LC isnt showing signs of growth
    #5493255 - 04/08/06 02:31 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

My damn LC isnt showing signs of growth. I inoc it on Tuesday with honey. I put about teaspoon and a half in a pint. It is incubating at like 75. Is it a failure or should i keep waiting? There is litterally no growth, i see the black spores floating around but no myc.

Just wait. I just started doing LCs and it took about a whole week to see a marble sized ball of mcy. Don't worry. It's probably cool.

Yes it can harbor contams. But I have a theory. If Karo that one keeps in the house (and its been open) then how come there is now contams in the pre-opened Karo bottle? Hmmmmmm Makes a person think. What I would do is just put your LC on an oven rack using the "oven method." Sterilize the room, hands, etc and just replace the bandaid. You can find the oven tek on here somewhere.

What is the "oven tek"?

^^^oven tek...

...or if you have plastic lids microwave em to a boil like 3-5 times with the lid loose, then tighten and let cool.

contams usually looked like a milky dust in the solution when i would get contams. (so you kinda know what to look for.)

The thick syrup has alot of surface tension. This surface tension 'suffocates' or 'traps' contams. Just like honey in the wild, it has bacteria and spores in it, but they are unable to germinate or grow because the environment isn't right. Their aren't any anti-biotic, anti-micobial chemicals or compounds in honey and karo.

They simply aren't needed until the solution is diluted and the surface tension of the solution is lowered, bringing much needed oxygen and giving the microbe room to 'breath' and 'streth out'.

Could you please specify or could someone else confirm this?
How do you know very fine dust is a signe of contam? Which contam would this be? I just knocked up a LC that is looking quite milky and dusty. Does this mean its contamed? It doesn't seem that anything's wrong with it. (no smell etc.) So far its to early to see myc anyway... but now that you mention this I wonder if I should be worried
