How to know if substrate drys out
    #5522994 - 04/16/06 10:57 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I have a couple of jars show definate myc. growth while a few (mazatapec) show that my wbs is covered in a white strands that dont seem to connect the wbs together but is almost like it was spray painted on. Does this mean my wbs dried out?

Sometimes when my jars are a little dry the cracked corn in my WBS will begin to turn white around the edges.

Basically you can tell if your jars are to dry by giving them a little shake. If the grains are really dry they will rattle like maracas. I have had jars that I thought wouldn't finish colonizing because they were too dry. They all usually finish. If they grain doesn't fully colonize do to dryness it has never been a problem for me. I would just dump out the uncolonized portions and use the rest as spawn or optionally for a G2G transfer.
