Um Why arnt my jars colonizing
    #5324375 - 02/21/06 02:52 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

Alright so i know there is not a direct answer for this but i was just wondering if you guys have any suggestions to make me feel better. I am using regular PF jars (BRF) its been almost 4 days now and no sign. They are in a small incubator that i made around 82-85 degrees. Am i doing anything wrong here. Put 1.2 CC of spore solution into each jar. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks

My jars took about a week to show any growth, and that was with a grain to grain transfer. Give it time, don't check your shit everyday, and relax!

the more times you open your incubator, the more chance for contams to get in.. exposure to light (although not at the stage you are at) can cause premature pinning which can lead to rotting... everyone is gonna tell you that patience is key

Ok well its a little hard to distingish between the flour and the spots i would thinks. I got some very very very small spots that are lighter than the flour. But i just thought it was the flour.

I recommend taking off the tape as soon as you see any growth. That is if ya used it. Spores can take up to 14-21 days to germinate BTW
