My jars stopped colonizing. What went wrong?
    #5516047 - 04/14/06 01:25 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I got 4 jars colonizing, and they are about 3/4 done till their fully colonized. But for the past 5 or 6 days now, the 4 jars have all basically stopped growth. They've grown probably a couple milliters larger in the past 5-6 days

I keep them jars at a steady temp. of 26 degrees celcius

I used 2 parts verm, 1 part water, 1 part BRF, and one tea spoon of flaxseed meal in all my jars

Anyone know why my jars have stulled their beautiful growth?

probably ran out of oxygen?
have they got any dry verm layer?
if they do just take off the cover and replace with loose foil (to act as a dust cover) and they should start going again unless i'm wrong...

Yah I got a dry verm layer so I guess I'm going to attempt your suggestion

I also read somewhere that I can place a coffee filter on top of the jar instead of foil

Is this just as efficient?

you don't really need anything on top of that... it's just a precaution (and if 3/4 is already colonized most chances you're not gonna contem the jars so don't worry...)

i'm guessing it would be as efficiant anyway :smirk:

sometimes the co2 released from the mycelium falls to the bottom of the jars. if you lid has holes in it just cover with a coffee filter,(it should be already anyways) or breathable tape, and flip that sucker over. once the co2 makes its way out the bottom (top up-side-down) you should see resumed growth. personally i wouldn't recomend removing the lid if you dont have to... but i guess if you dont have holes in the lid than thats about the only way.
