clear LC

So I have had my LC in my incubator for about 3 weeks now and just looking at it you can't see anything different. Ive seen pics of LC's where its packed with white mycelium, but in mine I can see some clear stuff in there if i swirl it around a bit. btw i used 200ml of drinking water, 6ml Karo light with vanilla, and 3cc from my koh sumui spore syringe.

vanilla is an alcohol extract. Maybe that had something to do with it. Not positive though.

your portions sound right.. and you can use the kayro w/ the vanilla in it, you can also use vanilla by itself. what temp are you incubating your LC jar at?? should be 80-85 degrees. if it looks like someone spit a white "luggie" into your jar or the beginnings of a "luggie" then its starting to "grow". did you put a marble or something in your jar to stir it up? give it a lite stir every couple days.. sometimes they take a while.

I am not lost.. i am going there looking for it.. and when i get there and find it, i will know what it is.. "The way to stop violence is not to go out and let your head be beaten in but to say, you want to take my life risk yours!" "are you sure u want to eat all them shrooms??" "yes i want to hear what my mind has to say..." remember opions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink.

the temp is around 80 degrees,and i put a marble in the baby bottles with them. i read that you are supposed to shake them after you see the white mycelium start to grow, does it matter if you shake them before it starts to show white growth? and how hard should you shake? like a little spinning of the bottle, or turning the bottle upside down and shake.

should be white. maybe your temps are too low. or the clearish shinngies could be bacteria, but doubtfull. did you PC your LC, or use the microwave/boil tek???

ya white.. it all depends on if your LC is clear or say if you over PC it and the sugars started to carmelize then itll have a yellowish tint to it or depending on what u used to make it the liquid will be colored.. but if your liquid is clear then you should have white chunkies, that to me look like a snowwhite luggie..
