtered lid. Fill the jar 1/3 of the way up with water. Add a couple pieces of glass or marbles to help aid in the break up of mycelical tissue later on. Then add 2-3 tablespoons of light Karo syrup into the jar. Mix the water and Karo syrup up with a clean spoon until it's mixed well. You'll see what I mean. It will look cloudy at first and then it will get clear. Then cover the lid of the jar with foil and pc for 30 minutes @ 15 psi or steam sterilize it for 45 minutes in a large pot. Let the mixture cool well and innooculate it with 1-2cc's of spores or use a piece of tissue from a clone of choice.

Man, I wouldn't take that ratio to heart. I've done so many with different ratio's and they all perform the same more or less. In a 1/2 pint (which I don't recommend) 1 overfilled tablespoon. In a 1 quart, filled 1/3 of the way up with water, 2-3 tablespoons. I do 3 with great performance.

Sorry. I forgot the pic. Look at the clump of tissue. When I go to use it, I just gently swirl it around for about 2 minutes so the tissue breaks up and can be aspirated easily and evenly.

so this is like a liquid culture right? Would you just suck up the syrup into a syringe and inocculate with that? sounds easy! that'd be better than having to buy spore multipliers off the net all the time!

Yep. This is a liquid culture. Swirl for a couple of minutes without getting the filter in the lid wet. This is when the pieces of glass or marbles come in, aiding in tissue beak up when swirling. Then aspirate with a clean, sterile syringe in a gloove box. Then knock up your jars.

won't the syrup be kinda thick to suck into a syringe? Or does adding water thin it out? Probably a dumb question...

The consistancy is the same as water. Every now and then a chunk of tissue will stop up the syringe, but it's not a big deal.

Hotnutz is dead on, listen to him.
AFOAF read so many past about no growth and the such, he had to do a couple dozen jars of both light and dark karo, from almost none, as high as a 1 to 3 ratio.
Guess what?
Edit - sorry, almost all had growth. The obscenly high karo to water ratios did not germ and were discarded. Forgot to mention that.
Every single one has growth, almost all equal, with some performing marginally better than the others, nothing worth adding an extra 30 minutes to for exact ratios across a dozen or so jars.
